Tottenham Hotspur vs Aston Villa Pre-Match

[john e]

Spurs don’t play attacking football do they sit back especially in the first half

So if we are up for it, we can get at them in the first half and try and hang on in the second, assuming that in the first half one of our prolific super strikers has found the net once or twice.
Which would be nice

What about sitting back ourselves and lure them into our sound defensive grid and then we suddenly counterattack. A counter-counterattacking strategy.

[Meanwood Villa]

Not optimistic about this one. Would take a point.

Yep unless they change approach they’ll try to sit in for the first half and hit us hard in the second.

I think it will be tight 1:0 to them

Martinez plays we get something, Olsen starts 2 or 3 nil.

Olsen doesn’t stop us scoring goals does he?

He does in so far that his kicking is probably the worst I have seen from a professional footballer.  Clearly the defence don't trust him and are trying to cut him out.

Had Watkins or Bailey put away their numerous chances against Liverpool Olsen would have been defending a 2 or 3 goal lead.

That’s irrelevant the point I made. Prove to me who the keeper is stops us from creating chances and scoring goals.

There's still time this year for another ban.

Urgghhhh think I’m writing this one off because UE will make a few changes in view of the Wolves match. Olsen doesn’t inspire confidence but we have no backup which should be addressed this week.
We don’t have the squad depth - Spuds 3-0 without breaking sweat.
Great start to the year :-(
