Spurs away build up

[BigChief]

Agreed, instead of marking Suarez out of the game they will focus on cutting out the supply completely. They'll target Allen and Coutinho and let Henderson/Sterling* have as much of the ball as they want while pressing us high.

*That's not a criticism of Hendo/Sterling, just that their decision making is not up there with Coutinho and maybe even Allen.

That's a dangerous game to play, if Suarez is in the mood he'll ****ing kill 'em. These are ****ing ****, we should beat them.

These are dog turd, dont have one good player. However, neither did Middlesborough and we never won there either. Time to get over the "what can go wrong will go wrong" hoodoo. Lets smash these cunts.

[Shaggy]

They have definitely become our bogey team. Hate playing them. It feels too big a game for us to win, as if it'd be too good to be true. A win would give us masses of belief.

[dww]

We've struggled a bit when we have had to work in confined spaces. Spurs high line, if they organize it well, could be difficult for us. Will be interesting to see if we try to use Moses on one wing to push them back to make space for Suarez/Coutinho to play in.

They haven't been playing well enough for us to have to be afraid of them but talk of them being **** is clearly an exaggeration.

I can't remember the last time Liverpool won at WHL. Its a game I always write off as a no point gain.

They seem to be struggling at the moment though, but Soldado has the air of Pieluigi Casiraghi about him. Bound to get an open play goal, isn't he?

[Patricks_Berger]

We should definately play with Raheem.

AVB loves to play with a high back line - even more so against us as he will want to squeez the space in the midfield to prevent Suarez and Countinho from getting on the ball too much.

That means there will be big spaces for Sterling to use his pace to get in behind. Hopefully his finishing will be a bit better than on Saturday.

Vertonghen's been playing left back though. Dawson and Chiriches at CB, with Kaboul another option. Rose isn't fit so that Naughton would play left back if Vertonghen is out.

He has, but I think he would play CB if they didn't have any available. I think he's being played at LB as they don't have a LB.

The Mail said they only had Dawson fit to play CB at the moment.

[baitman]

Sterling played well against West Ham and has been steadily improving his performances each week, no reason at all to drop him.

i see what you did there. :subtle:

I absolutely hate playing Tottenham. It feels like every time we play them one of their players scores the best goal of their career. It's grim.

Haha yep. Erik Edman, Assou-Ekotto etc. Score once every 5 years and always a ****ing belter against us.

[Pablo]

Exactly. That goal Modric scored was another too.

[Bernardicus]

This is how they lined out in their last match with Sunderland:

..................Lloris.......................
Walker..Capoue..Dawson..Naughton
..........Dembélé...Paulinho............
......Lennon...Holtby...Chadli..........
..................Defoe......................

"Oh when the Spurs" in slow motion makes them all sound thick, like they're struggling to remember the words. Or yawning when they sing it.
