Match Threads Spurs vs Man City - FA Cup 4th Round

[easley91]

Our forwards needs to press the shit out of Ortega. He was awful v Newcastle

It's what our forwards do. They press the keeper and backline into errors. Richarlison is a vital part of it and I'm sure he will work his ass off to do it tonight.

Bah, we always beat City.

Can I go full Kevin Keegan?

I'm hoping we can hold them to a draw tonight, get them back to the Etihad and knock them out there.

 

[carpediem991]

My team tonight based on the news would be

Vicario; Porro, Romero, Van de Ven, Udogie; Bentancur, Skipp, Maddison; Kulusevski, Werner, Richarlison

Tough test tonight. If we go through we really have a shot to go deep in the cup with other teams probably busy with international duty.

I'd rather we win tonight and get the job done.

I was at secondary school and it was parents evening night. Had just met with my Maths Teacher who was a massive City fan and I was giving him stick when we were 3 up. He absolutely ridiculed me the day after

I'd taken my Mum out for her 50th birthday, checked my phone half time and smiled.........

Does Timo have the legs to beat Walker?

Does Timo have the legs to beat Walker?

God it would be so like us if he got a double amputation just before this critical match

 

[mattspur1]

There's no extra time tonight. Goes to a replay if scores are level at 90 mins.

Oh!

 

[Westmorlandspur]

Does Timo have the legs to beat Walker?

He probably does. Johnson took Walker on at City and delivered the cross for our 3rd.
What Timo does if he goes past him is anybody’s guess.

 

[Kirito]

Walker is an old man now. Target him the whole game

 

[Col_M]

I feel a little bit dirty, have just signed up to ITVX to stream the game. Need a shower.

 

[Tucker]

I’d feel a lot more confident if Sonny was going to be playing.

He fucking loves playing against City, doesn't he?

 

[Khilari]

On my way to the stadium feeling far less confident than usual when facing City. Mainly because we’re missing Sonny, Madders hasn’t played for months and we may have to cope with a midfield including Højbjerg and Skipp.
I expect a 3-1 loss tonight…

 

[Khilari]

That game was definitely our JFK moment. Noone will ever forget where they were when they watched it.

I was skiing in Morzine and came off the slopes early that day to guarantee a good seat right in front of the telly in one of the local bars in the resort. I got ripped to pieces by all my mates for the remainder of the trip.

Absolutely. Still traumatised from it.

I was in student accommodation on a placement in Milton Keynes, watching the game with an Arsenal fan of all people.

 

[riggi]

On it.

I mean... We have every right to be bolshie about tonight, but none of us should be hard on the lads if we get cuffed.

Only one of those two will play from the start at most. Kulu is back as well don't forget. It will either be Maddison or Kulu in the 10 role with Bentancur and one of Hojbjerg/Skipp. If Maddison starts I expect Kulu for Johnson on the right.
