Tottenham Vs Burnley: Match Thread

[doctor stefan Freud]

Winks is a good prospect but expecting him to dictate premier league games after only a few appreances in the 1st team is unrealistic

That's not exactly what I said

I must admit I've no idea really how Burnley have played this season other than enjoying seeing them beat Liverpool.

So it will be interesting to see how we line up. I wonder if we will go the same route as Wednesday or now try two up top with Janssen being back.

It's not certain Janssen will be back IIRC.

Not exactly but by keeping a team on the back foot for the majority of the game is a big ask for a young player

 

[CosmicHotspur]

I think we will edge this by a goal.

Whilst this will probably be harder than the Swansea and Hull games, as Burnley are usually well-organised, it is important to recognise their abysmal Away form this season. They have lost every away game this season bar one, which was against United, who had 10 men for the last 20-25 minutes.

They lost 3-0 to Chelsea, 3-0 to Leicester, 3-1 to Southampton and 4-0 (!) to West Brom (!!).

Fully now expecting a 1-2 win for Burnley.

I'll be annoyed if he rests anyone but with Poch you never know.

True. He could go with three at the back with Wanyama shielding, with us winning 3-0.

I'm either getting very illiterate or my iPad keyboard is playing mind games with me. Or both.

Yes no disrespect to them but they are down near the bottom and "i think we'll edge it" etc etc - personally i will be disappointed if we don't comfortably see this game to bed at home to Burnley ffs.

Nice 5-0 would put our GD in the mix with the 4 teams above

That's like a lawro prediction

 

[fatpiranha]

Burnley have scored 1 goal away from home all season and we have the best defensive record in the league. Referee Kevin Friend has only awarded a single penalty in the league all season. We really should keep a clean sheet here .

10 mins to team news. Im not expecting any changes to be honest. Although I'd like to see Winks start.

And enjoying it pal.......
