Your second choice is exactly what I've been thinking. I really hope we see this from the off, with an emphasis on one of the two behind Kane pulling wide to support the full backs who've been excellent this season and allowing the other to run onto crosses like Alli's goal against Burnley or Eriksen's versus Hull. I'd be tempted to play Sissoko later in the game to bulldoze their tiring legs; there's not many finer sights than opposition players bouncing off of him as he makes his idiosyncratic runs; Eriksen shouldn't be dropped based on the last few games form and Alli probably won't because he scores goals.

This has been a really strange feeling Christmas period with no Spurs - I've not really paid any attention to the other football due to family commitments over the last couple of days, and so it's felt like there's not been any Christmas football at all. Can't wait until the game tomorrow night when I'm free to watch the whole thing.

Chelsea beat them away comfortably if we want to be a top top team we need to absolutely win this game nothing else.

Do any of you American supporters know what channel this game is on in the US? I'm in Florida at the moment and was hoping to catch the game

Thanks
NBCSN. If you dont get it, i'm sure you can find a bar that might be playing it. There might be a Spurs supporters club around there also that you could look up to see where they watch the games

No game on its own is ever a must win.
Except this one of course:
five of the top six won.
The race has now six horses in it.
We need to win the next two and not lose to Chelsea
or draw against Southampton and win the next two.
Not bothered which
to give ourselves a good chance of staying in it.
Apart from Arsenal they all scored multiple goals too.
Message received and understood.
Go for it you Spurs.
It's now or possible never.
Not that I'm given to overstatement or wrist slitting.

In the words of Han Solo I got a bad feeling about this.
My fear is based purely on the fact that 5 of the top 6 won.
How often do all top 6 teams win? Not very.
I don't think we'll lose but dropping 2 points would ruin xmas lol.
Come on Spurs we're better than them. Time to stand up and show what we've got.

5 of the top 6 won, but they all played piss easy teams. Our game is more difficult. A win would be an excellent result, though I think a draw is more likely.
