Think we'll lose, would have to be the scum that end our unbeaten run. Would definitely take a draw.

I still fucking hate them.

I can only echo the sentiments of the above posts. Fuck 'em, fuck 'em right in the face.

Always feel the nerves when the NLD is on the horizon. I don't feel we're favourites, given its at the Emirates, but I've never felt more confident of going there and competing well. Not saying I expect us to win, but I expect us to give them a real game and certainly don't expect us to get well beaten.

Both sides have injury issues but really I don't think their injuries are as significant as the press are making out. Bellerin is and probably Ramsey, but the rest I'm not sure about. Ok they've lost some pace in losing Walnut but he's rotated with Giroud anyway - and the latter is in reasonable form for them. Its their bench that will be mostly affected leaving them short in game changing options if anything.

If their right side is Campbell and Debuchy, we must be looking to exploit that. Sincerely hope Rose is fit so he can pin Debuchy back allowing Eriksen to get space inside him. Could be a key battle in deciding the game.

Anyway, I think we'll have to weather a strong opening from them after their humbling mid week. Negotiate that and we could chip away at that fragile confidence.

I just have a feeling we're going to nick this. Think we saved some energy during the week even if Kane look tired and providing we don't concede early I think our fitness levels could be a real advantage late on in the game - and maybe with Son coming on to add some directness and pace.

I'm going for a 2-1 win. 1-1 for a long period of the game and a late Eriksen free kick to win it.

Ok, IMO for this match we need Dembele to drop into the middle and help dominate with Dier. I would also play Son wide and Eriksen centrally. Loads of creativity and Son providing pace:

Lloris
Walker Toby Verts Rose
Dier Dembele
Lamela Eriksen Son
Kane

Good team and the one I would put out. I would definitely prefer a not quite match fit Son to the Alli who turned up against Anderlecht

I know Son was poor(or looked rusty) against Anderlecht, I would play him against Arsenal or at least bring him on early

They potentially may play Gabriel instead of Koscielny which will a big loss but have a slow CB pairing in Mertesacker and Gabriel with Debuchy who can't defend well. That Left wing with some pace could damage them

Most years we go on about their injuries, their results beforehand, what Walnut has had for dinner, if we will be wearing our lucky undies. It's a derby. Form goes out the windows and injuries count for less. 10 0 Spurs.

Fuck em HARD! I want to see passion and tempered aggression from our lads on Sunday. I don't usually say this but I wouldn't mind if we broke legs their legs

Arse, Chavs and spammers, I hate these games and they happen to be our next 3 fixtures. It might not be a happy place in the dillspur household over the next few weeks
