Match Threads Leeds Vs Spurs - Match Thread - Day 35 - KO 12:30

[worcestersauce]

The key to our run in is momentum, we have to win every game so chopping and changing will be counterproductive.
The Sheffield United game gave us the opportunity to build a bit of rythm in the side and if we can carry that into the Leeds game we will only get better. We've got good players, certainly good enough to win any of these individual games and they need to feel that. I honestly believe it's not all about tactics now it's about the players, it's about their belief, it's about their spirit, it's about momentum
Same team today give or take one, with the same attitude and we'll beat Leeds.

Forgot bullet adds a poll to the match thread, so I have now added one.

 

[chrisd2k]

They'll look to control midfield with numbers. I wonder if we're smart enough to do the same?

 

[sidford]

Supposedly Philips and Rafinha are injury concerns, if they are out we have a good chance as they are their best 2 players.
Win today would be great for top 5 and maybe we could dream a little bit higher

 

[Gassin's finest]

I feel Biesla will be far too canny for our Ryan here. Playing Bale/Kane/Son should be more than good enough for any game, but Leeds' results against top opposition recently doesn't bode well.

Bit of a school master versus pupil matchup.

 

[Tucker]

Micheal Oliver sigh ?

It’s the dream team of Oliver on ref duty and Tierny on VAR. This game may very well descend into a farce.

 

[stormfly]

7-5 Spurs.

 

[mumfordspur]

Are you the one who wrote if Bale starts we win 4-0 last week?

Yes he has given one of our goals to Leeds

 

[Wsussexspur]

Real chance to get our name in the mix to finish in the top four after last nights result and Chelsea playing city today… with that in mind fully expect us to lose. Have no faith in this team winning must win games like today. Sadly let us down too many times over the past 2/3 years.

Presuming we're going to wear the green kit today. Apart from Sheffield United away have we won in the league wearing that kit?

It makes me think of failure.

Early KO (PANIC!!)

Win all our games and we’ll make top 4. Of that doesn’t fire the lads up, nothing will.

 

[Spurs_Bear]

Can see a game that is open as a barn door with Son sweeping in two goals from close range coming in from the left.

 

[chrissivad]

Numbers in midfield, squad numbers:

Hojbjerg + winks + Sissoko = 30
Hojbjerg + Lo Celso + Dele = 43
Hojbjerg + LoCelso + Ndombele = 49

So 49 wins!

 

[Jamturk]

I fear for us in this game, they press like hell and we haven't coped well with this very well this season.

They're terrible defending set pieces though.

 

[The Apprentice]

Sissoko cannot play. He’s the least press-resistant player in history.

 

[sebo_sek]

Morning turds!

A few weeks ago missing the last 15 minutes of a game felt like an act of mercy. Today I’ve got to pick my daughter up at 2, and I’m already feeling embittered about it. Things move fast

She'll understand...
Your wife won't but we'll cross that bridge when we get to it.

 

[C. P. Harris]

I hope GLC is played deeper instead of Winks, also with Ndombele/Hojbjerg, and Ali in the attacking midfield position. That's out best midfield imo. It means that Hojbjerg has two players next to him that are both better than Winky and Sissy.

Fulham as well I think
