Match Threads Man City vs Spurs - Match Thread - Day 23

[Lumiere]

I think that there should be an equivalent of a swear box for this overused phrase.

Can we add "agenda" and "narrative" to that as well please ?

 

[FITZ]

I haven't checked the whole thread to see if anyone else has picked this up, but the banner says "Spurs vs. Man City". I think we already played that fixture

Probably as it makes very little difference at the moment

 

[Serpico]

This City team, on current form, could beat any team in the world right now,

Until they reach the quarters in the CL.

 

[Cavehillspur]

Just realised this is on tonight, didn't think we played until tomorrow

 

[Dr Know]

Most games I’ve been behind sofa. I really don’t want to watch this game but.......


Bloody Tottenham!

 

[0-Tibsy-0]

I wish there were bigger gaps between the depression of watching Spurs play. It seems I just about calm myself before another one rolls around.

Never felt like that before. But I’ll still be tuning in to pray that somehow, by some miracle, we get a result...

 

[yankspurs]

Ugh. Do we have to play this? My stomach already kills. I dont wanna be driven to drink today.

 

[delawarespur]

Its absolutely laughable. People expecting and demanding a shift in the club's mentality, but happy enough to maintain their own defeatist attitude.

Whether its a coping mechanism or wanting to be able to say "I told you we'd lose", I don't know, but it's sad.

This is what frustrates me the most about some of the fan base. It’s as if the club hasn't been in the top 6 the past 10 or so years or that we’ve not been fighting for titles recently. It’s like people think we’re some nothing club. I hate it. We’re s club that should be winning titles consistently, and people think we don’t even deserve to be out on the pitch with city, a team we’ve beaten 3 out of the last 6 times, with one of the 2 losses losses in a CL tie we won. Just pisses me off.

We have a 100 % win rate on a Saturday (in two games) ? ?

 

[fishhhandaricecake]

I can’t decide about later if they’re going to beat us by a cricket score or if we might ‘upset the odds’ and sneak a win ?‍

Just watched the CL QF 2nd leg highlights again. Still one of the best games I've seen, re-watching it is still tense as feck.

Not feeling so good about tomorrow though, city by 2 or 3 me thinks.

I had my 6 month year old on my lap - I think I may have caused permanent damage to him with the leaping and screaming during the game.

You'll probably cause permanent damage to him raising your son as a Spurs fan!

Good luck to both you and your son enjoy the game if you can.

 

[Good Doctor M]

I don't think I've been this convinced that were going to lose a game in years.

Since Jose came in we've had ups and downs, but for sure, there's more downs than ups.

Maybe we can put a display in, and it starts a recovery and we can get ourselves CL football next season, but this feels all a bit like it felt when Tim Sherwood was managing. We've got a good squad, great first 11 but we're frankly, just a bit shit and we're not good to watch and the players body language suggests they're not living it either.

Would love a result but the vibes are bad at the moment and just cannot see us having the mentality to get a result today.

Feels like it could be one of those game where we're multiple goals down early doors.

@bomberH put this in the picture thread; but could apply as well for in here

 

[pedrodelawasp]

After Leicester’s result this afternoon we’re now only 4 points behind 4th placed Liverpool with two games in hand... Shame one of them is later today against City!

Bonkers league in so many ways this season. Would it be too bonkers for today to be the day we come out blazing and banish our slump in form?

Probably, yeah.

Not for the first time I went straight for the anus.

 

[Snarfalicious]

This is going to be so, so bad.

 

[shelfboy68]

This is going to be so, so bad.

I bet you won't get much money on city to win by a big margin

 

[SPURSLIFE]

I don't see the hammering that most seem to expect. I feel an early goal by us and a late equaliser by them for a 1-1 result. I know they beat Liverpool 4-1 in the week but they don't always score a lot of goals. They've had a few 1-0 results when they have scored early and were expected to go on and get 3 or 4 and haven't especially against what you would expect a lot inferior opposition. I'm quite optimistic about this game.
