Match Threads Spurs vs Bournemouth

Welcome to the Spurs vs Bournemouth Match Thread! COYS!

This should be a really good game, they are starting to click under their new manager. Hopefully we get a response from Thursday's result. Would be great to end the year in the top 5, on 39 points and only 6 points off top.

By comparison, after 20 games last season, we were 6th, on 33 points and 17 points behind Arsenal. And just starting out shitty 2nd half of the season. Definitely in a better place this season.

COYS.

Son needs to play a whole lot better than he did against Brighton.

 

[sidford]

Myself and wife coming over for the game sitting in south stand can't wait az it's the one stand I haven't been in yet. If you see a 6ft 4 lad with Dumbo ears & a huge nose with a 5ft missus out of his league say hello.

Originally booked it after around 8 games so was pretty confident we would have a handy win to start a great NYE in London but bloody hell now I'm bricking it with the injuries and how well Bournemouth now looking.

Hopefully Son remembers how to play football for the game after how he was versus Brighton. We really need him tomorrow as we will likely need 3 goals to have a chance at winning.

 

[Mr Pink]

No doubt theyll get a goal and will be a real threat.

We need our front three to be much better and Lo Celso to have one of his good games.

Ange will demand a response, 3-1 Spurs.

Very disappointed that wasn't your description of the missus.

Enjoy the game.

Bournemouth have tended to have less possession of the ball than their opponents in recent games and they have given up a lot of shots too. In their last five games:

They had 37-63 % possession and allowed 11 shots in their 2-2 with Villa.

40-60 away at far from possession-based Palace and allowed 16 shots in a 2-0 win.

31-69 v United and allowed 20 shots which are ridiculous stats in a 3-0 win.

67-33 away at Forest but Forest had 10 men from 23rd min, yet they still had 11 shots in a 2-3 win for Bournemouth.

And in their last game they beat Fulham 3-0 with 42-58% possession and Fulham had 8 shots to their 16. This tells me that we will have most of the ball tomorrow and we will have plenty of chances and we need to stick them away because Bournemouth on counter attack can be deadly. We will need a mature and controlled performance to take the points. I think we will get this done tomorrow. Tottenham Hotspur 3 Bournemouth 0.

Won 6 and drawn 1 in their last 7 apparently.

All runs come to an end.

Spurs 2-1 Bournemouth

Massive game tomorrow against an in form Bournemouth. We are down to the bare bones as a squad and will need to be clinical early on as we wont have the options off the bench late on.
I remember battering them early on at home in April only for them to score 3 from their 6 attempts on goal which is my fear for tomorrow.
They carry a threat and we will likely concede with a makeshift defence. I think we will need to get 3 so a quick start is a must.
A win would massively aid our league campaign as we should start to see players return (and hopefully recruited) by the time we face Utd/Brentford.
Im going 3-2

They are scoring for fun atm, we can’t hit a cows arse with a banjo. We need Richy, Son and Johnson taking their chances, or this could horrible.

We've scored in every game. It's not scoring that's the issue, it's keeping them out. Imo

 

[goughie1966]

Keep Solanke quiet and we should have no problems. Never thought I'd end up writing that sentence a few years ago.

4 goals off being the top scorers in the league, imagine if we’d had Maddison available we would be clear but still - scoring isn't an issue.

Having a championship level defence might be the problem.

 

[matty74]

Semenyo is a big threat for them

We've scored 10 in our last 4, they've scored 11.

 

[BH_spurs]

We are probably going to need at least 3 goals for a chance of a win given the defence we will have out and the fatigue that will set in towards the end of the game.

It will be easier for us to spot you if you could just put a photo of your missus up please?

 

[Navy Spur]

I hope not, but I think the two days extra rest and lack of real options off the bench will play into Bournemouth’s hands.

We looked leggy against Brighton and will almost certainly be the same tomorrow!

 

[mattstev2000]

Son needs to play a whole lot better than he did against Brighton.

That's applicable to the whole team.

You do realise we have scored in every single game this season, right? We scored two on Thursday and had two disallowed for offside. We'll carve them open like we always do. It's the other end that will be the difference in how many points we pick up.
