ArnieArdiles- Champions League
Can we ever win there ? ...
Chris Foy is the referee.
Mark Clattenberg the 4th official
They now have RVP and when fit, he scores for fun.
Their manager and players cheat, aided by cheating officials and when you throw in our loser's mentality the odds are well stacked against us.
But hold on, this is a different Spurs , this is AVB and Steffan Freund's Spurs team. They don't do this, 'before you step out on the pitch defeatist Bollox'.
Vertonghan: In time, our manager not only wants us to win games but to also dominate our opponents.
We may well be along way away from that but there is something about the AVB Spurs set-up I'm very much liking in it's infancy . Although we're not very fluid in our play so far, understandably so when losing the skills of VDV and Modric, I've noticed a stronger physical presence. We're now a big side apart from Defoe and Lennon.
So I reckon we're gonna smash them Manc fookers up !!
COYS!!!!!

The following Man Utd players will be out injured on Saturday
A Valencia
Rafael
N Vidic
P Jones
A Young
C Smalling
1-1 and was in autumn 2005. Silvestre scored for them in the first half after a Robbo fumble (sign of things to come?); Jenas equalised from a great free-kick in the second half. Perhaps the real first time that the Kinga and Dawson CB partnership started getting real praise and recognition across the football world. Davids had a blinder as well.
We were second in the league.
Jol's heady days; a week before or after our game against Arsenal when we drew 1-1 with Pires (again!) equalising a goal scored for us by The King. Again Robbo fumbled...sigh.
This is AVB's opportunity. Only Rooney and RVP are significantly better than our best in similar positions. Scholes? I am not dreading this match, I am looking forward to it. I did not like the chummy relationship of our previous manager with Fergie so I expect no quarter given in this game.

SuneJim- Champions League
Have to say i've noticed we have a much larger, phyical squad than we've had in years. So we really do have strength in depth,,,on all levels.
We have no little skill in the team as well,,,, so the squad is a more complete now than at any time i can remmber.
I also agree with the comments about AVB & Freund going there with a different mentality than we've gone to OT in recent seasons. I'm excited.
AVB's Team will be ,,,,,,,,,,,,
Friedel
Walker Gallas (But i want Caulker) Vertonghen Naughton
Sandro Dembele
Lennon Dempsey Bale
Defoe
That team in the right formation can cause The Manc's problems bring it on.

Lought & Jim, you look at the team Lought posted and your preferred 11 Jim and Jim's looks the much better. From Loughts I would pick Mabbutt ahead of Gallas, Lineker ahead of Defoe, Gazza ahead of Dempsey and that's about it. Yes we have reason to be quietly hopeful for something from this game, and as Lought has always alluded to - Redknapps Spurs always seemed to looked troubled when faced with a lot of so called "big teams" so I hope AVB & Steffan.F can instil a stronger mentality into the players for these type of games . . . .

I can not see us getting a result here. I think the players need a bit more time to gel before we can think of getting a result in a game like this, had it been a bit later in the season then we might have picked up at least a draw. I don't think those games against the lesser teams, Norwich etc, gave me any impression that we could go out and beat the likes of United or City, but God I hope I am wrong. Still a bit of work for AVB to do but he will get there and I think the future is bright. I would not play Lloris, not an ideal game to play your first premiership game, and if he dropped a clanger it could knock his confidence.

Bang on with pretty much everything there Len, including Lloris.
I'm hopeful, ever hopeful, but think this game is a little too early in our development to be an accurate guage.
Signs of further improvement are what I 'expect' from this game. A solid, disciplined game with some creativity. We get a draw I will be pleased, a win over the moon with. I can't see us getting anything if we play poorly, so a draw or win will be because we acquitted ourselves well.

any point will be a bonus. no pressure on the lads today. plus we seem to play better away from the lane where some fans boo at half time if we not winning.

Len & Ion
I understand what you guys are saying and are looking to temper any unreasonable expectations. Agree, away to ManUtd may well be to early in the season for this team but I've got hopes we will perform,keep it tight and stop RVP & Rooney.
I can see us getting something from our counter attacking but most of all, I can see us profiting at set-pieces from the likes of Caulker and Verts.
Spurs score from set-pieces , did I really just write that ?

We're winning 2-0, playing good keeping them from to many attempts on target.
We know they're going to come back at us now with everything they've got, simulation for penalties, officials to help them out with Fergie time if it's needed etc. COYS!!!
