***Spurs v Champions Official Match Thread***

[nottsblue]

Come on City

We’ve an awful record at Spurs and today is as good a day as any other to rectify this. Scoring a goal would be a start

With Everton getting a surprise win yesterday it gives us the incentive, if we really need one, to close the gap and ramp up the pressure

Fancy us to get a scrappy 1-0
Gundogan to score

[Original Dub]

Now would be a great time for kev and foden to hit form

[CTID Hants]

Dirty bastard Richarlison could start, coming back from a hammy.

But thankfully that cunt Moura who likes to score against us , is supposedly not match fit

Madley in as ref, so a bit more experienced than some of the recent new chaps. He's not much history with us except during the Everton 1-1 recently where Bernardo, KDB and Haaland got a yellow a piece (4 of theirs also booked)

Here's hoping this becomes yet another happy hunting ground for Erling

[gmercer1]

VAR on overdrive today after the Arse result yesterday

[blues2win]

Foden not in the squad today

[blues2win]

Perrone on the bench. He must have impressed in training.

[blues2win]

Ake has a muscle injury. FFS. Not serious apparently.

[CTID Hants]

XI | Ederson, Lewis, Walker (C), Akanji, Ake, Rodrigo, Bernardo, Mahrez, Grealish, Alvarez, Haaland

SUBS | Ortega Moreno, Dias, Phillips, Gundogan, Laporte, De Bruyne, Gomez, Perrone, Palmer

[blues2win]

Bum steer on Ake. He’s in thank goodness.

[CTID Hants]

Not sure i like KDB on the bench

[blues2win]

Kevin benched. Blimey. Walker as CB? Never second guess Pep. Alvarez and Haaland starting.

[Kippax Sean]

Kdb niggle or tactical? That line-up is screaming direct fast counter attacking football. Not sure what we'll get though.

[PeterParker]

What is that shit on the back ffs

[blues2win]

Would have liked to see Laporte playing. In Pep we trust

[john@staustell]

Not sure i like KDB on the bench

Trouble is he has one brilliant assist interspersed by 20 move breakdowns and giveaways

[Outcast]

Would have liked to see Laporte playing. In Pep we trust

Except when he has brain farts

[blues2win]

Spurs won’t have a clue on how City are going to line up.

[s1ty m]

I have no idea what that line-up is.

[nottsblue]

WTAF is that centre defence

We have Laporte and Dias on the bench. Truly baffling playing Walker there. If you’re fit enough for the bench you’re fit enough to start.

And no KDB. Bernado needs to be buzzing round like an angry bee this afternoon. Can see our midfield being overwhelmed

Let’s see what happens

[nottsblue]

Spurs won’t have a clue on how City are going to line up.

I’ll bet three or four of our coaching set up don’t either
