I think we'll see Mason rather than Wanyama. Whilst Inter was only a friendly, we looked tasty going forwards and Mason does get up alongside the CF well
Not sure what to expect today. We did well against Inter, but that's hardly any measure. I just hope we put in a real shift, everyone giving a 100% and shakes off that embarrassing defeat to the barcodes back in may.
As per usual on the opening day of the premier league, I'm going to a bloody wedding, and will probably get yelled at by the missus for frantically trying to find an open WiFi connection and a cat video on youtube under the table.
It is really amazing that the new season starts today ! Felt like the pre-season went very fast this time, thanks largely to Copa America and Euro tournaments ! Due to that feel a bit difficult to get motivated for this match. Wish we had signed more high profile players instead of just Wanyama and Janssen. Really feel we need more experienced players to cope with the PL and CL this season. Well, atleast we managed to keep all our first team players from last season. I think this continuity of the team will come in handy as the season progress.
We started last season with a defeat to ManU. Hope we will start this season with a win over Everton. Disappointingly, we drew home and away against Everton last season. Those dropped points came back to destroy our title chance last season. So, we must beat Everton in this match, even if we are playing away. We have excellent record against Everton in recent years, winning 3 and drawing 4 of our last 7 matches against them. So, there is no reason why we cannot win this match.
I think Kane and Lamela will be our key players in this match. It is going to be interesting how Kane will perform in this match as he started very poorly last season. After his poor form for England in Euro2016, he badly need a good performance and goals to lift his morale. In contrast, Lamela has been in brilliant form for us and Argentina in the pre-season. Suddenly he looks very sharp in front of goal. Hope Lamela will continue his goal scoring run in this match. I think Lamela should target to score atleast 10 league goals this season.
Without a doubt, we are going to miss Dembele in midfield during his 4-match suspension. Just hope Wanyama and Dier can cover for him well during his absense. It will be interesting which Alli will turn up for this match. It was his moment of stupidity against WBA which cost us dearly last season. Hope Alli had learned to control his temper by now.
Hope our established defence will be back to their best in this match. A bit worried for Lloris after his demoralising defeat in the Euro final with France. Hope he will be back to his best. Similiarly, wish Vertonghen will come back from his injury problems to partner Alderweireld in defence.
Traditionally, we struggle in our first match of the season. Hope we will put up a good performance and get a good win this time.

Got a feeling we will get done quite convincingly here. 3-1 everton
