*** Tottenham Hotspur - Arsenal OMT ***

[chancer]

I'm predicting a 4-1 victory. With Lamela and Eriksen both scoring on their debuts and Soldado with a double...

No clean sheet then? Typical Spurs pessimism.

Have to be somewhat realistic mate, it can't all be smooth sailing ... Or can it? :-k

Football Focus on BBC1 now will soon start dealing with the NLD.

 

[Daisuk]

It's a good time for Arsenal to be playing us. Lots of new signings and no time to integrate them. We're still playing as a team trying to compensate for the loss of our main attacking threat.

I'm not expecting too much, would certainly be happy with a point.

This.

And the Spurs fans singing "Who the **** is Gareth Bale?" when Lamela scores.

Lamela even has the exact phrase emblazoned on his undershirt, which he exposes while celebrating in wild delirium.

 

[Nigeyman]

weird because I usually dread nld's but I am really looking forward to this one.

All they basically said was that we've bought too many players and we're bad people because we've bombed out the Brits.

Repeat of Eriksen vs Szczesny

i'm actually predicting an arsenal victory

Does the team train the day before a match?

Does the team train the day before a match?

Would think so. Don't they usually get a day off after a game? Or do they do light recovery sessions, get massages etc?

yep. its not a bad thing, or even defeatist . its just that they have way to much chemistry and a well drilled and ingrained sense of self / style of play..thats so fluid ....i dont know if a bunch of guys that are new to each other will be able to adequately cope

course we may be wrong. lets hope

i suppose its the best way to be. means if we lose, we expected it. If we draw or get a win, bonus.

 

[Pirate55]

I don't expect a win. Will be ecstatic is we pull it off. Draw most likely.

Agree. A point would keep us unbeaten and still three points ahead of the s cum - and with a better goal difference for a change!

 

[Spaceman]

Does the team train the day before a match?

yes. usually a light session

 

[metalgear]

Does the team train the day before a match?

there's set pieces, formations, tactics etc. but not the hard stuff.

Nothing wrong with a bit of realism. We've got the players to go there and win but I don't expect it in the least.

I don't understand how some Spurs fans are always so confident whenever we play them, especially at their place.
