Lighthouse Posted 14 December, 2013 Share Posted 14 December, 2013 Sunday afternoon for this one, early 1330 kick off. Spurs did the double over us last year with a Bale wonder strike earning them an undeserved win at the Lane last time out. He also scored the opener at St Mary's last October. Jay Rodriguez scored his first ever Premier League goal in this fixture I believe. For me Lallana, Fonte and Morgan should be back in the starting 11. A winnable game for sure but I wouldn't be too upset with a draw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saints_is_the_south Posted 14 December, 2013 Share Posted 14 December, 2013 Had it in my head that we'd win this one for a while. If we can repeat our last home performance against City in this one then we certainly give ourselves a great chance of taking all 3 points. 2-1 Saints.

Lighthouse Posted 14 December, 2013 Author Share Posted 14 December, 2013 Surely Davis is undroppable the way he's been playing. I'd have him in the 3 behind Osvaldo along with JRod and Lallana, the latter 2 being in excellent form themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has been very poor when I have watched Spurs play this season. I think the physical presence of Wanyama will be missed against Sandro and Dembele.

S-Clarke Posted 15 December, 2013 Share Posted 15 December, 2013 I cannot get over how bad Spurs look, the worst team performance I've seen in years. Utterly clueless in possession and position. I'll be devastated if we don't beat this lot based on what I'm seeing today, especially with their suspensions and injuries. If we play our game with the intensity we do, we should beat them off the pitch and probably get AVB sacked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ericb Posted 15 December, 2013 Share Posted 15 December, 2013 Not sure how i feel about the chance of AVB being sacked. It could work against us either way, if he's gone then the players will be playing for their place, and maybe a new manager. If he isn't it'll be last chance for AVB and he'll have to win. Reckon we might actually get beaten in this one, but it'll be close. I'm going 1-2 spurs and a dirty niggly game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
