Tottenham (H) - Mon 19 Aug 8pm - Pre-Match Thread

[Fox92]

We can beat these.

 

If there's one "big" team I want to play first it's Spurs. And they will come at us and be open.

 

I'm quietly confident. Up the Foxes.

[WigstonWanderer]

Difficult to be anything other than pessimistic. This season is shaping to be one to be endured rather than enjoyed. I’ll be watching all the matches though and hoping for a miracle.

[Angus Scott]

Having been to Lens & seeing a side devoid of passion, skill, falling out among themselves, leading to one of the worse performances I've ever seen from a Premier League team, it's very hard to see anything but an easy away win.

I have a free £10 Skybet & at the moment I'm thinking of putting it on a 5-0 Spurs win

[Sol thewall Bamba]

It's with a heavy heart I must return to confirm that IT'S A LOSS! 

[Gamble92]

I can't remember the last time I come on here and felt anything other than miserable after.

 

 

[ronnup]

Itll be bonkers I reckon. 4 all. A few reds. Absolutely mental

 

 

[lnkstern]

I expect, irrespective of the tactical plan that the manager expects to eventually employ, the integration of new players will cause choppiness and disjointedness for the first six games or so.  The players will also require time to learn each other's tendencies and preferences.

 

But I do hope we get some bits of individual creativity that will lead to some goals.  That and a few lucky bounces, and maybe some mistakes by the opposition defenders.

 

I do not believe in all the gloom and doom.

Cooper might pull Top into midfield.

I can safely say if we start Faes we will lose more than 3-0 we he gets turned about 8 times, and does thst arms in the air thing, stupid woolly haired twit! 

[Kasey Keller]

In for a reet pumping

[sbfox]

Looking forward to it. Football is back! Come on! 

 

First few games are a total lottery - said it elsewhere but wouldn't be surprised if we won or lost 3 - 0.

That’s ok, we’ve got real depth and quality on the bench….. oh. Erm. Can we get it postponed maybe? 

[Ric Flair]

A defence of Okoli and Faes is extremely scary. Vestergaard has to play whilst Coady is out.

A defence with any of them in is pretty terrifying

 

We're gonna get absolutely smashed to bits regardless of the team that's put out.

[em9999]

The team is nowhere near good enough to survive .. hope I'm wrong but I really ain't

I agree - We need some composure at the back. Im sure Okoli is the succession signing to Faes because he’ll be off end of the season, rather than Okoli a starter for this one. 

[Muzzy_no7]

If Ndidi AND hamza start I won’t be watching it. 
 

EDIT: If hamza starts and is named captain I’m finished with the club until further notice.

I'm so up and down with links to many great sounding players and then silence that for the first time I don't care. I'll be there of course but my enthusiasm is waning. LCFC inspire me soon!
