Wonder if Wanyama will be given a free pass today? Or will he be correctly sent off in the first minute?
Für eure Sicherheit
I don't get what the face is for, Monreal is slow, too many crosses come into the box from down our right side because of him....look at the way Aurier for instance absolutely tormented him when we played PSG. It seems like utter madness to continue with him, Gibbs links up our attacks better and is far less likely to be beaten for pace.
I think I'll keep up my routine of not watching the pre-match stuff, I can't stomach to hear how wonderful sp*rs are. Any mention of "power shifts in North London" yet?
that line up suggests they want to impose themselves physically in midfield and with two strikers look to close us down high up the pitch. The sensible game plan would be to let them onto us soak up the pressure and catch them cold for pace of which we have more of in our side than they do.
That's always their game plan. We can't sit off or go deep but need to be at them from the off, putting them on the back foot. They rarely cope well with that. And with the front four we have in our line up, it makes no sense to wait solely for the counter. Use it at times of course but we have to take the initiative.
