The lads v spurs (most important fixture this weekend)

I’m as excited for tomorrow as I was for the West Ham game, proper buzz about it, think it’s going to be a great game and a great spectacle in front of the watching world. I really hope we put in a performance on and off the pitch and knock a nail in their relegation coffin.

This. Really hope we turn up and beat them and show the world what we're about again, including people not leaving early yet again would be nice. Would like to think Xhaka will certainly be firing the team up given his Arsenal allegiances
 
I think we'll rip them to shreds.

Will De Zerbi have spurs doing his usual press baiting, or will they flip the script and just attack given what they need. Le Bris might just sit off them if they press bait so we tactically can play our own game

It has the potential to be a cracker for the tactics nerds
 
They really need to win, which means they won't sit back. That suits us..breaking teams down is not our strength.

Be close. but we'll win 2-1. Come from behind as usual.
 
Football Focus saying Brighton players were all really confused by him first 5 games and was a bit of a mess.

If he tries to instil his way of playing straight away I think they might be in trouble.

DZ probably has a good idea of how we will set up, plenty of film available of our recent home games. We on the other hand have no idea how they will set up. I think you’re right, I think we will be cautious until we figure out their game plan. On the plus side there are non better than Xhaka for adaptation and making in game adjustments.
 
Vicario is out apparently so the keeper who had a mare against Atletico will be in. We have to get at these early, don't let them settle. If we go 1-0 up they could buckle.
 
Really hope we're up for this! I look at our remaining 7 fixtures & think I couldn't have picked them better as there's a good mixture of winnable games against lower half teams & ones who are traditional big clubs we could beat if we're proper up for it.
The fact we have some of our best players back available for selection we're more than capable of going on a little run now. I honestly think Europe is there for the taking which is mental but I really really want us to grasp the opportunity.
All starts tomorrow, we need a big performance & if we get it i can't see anything other than a Sunderland win.
 
I think it’s a huge game for us as well. A win, and we’re relatively likely to finish the weekend 2 points from 6th which is extraordinary with half a dozen left to play. It’ll keep the excitement going which is quite important leading into a new campaign.

A loss and it’ll feel like season securely which is still some achievement.

My eyes were on 7th at best, 8th (slightly) more realistically. I didn't even consider 6th, but you're absolutely right.
