Another win and another Saldado penalty. The premiership is starting well. Or is it? My concern is that we havent scored a goal in open play yet even against the teams we have played. I know the team is gelling and the exclusion of the wantaway midfielder who shall not be named leaves us with an obvious shortfall of quality in the final third but Townsend Rose and dembele dont fill me with confidence with the way the ball keeps getting given away too easily. Im hoping for drastic improvement in ball possession and shots on target never mind goals from our premiership games... i mention premiership games before i get a scathing attack on our europa cup goals.. but tblisi are more like a division 1 team so that doesnt really count. I expect alot more goals on thursday but lets not assume that sunday is going to be another penalty win.
I hope our new boys understand the importance of playing their hearts out against the noisy neighbours.
COYS!!!!

The new players would not in all honesty have a clue about how important the North London derby is to the supporters, which could be a good thing. They will just approach it like any other game. The goals will soon start to flow, the team is still being put together.

Tottenham can't rely on penalties for the rest of the season
We'll know more after the Arsenal game

we have only played two games.
early season its ALL about points on the board.
last season we had 2 points after 3 games but kept scoring in open play.
this season 6 points after 2 games - no goals in open play.
i know which camp i would rather be in
