The battle of the high lines ,Brighton starting to feel the lose of all there stars only Welbeck left 2-2
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Its gonna be funny to see both defensive lines on the half way line together. Talk about squeezing play

Mitoma will probably cause us problems

I'm not under any illusions about the 5 game winning streak. Aside from the United game, we gave a lot of chances away to the opposition each time. At some point that's surely got to bite. It's also hard to know how good that United performance was because by all accounts they were all over the place.

This one against Brighton, weird as it sounds, is a bigger test than going to Old Trafford. My only worry is that when we play sides comfortable in possession, we tend to fold. As soon as we face a team that wants to play on the front foot as much as we do, it goes wrong. Brighton create so many chances that against this Spurs side, they'll surely rack up more than 2 goals.

I'm going Brighton for this one. 3-1
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Fridge, you forgot to mention the absolute hateful of clear cut chances Spurs also missed in the same games. They could easily havecscired six against both Leicester and Newcastle.

Spurs should be to strong if they play to their best.

3-1 Spurs.

I think we'll create chances. I've got no doubt about that. Whether we'll take them is another thing, particularly as we'll really miss Sonny in this game given how high a line they play. We need someone who can run in behind who has the ability to put the ball away and Werner only does the first part .

If we're as open as we have been for each of the last 5 games, even though we've won them, I guarantee you against this Brighton team we'll concede at least 2. I just don't think we'll be clinical enough to score 3 to win the game. The way we defend is still a major concern for me.

Not sure Brighton are that good, as another poster said they couldn't beat Ipswich or Nottm Forest at home, and Spurs are much better than both of them.

I get you are a bit nervous, because this is Spurs we are talking about. But last month they have looked really good, Coventry aside with a weakened side.

Whenever I feel confident I get worried but I feel we won’t lose Sunday

No game is easy in the prem so a draw away from home is always acceptable and I’d be happy with that

Do think their new manager is struggling a bit ….its pretty damming that the more time passes with him in charge they seem worse , especially defensively

I have absolutely no idea what is going to happen in this game.
I do not know who the "manager" is going to pick.
I hear Son is out.
And nobody knows which Vicario is going to show up!

Finally, none of you lot know either!! ....

Why is "manager" in quotation marks? He is actually the manager?

Same Vicario as always will show up - brilliant shot stopper, great short passing. Iffy long kicking and not brilliant coming out and claiming high balls. But he's our guy!

He is definitely getter better at commanding his area but still room for improvement but the signs are good

His distribution , long kicking, definitely needs to improve but we keep it short most the time anyway but the odd out ball in his locker would be a bonus

Overall he is our best keeper we have had in a long time

Agreed. I'd actually rate him somewhere around 4th/5th best in the league.

None of you remember that flappy panic handling the ball outside the area?....

We go again as v united but with Moore & Bissouma ready to play as both were exceptional on Thursday
