So the plan is put in a huge bid for Ighalo this morning and tell West Brom Chairman we have done it so he can inform the media and thus he becomes unsettled and bobs your uncle!

But on a serious note I do think we have a decent chance as Warford won't be used to playing 2 games in a week at such a high level like we are and it will test them.

Would be happy with a draw though

No way is Watford our toughest away game so far, OK they are in a bit of useful form, but they have only won three home games. They have a useful striker, but I think this game will be a lot easier than Goodison Park at the weekend. If Spurs apply themselves properly than I can see 2-0 Spurs.

I can see us losing with Watford's recent form, but I hope we win!

very tough game.

probably would take a point although with everton away up next and then lesta back to back twice in 3 days we need to really chase the win

It shouldn't be. Their 2nd game in 3 days (as it is ours) where they've quite possibly put a lot of effort into to the game at Chelsea. It won't be easy but it shouldn't be tougher than Arsenal away.

I can see Capoue and especially Gomes being well up for this match and wanting to badly prove a point

Whenever Gomes tries to hard he always flaps one

Think this could be a very tough game. BBC are saying dembele may be a doubt which would make it even harder. If he's injured I'd quite like to see the below, though it could be too attack minded.

Lloris
Walker Vert Alder Davies
Dier Alli
Lamela Eriksen Son
Kane

Alternative could be to put bentaleb in place of Son and push Alli to the no.10 spot. Could be too much too soon for Bentaleb though

If we are gonna cement our top 4 position or aim even higher then we should be going to Watford and winning. Its only Watford FFS. Arsenal beat them easy there and beating Liverpool is nothing to shout about. We are better than them in every position and are playing well.... 2-0.. No problem... COYS

Why is it our toughest game so far?
===============


Sizzle is right

Watford blitzed the mouser Liverpool easily and got a draw against out of sorts Chelsea, and I think both results show how good a side they are

But if you let Watford play, they will tear into you

Therefore we need Dier and Mason/Dembele to be strong today.

It actually suits us to be away for this game

I can image it to be a tough first 20 minutes where defense and midfield will stifle each other, but they will feel edgy playing at home and having to dictate the pace

We can finish them off with sucker blows on counter attacks

Good day to be playing. Would've loved to be still involved

Would be so spursy for Gomes to have a blinder today!! Expecting a very close game, maybe only one goal in it..:

Toughest game so far was Chelsea........nothing to do with them but it was the 64 hours between walking off a pitch in the back of beyond and walking out at WHL

More worried about Capoue than Gomes. He's started to look like the player we bought, just shows what a run in the team can do.

It will be a close one, we will need to play better in the first 20 minutes than in the last couple of games...with Ighalo they have the ability to punish us otherwise

If Spurs are serious about this top four or higher malarkey then winning at Watford should be a given. Spurs have a lot tougher away games on the horizon, Everton, Liverpool, Chelsea, City, Stoke, West Ham etc. Hopefully the management is not as scared of Watford as a lot of our supporters seem to be. Happy with a point FFS Chronic.

Its not being scared, having a degree respect for the opposition is never a bad thing. Watford have had some decent results this year, to think they're just going to roll over when we turn up is ridiculous.

degree of respect*

We ended up winning but with 10 men Watford did enough to deserve a draw! Anyway, our chances of finishing in the top four have increased so I'm pleased.

Tough game due to route one tactics from Watford and thuggish behaviour throughout.

Well done Spurs
