didn't think you'd beat chelsea, a jose bus parking masterclass but surly you'll come out to play arsenal.
they really seem to be firing blanks at the moment.
but knowing jose you will continue to build your most boring team credentials.

We’re the second highest goal scorers in the league - if you want boring then rewatch Leeds vs Arsenal if you can stay awake

I don't think there will be any complacency in our approach to the game as we will be up for it, but yes if we go a couple ahead and make it look easy, that's when there may be a danger of complacency. Hopefully we'll have learnt from the West Ham game however.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I suspect we will go a goal up and Jose will strangle the life out of the game knowing how much they struggle to break teams down, we will catch them on the break and either win 2-0 or they will nick a late consolation.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I'll be disappointed if we aren't ruthless if we take the lead and just keep battering them.

I’m not too concerned about this game, Ian very confident that all our players will be up for it and give it everything. As long as we are not unlucky then that application will be enough as they are a poor team that leaks plenty of goals.

The acid test will be at Anfield where for me we can lay down a marker by beating them. That game is just a little over 2 weeks away and will be hugely important for our confidence.

Yes, more or less this

Leicester, Wolves and Liverpool will be a good game for us.

Arsenal, if Jose doesn't make the subs too early could be another 6-1 for us

Mourinho will have Spurs well schooled in his master plan for beating the Arsenholes. Expect tight defence and fast breaks.
Perhaps more midfield possession than in the Chelsea game. Expect to see Bale on the pitch at some point.NDombele in attacking midfield, Sissoko sweeping up behind.
Spurs 3 - Arsenholes 0.

Maybe Sissoko scores in this one.........wouldn't that be nice!

Tottenham are in a title race

Arsenal are in a relegation battle

It should be a comfortable victory for Tottenham
It will probably be the most one sided NLD in history

Arsenals forward line is so poor it will feel like Spurs have extra defenders.

Son will have a festival running at Luiz or Holding and Bellerin.

Wait for Arsenal to try some feeble sideways stuff
Give the ball away to Kane who pings it to Song and off he goes for a number of one on ones with Leno.

5-0. Spurs.
Sad to say it but that is the reality

I suspect Arteta will set you up defensively and will look to get to HT at 0-0. I think we will win but it will be the usual tight, hard fought and tense affair. If we take the lead then I think Jose will get us to shut the game down rather than go for the jugular - try and conserve energy for later matches.

If you sit back and hit us on the break then you'll score a hatful.

This is your opportunity to really put us to the slaughter. I'm sure you won't go all Spursy at the chance

Heart says we do them easily for once. Head says they up their game and frustrate us in a draw.

There is too much expectation at a big Tottenham win.

arsenal still have good players. You could quite conceivably see them getting an early goal as aubamayang ends his drought, as he is a quality instinctive striker, and then the defensive measures arteta employs will actually prove beneficial.

bit worried about this one. the fact that they are so shiiiiiite is causing me concern. they have nothing to lose and i suspect we will need to play very well to beat them. win to stay top.. plenty of incentive even if it wasn't an NLD... but with them having a home Europa tie having qualified, and us having an important away tie where we haven't qualified might be a leveler.

arsenal's win on fanbase and trophy haul.

spurs win on any other sensible metric you want to judge by (e.g. current team, revenue, future potential, stadium, rate of growth, etc)


overall you have to say arsenal are bigger. their fans must out number ours 10 to 1, which just makes it funnier that they are so shiiiit and you are never far away from a goooner in meltdown,
