So Ali and Kane will be playing for spurs today after a long world cup campaign. So why the hell are we doing resting Izquierdo after a short campaign.
And as a result probably have march playing.

Can Yves Bissouma play on the left wing?

No idea but having watched his keepie uppies I wouldn’t be surprised if he can also walk on water, so why not?

Afraid I’m with you, March frustrates the hell out of me, better defender than winger most of the time.

Yep, 0-0 between you and stains would do me too. :thumbsup:

Yes, being in the Premier League is weird unless you support a top club. From the very first game, you assume you will be in a relegation battle.

It would be terrible if Huddersfield get any points off Chelsea or Newcastle don't lose to Spurs. I see Huddersfield and Newcastle as potential relegation rivals. I'd be annoyed if West Ham get anything at Anfield but I think the Hammers will be comfortably safe this season.

Could do with Bournemouth/Cardiff and Fulham/Palace being draws.

Apparently west ham are Liverpool's bogey team. So I'm not getting my hopes up!.

Yep, it's weird, you feel you have a stake in almost every game !!

Last season I followed every game with an eye to what outcome would be best for us. This season will be no different. Given that there are a maximum of 3 points available per game, a draw, which provides only 2 points, is always best when teams below us (especially) or near us play one another. That until the very end when a defeat for a team below us is always the best option. It pains me to wish for a ManUre win most times they play but I do if it makes sense.

Let the games begin!

Just bought one of the last tickets in the home section just after midday, so looking forward to my first trip to this fixture since October 2014. A better experience than shopping in Watford anyway...

Would 100% take a point.

I’m guessing this will be how we line up

Ryan
Bruno
Dunk
Duffy
Bernardo
Knockaert
Stephens
Propper
March
Gross
Murray

Complete lack of pace.

Bench;

Button, balogun, bong, Bissouma, Alireza, hemed, locadia
