Tottenham Hotspur vs. Newcastle United: 04/01/25 @ 12:30 (TNT Sports)


Recommended Posts

Looking at this objectively, we're playing a side with two wins in nine. They're playing a third choice keeper, have one fit CB, no fit RB, their best CM is suspended and their main playmaker has been ill all week.

 

Meanwhile we've won five in a row, conceding one. The odds are vindicated.

 

Subjectively, I'm a Newcastle United fan and I'm hyper aware of how good they are going forward. I've seen us not capitalise on these situations many times over the years, I'm taking nothing for granted.

I feel uncharacteristically optimistic about today’s game. I can’t see how an illness-affected back line can deal with the energy and quality of our midfield and forward line. Also our midfield has been really good at protecting the back four, so as long as we win that midfield battle I think we will have too much for them.

Austin; Porro, Dragusin, Gray, Spence; Bissouma, Sarr; Kulusevski, Johnson, Son; Solanke. 
 

Is what I expect. More than decent enough on paper. Just hope a few of them still have dicky tummy’s.

Oddly it’s a bigger game for Newcastle than Spurs, they’ve got their illness and injuries to hide behind, losing can be explained away.

 

Whereas to get 4th or 5th means winning games like this and making sure Man Utd wasn’t a one off
