Less than  90 to go, this morning has dragged on so badly, I woke at 8.30 and the match pinged into my head instantly.

Our 4/4 wins so far means this game is essentially a free hit, I expect us to hit them hard and fast right out of the blocks, Robbo, Keita and Mané to gut them down their right flank with all three getting a goal or assist in the first 45.

Even a draw would be fine here, although I'm hoping for a comfortable win to make it 5/5 and send a message to the rest of the league.

It's a constant source of wonder the effort that goes into putting these OPs for, thank you for helping to fill the void that the international break brings.

In answer to some of the points raised - of course the rivaly is nothing short of fiction, I think some confuse personal or office/work rivalries for the real thing.  After this fixture last year I was not looking forward to going into work to face my Spurs colleague, and finishing below them in the league has admittedly been irksome but not the stuff that rivalries are built of.

When you consider the 5 we put past them in 13/14 that lead to the sacking of Villas-Boas and saw them land  Tim 'Tactics' Sherwood who we put 4 past, its hardly suprising if they think there is a rivally but it is surely a one-sided effort - its not like they are short of other London clubs to get fired up about.

For the midfield I'm in the Keita, Gini, Milner camp with Henderson later and Shaqiri to rest one of the front three.  Fancy Fabinho to debut against PSG, be amazed if he features here.

Lamela and Moura worry me, Moura because he is good and Lamela because he a a whiny diving twat.  I haven't seen much of Vorm since his Swansea days but he will of course be chanelling his inner Jennings today.

Still, I think we can do this, 1-2 sounds about right and 5 on the trot would be massive.

Also Alli is a huge miss for their pressing game and ability to disrupt us

Yes I agree. I'm sure we're quite aware of their lack of preseason. Klopp actually pointed that out a few weeks ago- in defense of Pochettino.
I'm not sure about the number of goals, but if we can take advantage early and head into the break with a 2-goal lead, then we'll have them on the racks.

Our defense would be able to ride it out in the 2nd- IF so.

Spurs will be up for this.

They’ll want to prove they can cope without the likes of Alli.

Keep Lucas and Eriksen quiet though, cut off the supply to Kane and we should win this.

Drop dier in to defence and erikson in to midfield and it looks better though.  Wouldn't be surprised if they switched mid game.
