After losing to Hull we need to blow away the Canaries and the Bubble blowers at home.

Nothing more, nothing less.

It's going to be interesting against Tottenham

our away form has been awful, let's hope Tottenham's awful scoring record will carry on against us.

a draw against spuds could see us take 10 points from these 5 games, not perfect but not bad

these upcoming games against spurs, city and chelsea are absolutely huge, everton are already above us and although we have a game in hand they count for nothing unless you win them.
after playing united and arsenal back to back everton now have a run of 5 or 6 very winnable games until their next big test away at our place at the end of january, if we lose our 3 tough away games (which is a real possibility given our recent away form) and everton beat the likes of swansea, stoke, sunderland and norwich we could find ourselves on the wrong end of a sizable gap going into the anfield derby on the 28th of january.

i hope your right mate, but considering we have only won 2 away games all season and the last one of those was back in late september, nearly 3 months ago, against a manager-less sunderland side it`s hard not to feel at least a bit apprehensive about our chances tomorrow.
our awful record at white hart lane doesnt help either.
hendo being fit is a positive though, i hope we try to play a high intensity pressing game and dont sit back and invite pressure onto ourselves, i dont want to see luis isolated up the pitch on his own.

Dya know what...

Sometimes its f*cking great to be wrong!

sometimes it's great to be right too 

If beat Cardiff at home and Arsenal drop points to Chelsea away (both highly likely outcomes) - we will have taken 12 points out of 15 available and be top of the league going into Xmas.

Like to see the same starting 11, from yesterday , for the next 3 games ........

Alberto in for Lucas against Cardiff for me, see what he can do.

Was thinking the same. The kid deserves a chance and Cardiff at home will be the perfect game for it.

Sometimes the best thing about being wrong (from a superstitious point of view) is to avoid jinxing the moment from happening. Time I have heard friends of their optimism beating other teams (jinxing the moment) and we end up drawing to Newcastle, Everton, and then losing to Hull. He's learnt his lesson. Alternatively its great just to be silent.

I never understand how some can be superstitious. I mean it's rife amongst players as well.

Why would anyone want to change the side that just delivered one of the best performances seen by the club for years??

Same eleven, make sure we get three points and then evaluate for the next game then.
