Savour it while you can. Hull away will also be 3pm, but the next ones are Chelsea and **** in March, which of course will be moved at some point.

Yes, tell me about it.
Chelsea is the same date as the FA Cup 6th round. With the draws they get, that will get postponed to a midweek game.
Arsnal at home, no chance is that staying Sat 3pm.
Soton at home, after the game at St Marys, SKy or BT will pick it for televising I'm sure, and
Liverpool away, cant remember the last time a league game of ours at Anfield wasnt televised.
I would say our next 3pm ko on a Saturday at WHL after this weekend will be Sunderland

That would be ideal. Confidence boosting clean sheet, no hanging on for the final whistle and a plus GD

Might sound daft, but I'd rather City won, I just cant see us catching them in the long haul, and I'd prefer City winning the title than Arsnal, so I'd rather see them take points off one of our rivals for a Euro spot.
Would love to see Liverpool drop points at Stoke, but cant see it happening. Its a shame EVerton have Norwich at home, because that will be a landslide home win

I think Jordinho hopes City win too, it's more the fact that it's Saudi Sportswashing Machine they are playing so if City win, Saudi Sportswashing Machine fall further behind if we can pick up the 3 points here
I think we'd all prefer City to win the title.

Hear hear. We ain't catching Chelsea or Emirates Marketing Project so I want both of them to keep winning until they are ahead of Scum.

Excellent post mate! Hopefully we'll continue our good league form and get the win...
Early still to pick a team, but I think Bentaleb deserves another start. If fit I would love to see Lamela get a start too, his creativity could be really important against that well organized Palace side Tony Pulis is likely to put out.

A game like this is an absolute must-win, if we're to finish higher than 6th.
I fear a 1-1 draw though

I actually don't think many genuine spurs fan that sees any PL game as a walkover this season. Really want us to play Lamela, but Lennon doesn't deserve to be dropped.
Eriksen and Lennon seem to be a very good fit as left and right sided players.
Townsend and Lamela worked very well in our last European game.
We have options, but the key is we have to be defensively sound. Chamakh, Puncheon have both shown good form of late. Jedinak played very well in the season opener too.
Would love Verts, Kaboul and Sandro back.

I thought that Lamela was out injured and Vertonghen is still only back to doing some light running? No sign of either in the recent training photos anyway.
Probably mate, I have no idea myself. Let's see whose fit, like the rest of you I'd keep the team pretty close to the one that started at United. Capoue for Bentaleb for me

The more I think about the pace of Palace's forward line and Pulis' defence organisation skills - plus the fact that I have NEVER known a Spurs team to do the league double over Palace, then this match starts to look a little grim to me....

know what you mean... as jordy says we may have the chance to make up some ground on our rivals this coming weekend.
Anything other than three points would be a disaster.....stating the obvious here.
I think we can do it....but if we give away silly set pieces and concede the first goal then I really fear for us.......on the flip side if we can get the first quite early and actually hold a lead for five mins then we should be ok......Really interested to see how we set up for this...especially if Timmy has more options available...
Soldado really needs to get us some goals...and soon otherwise if he keeps firing blanks I dont think we will make top 4.

352 for me. I remember a couple of years back when we started 442 against Stoke and they were 2-0 up at half time. Redknapp switched it up and if it wasn't for a shcoking offside decision we would've won.

We did once but we were up against a twelfth man named Foy.

I actually think that this kind of set up...is perfect against a Pulis side.......ah if only ol Glen was in charge for this one.
The reason I think the 3-5-2 is perfect against palace is that his full backs will not be too adventurous which means we shouldnt get too overloaded on the flanks..... Also three Cb's against two physical strikers is probably the way to go....with Capoue acting as sweeper and initiating our attacks with decent passing from the back. The three cb's would also help with set pieces.
Obviously the set-up would then give us the extra man in midfield while maintaining the two strikers.
I would really love us to try that set up on Saturday but I know thats highly unlikely... the only issue with the above formation is that Dembele is not a disciplined DM mind you I dont think Pulis goes for attacking midfielders.......he prefers his cm's to join in as quick as possible.
Maybe 3-5-2 is the way to go for this one......... Eriksen & Lamela behind Ade & Solly would be a fascinating watch.
