    All week Pep has been overdriving on the reverse psychology stuff. I do think that is all it is in the hope that he might get a response. It might work, it might not. I think it's down to Spurs, if we turn up with our A game we can get something. If we go for the kill early, get that goal, then I think they could get schooled. As far as individuals go, they certainly have enough good ones to turn up and prove a point today.

    If they lose today, it will be interesting to see how much, if any panicking happens from Pep in the TW.

    Yep. I expect 'em to come flying out of the blocks. They took a spanking last weekend and if they've got any pride they'll want to make up for it this week. Just hope we're ready for it.

    They carry a formidable threat going forward. Defence is creaky, but they're still a very good side.

    1-1 would do nicely.

    To be fair to him, he has an awful squad given all the money they've spent.

    Would Bravo, Zabaleta/Sagna Otamendi, Kolarov, Clichy, Toure, Fernando get into any other top 6 team? No chance and that's their whole defence and midfield spine!

    Fernandinho is their only decent CM with Gundogan out injured. Front line is very good with aguero de Bruyne silva Sterling nolito.

    Hes definitely found it harder harder here as lower teams put up much more of a fight especially at home than in Spain and Germany but he doesn't have the players that can play his way. None of that back 4 are brilliant on the ball to start quick attacks passing forward.

    Give him a im a window or two to bring in players that suit his style or younger players he can mould and city will be fighting for title

    Hoping for a City win, think it'll be a draw though.

    Yup, he has spent £150m on a load of ol' ****e.

    Stones is young, Sane is meh, Gundogan and Nolito aren't bad, Bravo is laughably **** and the other couple he bought, I dont think have even played, I cant even remember their names, Rulli something.

    Don't you think its understandable that he may be a bit pissed off as opposed to 'rattled' in general, plus the high intensity game and to top it off a bunch of snides with a mic asking him loaded questions? I think he dealt with his grievance in a way the media deserves at times.


    So go on then, how would Bo react?
