Fixture Focus–Spurs (EPL, 15 August 2015)

 

Tottenham Hotspur vs Stoke City 
 
After a tough opening fixture at Old Trafford where we were unfortunate to not come away with a point due to an own goal, Spurs will face a tricky Stoke side for our home opener.
 
The Potters play tough football and they have made some improvements in the off-season. Their latest signing, Shaqiri could get a start as well as Mark Hughes will want to get a result after losing 1-0 to Liverpool last weekend.

Spurs should have Lloris back in goal but it still worries me that we haven’t signed a strike partner for Kane and getting a solid defensive midfielder to break up attacks in the middle of the park. Rose should retake his left back spot with Ryan Mason replacing Dier in midfield. We should be fielding a stronger side than what Poch had to fashion up last week.

I’m hoping a new season would mean new beginnings and a home win will get us on the the right track to success this season.

COYS!
