Fixture Focus – Spurs (17 December 2009)

Tottenham Hotspur vs Manchester City manC

I’m looking forward and not back at the past weekend’s painful memory. 

A resurgent Manchester City this year with the spending power of wealthy owners have brought a team that has the lowest loss record in the league this season.  After a string of 8 draws, Sparky must be anxious to get going again and they will be bringing everything they got to White Hart Lane.  The only confirmed injury is to Shaun Wright-Phillips while Bellamy is out due to suspension.  De Jong and Adebayor are fit to face the Lilywhites.

For Spurs, the team must focus on getting 3 points at home.  Reports indicate that Modric will be on the bench, together with Bentley and Pavlyuchenko.  I hope that ‘arry starts Crouch and Defoe up front.  Keano seems to have lost a step this season.

I think the team should not stress themselves up with thoughts of Top 4 and Champions League qualification.  Just forget all that, concentrate on each game and the rest will take care of itself.

COYS!
