This will definatly test our ability. Playing the Dutch league leaders at White Hart Lane will probably be our toughest challenge so far this season. We need to get a win tonight to give us a fantastic chance of getting through to the quarter final. We definatly can't afford to concede tonight, so with King and Woodgate back to strengthen up the back 4 that will give us more hope. Chimbonda will probably continue at left back, with Tainio filling in at right back. The midfield picks itself really; Lennon, Jenas, Zokora, Malbranque. I will be surprised to see a strike partnership other than Keane and Berbatov. Robinson in goal.
We need to concentrate on getting the early goal, just how we did against Prague last time out at the Lane, but we need to push on afterwards. Keep tight at the back, and get Lennon on the ball to terrorise their left back. Zokora should sit in front of the centre backs to allow Jenas to make the runs that have been paying dividends lately.
If we have our heads screwed on tonight, I predict a 2-0 victory to take into the 2nd leg.
COYS.

Really looking forward to seeing how gilberto fares on his debut.

Am going to choose to give this a watch over Everton and Fiorentina, and i hope therefore for a good game.

I can see a 2-1 Spurs win.

Come on Tottenham. Its also here on tv. I think Tottenham is better. but i think psv is still gonna win.They always have luck.
Come on Tottenham break the legs of gomes. That is good for ajax (sunday psv-ajax )

ther we go

Gilberto gets caught stupidly in possession and Farfan cooly slots home.

1-0 PSV.

i see ther is a chance for Tottenham to score.. gomes is in a bad form.

Keep it up please, this is doing my prediction (1-2) some good.

haha i also said 1-2 to psv

Ye because we are playing awful.

On first glance Gilberto looks exactly like what we already have, fullbacks good going forward who arent good defenders.

O'Hara on for Gilberto at half time.

I think you guys are playing great...only thing is...psv always have luck.
Normaly gomes is also way better..

If we are playing great i'd love to of seen your reaction to when we play our best

haha ok when are the Tottenham players gonna start to shuffle them down.Break gomes is legs!!!!

Jenas goes down after turning on his ankle, should be coming off for Huddlestone. Jenas comes off on a stretcher for Big Tom. Doesnt look good.

Good sportsman like behavior from there goalie screaming at his players to put the ball out of play.

This is absoloute crap.

Adel Taarabt comes on for Ledley King.

A winger coming on for a Centre back you'd think the tie would be ending tonight.

yup.

And sort your avatar out becks, i told matt off for having the same one

Well Ramos has to go for it cos I think we might struggle in Eindehoven.

I can't even see it! What is it?

Basically its too big so its just a little red cross. To show its too big or something.

Freekick taken by o Hara

and

Spoons it over.

Boo. Ill change it den.

Sigh..O'hara blasts one over the bar. Can't see us getting a result tonight, or next week

They are jammy feckers, but they really pounce when a mistake is made.

Ramos will learn from this for the next tie.

Christ that was close by O'Hara.

Maybe it could be a good thing

Because if we in uefa cup this season anything less that a trophy next season and we will be dissapointed.

Good move great work for Taarabt, lovely floated ball to Ohara blasts it across goal and Berbs couldnt get anything on it.

Goal for PSV?. NO Ruled out rightly for Offside.

How did Gomes save that!
