I thought I would Pen some thoughts before the Spurs game having watched pretty much everything available this year due to having the time and a burst of enthusiasm for the league.
Despite the euphoria and new one media fans I just think this is going to be another tough season and it will actually be tough to sustain last year's league position. Hopefully this growing feel of doubt will be enough to see us trounce Spurs but I doubt it.
There is no doubt that we have exciting wingers and the back 6 look solid but I just think the level of the competition has risen significantly and there are a lot of good players/teams around now. I also think with a couple of injuries to keep players we could easily look ordinary. Defence and midfield are risks in terms of numbers at the back and quality in the middle. I would like to articulate this more clearly but just wanted post the thought now rather than after today's result. The season pivots on injuries and recovery more than ever. If Chamakh stays fit I would be optimistic but I doubt that. If Cabaye and or McArthur get long term injury I think we are vulnerable. Even more so if Delaney or Dann get a bad knock we are very short. Right off to see the lineup for today
