10 days to go before Christmas, but there will not be much of the festive spirit around White Hart Lane this Sunday, as Spurs seek revenge for a bit of a pasting last month. Gus Poyet has declared his excitement for this game, and let's hope he can repeat his goalscoring feat of last year, but this time for a winner! Hopefully Steffen Freund will be there to pester the midfield. Despite the absence of Vieira, our boys need more pace and determination to halt the onslaught that may come. I hope and pray for a 2-1 - to us!
