ADP 0 Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 (edited) Merson and Lawro predictions respectively: Newcastle v Tottenham PAUL PREDICTS: 1-0 This is a tough start for both teams. There's a lot of expectation at Newcastle after they did so great last year and the fans will turn up expecting to beat Tottenham. It's a very tricky one for Andre Villas-Boas and I think Papiss Cisse and Demba Ba will be a right handful. Spurs may play Jermain Defoe up front on his own - and he's not a target man - so they may find the ball coming back very quickly. Newcastle have made one or two interesting acquisitions like Vurnon Anita from Ajax, and I see this game as a battle between teams who will probably finish fifth and sixth. Tottenham are more likely to challenge for the top four than Newcastle, but ultimately I don't think they will get there. Under Andre Villas-Boas, Spurs are very much a team still under construction - they are waiting for Luka Modric to leave so they can bring a couple more players in. Villas-Boas was a bit unlucky at Chelsea. What he was doing was a project, as he kept telling us, but the guy in charge basically abandoned it prematurely because they were losing games. Experience is usually something you get when you learn from things not going right, so Villas Boas will have learned a lot from his time at Stamford Bridge and, ultimately, I think he will be a success at Spurs.

The Fish 8994 Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 Spurs fans seem to think they're without Dawson and Huddlestone. Trying to work out their starting line up Friedel Walker Vertonghen Kaboul Assou Ekotto Sandro Livermore Lennon Van Der Vaart Bale Defoe Maybe?
