Smash and Grab

Are we going to have another 9-1 on our hands, or can you see us making a right old dogs dinner of this one?

Portsmouth, without their most influential player, O'Hara, could fold against tomorrow, or they could have a real go at it, especially if we come across slightly dazed after our midweek F.A. Cup Quarter-Final win exploits.

With Charlie out, Hutton on loan to Sunderland and Kyle Naughton on loan to Boro, that leaves the kid, Kyle Walker, our only recognised right-back. I say kid, because he was only 4 when Klinsmann and Sheringham took Liverpool apart up at Anfield in the F.A. Cup Quarter-Final. I remember it like yesterday! Showing my age...

Or, we could shift Bentley in the full-back position and watch him bomb on up the wing and interchange with Kranjcar? Against Belhadj, I'd rather we had a proper full-back.

Either way, I think our lads are professional enough to get the 3 points against Portsmouth.

Prediction: Tottenham 5-0 Portsmouth
