So do we play it cagey and try and hit them on a break, or do we let them have it all guns blazing from the off?
I'd definitely play Romm,Holland, Baby Bent. I'd keep JT on the bench. Have to say I'd be tempted to put Hughes in the middle, Song can create but seems prone to getting caught in possession. Ambrose wide. And I'd stick Lisbie in. What the hell. Think he is more likely to do something than Marcus.JFH on the bench.
I'd keep it tight, and try to release Romm to counter attack with Bent and Lizzer.
If we lose this one we're down, and whilst it's not the end of the world by any means, it would be nice to survive if only to annoy the whammers et al who were giving us the signs and bare arses all the way back down the motorway on Sat. :)

At the weekend, offer Rooney, Ronaldo, Terry, Drogba and Gerrard £1m each to make a guest appearance for us.
But ok we'll have those on the bench but I still say Lisbie starts :)
Nah, that'd never work.
Sidwell and Lita from Reading, Arteta from Everton and Stelios from Bolton would be cheaper and better motivated, as if Spurs lose it improves their chances of qualifying for Europe.
No just invite the Spurs team to a buffet dinner at the Tower Thistle Hotel....:-)
all he needs to do is take his Spurs Spice Boy mates (Lennon, Gardner, Murphy (if there are no 3-rd rate premieres going on this weekend), Robbo, Keano etc etc on a huge bender over the weekend around the usual tacky footballers niteries & get all of them almightily bladdered.................then we roll 'em over on Monday.
Go on Marcus my son, it's your big chance
Although I obviously want Spurs to win this game to keep our push for Europe on, I wouldnt be too disheartened if we lost and had to go via the Inter-two-bob Cup if it condemned the Hammers to their rightful place - The Championship.
Teams that we find more difficult to beat at home (I know we find it difficult to beat any team) are the ones who come for a draw - Wigan, Sheff U, and even Reading to a certain extent.
Teams like West Ham although they were very short on confidence when they played us, played a more open game and so we were able to score 4 on the break. With ay luck, Spurs will leave the same gaps at the back.
Lets 'ave em.
Failing that I am with curb_it, hic!
ATTACK, ATTACK, ATTACK.
Play 4-4-2 and punt the ball forward.
