Burnley are doing okay, tbf… and most of their major signings started on the bench.

Spurs have Prem-quality cutting edge, though… which is what we might struggle with.

There’s no might about it, although I’m hoping Willy rises to the challenge

I have high hopes for Willy this season. Easy to forget what an impact he had in the Prem (in a shit team) when he first arrived. And he's still only 21. It's time for him to go up a level.

I do think Willy is better suited to Prem than Championship

Yeah. We'll be doing a lot more defending, against higher lines. Watching that Liverpool/Bournemouth game was interesting. *Much* deadlier attacking players, on both sides, obvs. But so much space for quick, direct players to run into.

They also contrived to get no shot away on a 2 vs 0 break when it was still 1-0. Spurs defence doesn't exactly look un breachable, but none of Burnley's attempts have really threatened.

It does rather have Spurs spursing it up written all over it right now doesn't it, although that Bergvall looks decent
