Tottenham Hotspur Starting XI Prediction (North London Derby)

By

To anyone who isn't a Tottenham Hotspur supporter, what happened on Saturday was nothing short of hilarious.

Being goalless and level with a League Two club, after 90 mins, is indeed very funny (which again, provided of course you're not a Tottenham fan). No matter how you … [Read more...] about Tottenham Hotspur Starting XI Prediction (North London Derby)
