Another bus at WembleySpurs will certainly face yet another bus at Wembley. Harry Kane blanked against Burnley, Swansea, Bournemouth & Palace at home this season already. What do all those teams have in common? They tightened up their defences, sat back and played on counter-attacks. This tactic has proven to be effective this season against Spurs at Wembley, so what makes us think this time will be different?New manager effectToni Pulis is sacked now and WBA players trained under Gary Megson this week. We are all aware of the "new manager effect" in football. Players play badly, the mood in the club is bad, fans are unhappy, boards sacks a manager and players start performing again. They usually try to prove their worth to the new manager and make the fans happy again. Some may think that this may work against WBA, because players will try to do fancy skills and play attacking football, but bear in mind that Gary Megson is basically mini Pulis. They will definitely park a bus and defend for their lives.Will Kane play 90 minutes?He was injured not a long ago and played against Dortumind in the mid-week. If Spurs do score and it isn't through Kane, what makes us think he won't be subbed off in 65th minute? We know how those stories usually end.Just food for thought.
