Today at 2:45 p.m. ET, Tottenham and Manchester City go head-to-head in Barclays Premiere League action live from White Hart Lane in England. The game can be live streamed here.
Tottenham manager Tim Sherwood didn't want to use his team's 6-0 loss to Manchester City in November as a way to motivate his team because he didn't want to scare them ahead of hs match up with championship hopefuls Manchester City.
"You might scare them, when you want to motivate them," Sherwood on Tuesdayvia ESPN. "I just think they need to use that for themselves. Games boil down to individual errors, decision making, and if we win enough of our personal battles out there tomorrow we'll make a good account of ourselves. Anyone who finishes above Manchester City will win the league."
Sherwood has strong belief in striker Emmanuel Adebayor, and believes that he will be a key piece of the club going forward.
"He's been great ever since I've come into this job, Sherwood said per ESPN. "I've given him a platform to play and he's not let me down. It looks like he's enjoying his football and he surely will be up for this game on Wednesday. There's no small and big games for Ade at the moment, he seems like he's motivated just as much for every game he plays."
Andros Townsend and Erik Lamela are sidelined against Manchester City, while Jan Vertonghen, Younes Kaboul and Sandro returned to training but may not be able to play.
Manchester City, meanwhile, is hoping to return Sergio Aguero and Alvaro Negredo to this game.
Aguero is coming off of a hat trick but had to play the whole 90 minutes--something manager Manuel Pellegrini was looking to avoid.
"There are no problems, he played without problems in the 90 minutes. He is okay," Pellegrini told ESPN. "He is in the squad list and doesn't have any problem to play. Negredo is okay, he is in the squad list, no problem."
Tottenham and Manchester City go head-to-head this afternoon in England.
