Spurs news: Harry Winks believes new stadium can affect Manchester City ahead of Champions League tie

Tottenham midfielder Harry Winks believes the atmosphere at the new stadium can be problematic for Manchester City.

The pair of English clubs meet in the quarterfinals of the Champions League, and the first leg is at our new stadium.

Winks made a return to the team in the 2-0 win over Crystal Palace, the first game at our new home, and claimed that the stadium felt like home due to the support from the fans. He was quoted by the Telegraph as saying,

“The atmosphere out there was special, it was fantastic the way the boys played, the way the crowd helped us settle in and made it feel like it was home straight away.”

The midfielder added that the team was looking forward to the huge clash against City, and was certain the supporters would create a great atmosphere too.

Daunting” for the visitors

Winks added that the stadium is difficult for opponents to adjust to and the fans play their part as well:

“From what I gathered out there tonight it can be quite daunting for the opposition, and that is all credit to the fans and the sound they make in the stadium. It is a place we can settle in to quickly and call home, and make it difficult for opposition to come to.”

The Spurs midfielder was also reminded of Liverpool’s 3-0 win over Manchester City in the Champions League last season where the fans at Anfield made it a raucous atmosphere.

The Englishman believed that the team has to do its job on the pitch. The fans would also play a huge role in creating an atmosphere that helps the team.

Winks concluded by suggesting that should the team press as they normally do, City would be in for a rough ride.
