Games coming thick and fast now. To be fair the performance against villa was top class IMO so the only reason to change things around would be to rest some legs. And gallas' should be first with caulker getting a game.

Leinstersqspur

Should be a tough game with Sunderand finding a bit of form lately, we'll need to be clinical unlike Man City the other day..

Sandro could be due a rest with Parker looking sharp v Villa..

Your wish has been granted!

Verthongen on the bench though.

@SpursOfficial: Our starting team today: Lloris, Walker, Caulker, Dawson, Naughton, Lennon, Dembele, Sandro, Bale, Adebayor & Defoe

And our subs today: Friedel, Vertoghen, Huddestone, Livermore, Parker, Dempsey & Sigurdsson #COYS

Leinstersqspur

Caulker & Dawson, this will be a test!

MrKingsley

Gutsy move to change both CBs but in AVB we Trust!!!!

Im happy with the team though. Vertz has barely had a breather all season and we should still be able to keep this attack out with daws and caulker.

Im predicting a nervy 2-1 for the yiddos. ade and bale. Might just put a few squid on that actually

Emoran

Jan was due a break, still a bit disappointed but lets be honest I don't remember the last game he didn't play in!

3 points - I'd love an easy win but that definitely won't happen

irishmover

Little worried that the backline changed so much but then again people were complaining of not enough rotation under redknapp.

It's a long season. Verts played a lot of football already this season so maybe due a break.

Leinstersqspur

Dawson making me nervous already!

SuprSi

How is Walker getting beaten so often? Yer man he's against isn't even quick - very poor defensively from him. Can't believe that Ade has only scored one goal this season! That's a shocking return.

SuprSi

Good spell of pressure this - be nice to get a goal from it.

SuprSi

Oh man, hit the bar from no more than 2 - 3 yards

irishmover

Tap it not lash it ade!....

Leinstersqspur

Need to make this pressure count, unlucky for Ade there, a goal would lift his confidence... COYS

Lennon looking very dangerous today!

irishmover

Well done Walker.

SuprSi

Jammy bastards, all because of Walker really - stupid from him, even though it was never a free kick. Lloris incredibly unlucky after an unbelievable save, the ball couldn't have fallen any kinder for O'Shea.

Kiith

What the hell was Walker at there? Idiot. Terrible defense from the free as well. Great save by Lloris, but than Ade stands still and loses his man. Awful stuff.

irishmover

Got a feeling that the more this game progresses the more pissed off I'll be listening to Niall Quinn.

Yeah, I can't stand him as a commentator, he talks some amount of sh1te. Plus, because of his past he's extremely biased.

It's just the same with David Pleat.

SuprSi

FFS Defoe, get up

KingdomYid

No coincidence that two of our worst performers this season are the reason we are behind, Ade and Walker. It is so very frustrating.

SuprSi

Yeah, Ade has been rubbish. I didn't see the Villa game but I heard he was crap then as well. 1 goal this season simply isn't good enough either.

tippspur

Not for the first time going behind when we're well on top,still can't believe Adebeyar missed that easy chance.

Emoran

This hangover just got a whole lot worse... Ade's hair is about as good as his form lately!

He's absolutely shocking

Leinstersqspur

No need for panic, I'd like to see Siggy dropped in for Adebayor, in AVB we trust!

COYS!

SuprSi

The frustrating thing is that we played very well for the last 30 minutes of that half, completely dominating. Had Ade been even the slightest bit clinical, we'd more than likely be praising an excellent away performance.

Hopefully, if the lads can maintain this level of performance, we'll get at least a goal.

tippspur

Sunderland will just sit back now and boot it anywhere,waste as much time as they can.Not going to be easy to score against them.

SuprSi

Woohoo!! Own goal. That makes up for their luck in the first goal.

SuprSi

C'mon now, back to all square, let's push on and win this now.

Jammy as hell, but no less than we deserve.
