    Right, Here goes....

    I reckon we will beat these by 2-1.
    Cant see us keeping a clean sheet at all nowadays.

    My preferred 11 would be..........

    Hugo

    Naughton - Fazio - Kaboul - Rose

    Vertonghen- Mason

    Lamela - Soldado - Townsend.

    Kane.

    Need Fazio to smack a few of these thugs.

    Vertonghen in midfield? :confused:

    Stick Dembele in there, and go two up front i say.

    Is Fazio available again. Might stick a few quid on him getting a sent off. He's a shoe in for at least a yellow.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,661 ✭✭✭mickman


    keep fazio away from the team , he was shockingly bad last night.

    thought townsend did well, maybe give him a go on the left


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,910 ✭✭✭Sugarlumps


    Townsend deserves a start, think he only shot wildly once last night. Charlie Adam usually leaves a mark. I expect a feisty affair.

    We've the slowest cb's in premiership history, any ball over the top and panic sets in. Crouch/Walters up front, not blessed with pace, but they'll niggle away for the 90 minutes. Moses is fairly pacey, he'll have a field day.

    Hugo heroics, might salvage a draw.

    Jan has played defensive midfield before... so i believe..
    Capoue, Dembele, Paulinho, Stambouli are our holding options so to speak..
    The 3 attacking midfileders and striker options are ..
    Lamela, Townsend,Eriksen,Lennon, Chadli, ooooh Chadli :eek:,Kane,Soldado,Ade.

    What are the chances of Kane starting tomorrow? Wanna sign him for FF but he seems to never start league games?

    No chance, we're playing on Sunday.

    Adebayor didn't travel to Greece and was rested so based on previous behaviour where Poch did the same thing in other away games in the EPL -Ade is nailed in to start.

    So why in God's name did we buy this player. Poch plays a high line. baldini oversees the scouts and player purchase ... what was the ****ing point?

    Adebeyor is doubtful for the game according to reports.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,010 ✭✭✭slegs


    Kane will start for sure question will be whether it's as striker or no 10 behind Soldado


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,661 ✭✭✭mickman


    Papers have it that the players don't want adebayour to start anymore

    There apparently was a revolt when adebayour brought some newcastle players into the spurs dressing room just minutes after the game ended

    If he did that then the guy is more brain dead than I thought and has zero interest in spurs

    True or not, he has always had zero interest in our club

    Kane starts!


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,910 ✭✭✭Sugarlumps


    #THFC team: Lloris, Naughton, Fazio, Kaboul (c), Rose; Capoue, Mason; Chadli, Eriksen, Townsend; Kane


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,467 ✭✭✭mushykeogh


    Eriksen playing off Kane?


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,910 ✭✭✭Sugarlumps


    Glad Townsend got the start.

    Yeah, he deserved it, played like a proper winger which gives us the width we need.
    Not sure on Kane as lone striker, would prefer see him play behind Soldado

    Fazio started under assumption crouch would play and he's not... Fazio could struggle

    He came out recently and said he wasn't playing well enough to start in the league. He has the beating of a player and can cross the ball, just needs to keep it simple.

    Eriksen has been very poor of late, needs to support Kane.


  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 7,401 Mod ✭✭✭✭pleasant Co.


    Same as some others I'd have liked to have seen kane behind soldado

    From paddy power:

    "Spurs have dropped Adebayor following a late fitness test showed he's a lazy bastard"

    I got a laugh out of it

    Moses and Diouf both pacey, even if moses hasnt been playing great so far this season.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,467 ✭✭✭mushykeogh


    Christ.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,057 ✭✭✭tippspur


    Some shyte start.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,661 ✭✭✭mickman


    Bojan runs from inside his own half uncontested to score


  • Registered Users Posts: 609 ✭✭✭Left Back on the Bench


    No creativity, no ideas, no pace, no passion, no fight, no will to win.

    Playing hoofball again already because no one wants the ball. Meat and drink to Stoke.

    I'm finding it hard to watch them these days. Past blaming manager after manager, most of these players are gutless

    Nevermind guts. This bunch of players are simply not good enough.
