This is a must win - i reckon we should have enough as long as the fatigue isnt a factor.

3-1 to us

Bodie Doyle

We have a nice set of fixtures coming up. A win tomorrow and then take points off Swansea, Burnley & Leicester and that sets us up nicely for New Year.
Poch seems to know his first choice 11 now but may have to change tomorrow due to tiredness. I can see Dembele & either Stambouli or Capoue ( injury permitting) starting tomorrow as Mason looked a bit knackered on Wednesday and Benteleb may need a rest also.
3 points a must v Palace to keep up with the chasing pack.

Bentaleb has played very little , should b ok

Dembele has been awful this season so im not sure we will see him.

maybe stambouli, he was good in the last europa league match .

slegs

Going to this with my young lad. Hope its a 5-0!

tippspur

Hopefully we'll see more improvement and a good win,a clean sheet would be nice and not going one down for a change.

Witch doctor got to him

Sugarlumps

Bolasie & Puncheon are decent players. Warnock will have them set up well. It's a derby, I don't expect it to be a walk in the park.

TEAM: Lloris. Dier, Fazio, Vertonghen, Davies. Lamela, Bentaleb, Mason, Eriksen. Kane, Soldado.

tippspur

That's a young team we've out today,hope they do the biz.

tom1ie

It's a team that should be full of youthful attacking energy and intent. If we start strong and pressure them up the top of the pitch I think we can win this one by 2 or 3 however if the likes of ericksen and lamella just saunter around the pitch palace could nick it by the odd goal

2nd Row Donkey

Very lightweight across the middle.

Lennon dropped/rotated but no room for Chadli.

MonkieSocks

Fazio, Vertonghen....soft center back pairing.

I would have Vlad as my first CB, more pace

Hope he puts Lamela out on the left, to put in some good crosses in.

Rest of the team looks good.


:pac: COYS

Kiith

Nice kick in the sack from Lamella there :P

MonkieSocks

Hard luck Sol

Kiith

Terrible from us so far. So slow in everything we're doing.

MonkieSocks

Jedinak bossing the midfield

Soldado just isn't good enough....far too wasteful.

tippspur

Lucky to be still 0-0,our passing is terrible.

pleasant Co.

chadli on, lamela off

MonkieSocks

lloris " Man Of The Match " home against Palace.

Say's it all about our peformance

debabyjesus

Empty seats all over the lane. Paulinho should be docked a months wages for turning his back on that challenge around the 85th minute. Shocking stuff.

Dublin Spur

that was difficult to watch - Hugo earned us a point

mickman

what absolute drivel

second best at home to palace.

Xmas season will be terrible

Long Time Lurker

There's no way around this. We were pretty poor today and lots of it was obvious as to why. No outlet, no lock picker, no antagonist. Everyone inadvertently passing responsibility. Erikesen is the only outfield player (part from lennon when he came on) who can hold their head up after that.

What's worrying is the managers new found stubborn streak. Is he going head to head with the chairman or something because its all beginning to look a little bit AVB last Xmas. I wont pass judgement on him yet, let's see what he does in the transfer window and try to build his own team.

As for Solado & Lamela. Me thinks it's just not gonna happen for them at Spurs. Watch us move em on and see them flourish elsewhere. Typical spurs.

lamela was a joke again, yet lennon was dropped

i cant get to grips with this mangers decisions at all

MonkieSocks

I still can't see why Pooch plays,

Chadli on the left and lamela on the right.

Both are always going to cut inside and into traffic.

Swap them over, so they can go down the outside on their favoured foot and get crosses in.


We are far too predictable and pedestrian :mad:

tom1ie

It does seem as though poch is trying to prove a point by playing lamella all the time. It's as if he's trying to say to levy/baldini see I told you he was **** let me pick my own players in January but keep your nose out of it Franco.
Don't think that's gonna happen though.
On the point about the wingers playing on the wrong sides and cutting in all the time, didn't we have this problem under avb which led to soldados confidence being shot to pieces which he still hasn't recoverd from?

mushykeogh

Look at the positives, Clean Sheet :eek:
