Sheffield United FC vs Tottenham Hotspur

[Harry-Kari]

Just read a projected 11 for tonight...

Lloris
Auria-Alders-Verts-Sessy
Maura-Sissy-LoCelso-Son
Kane - Dele

Some bench left eh!
What do you all think, me I went mmmm! COYS

If that’s true and we win then miracles do happen

 

[Gary Onedaysoon]

My starting selection for tonight:

Lloris; Aurier, Sanchez, Dier, Sessegnon; Sissoko, Winks; Lo Celso, N'dombele, Son; Kane.

I'd like to see that team except the Winks/Sissoko pairing. I can't see Jose starting with it though. He seems to prefer three attackers. I can see Bergwijn starting instead of Ndombele but with that latter coming on in the second half.

I just think he'll change from his normal line up to an attacking 4-4-2 as both Sess and Aurier can go at them then and push them back down the flanks amd Sissoko holding with Winks and Lo Celso + Ndombele pressing behind the two forwards in the hole would really push them off balance and assuming that we play higher up the pitch would but us in charge from start to finish...he always has the option to adjust us tactically of course - but you're probably right, he'll employ caution in the first half before trying to end the game as a contest in the second.

I was getting quite excited by that approach until I read your last sentence. Lol.

 

[Gary Onedaysoon]

hahaha I've been good mate....considering.

Looking forward to getting back in the pub Saturday!

Hope everyone's been keeping well

God, I would love a cold pint of draught Guinness now. It's good out of the tin but nothing like the real thing.

TBH Ex, I had totally forgotten about a player named Sess, such has been the season for him. I admire your expectations of him at this stage though. All eyes on him through the pre-season.

I had very high expectations of him.....perhaps I am a little impatient!

 

[Departed]

𝗧𝗘𝗔𝗠 𝗡𝗘𝗪𝗦! Lloris (C), Aurier, Dier, Sanchez, Davies, Sissoko, Lo Celso, Bergwijn, Lucas, Son, Kane.

 

[Spesh-Spur]

𝗧𝗘𝗔𝗠 𝗡𝗘𝗪𝗦! Lloris (C), Aurier, Dier, Sanchez, Davies, Sissoko, Lo Celso, Bergwijn, Lucas, Son, Kane.

Start with that solid set-up. Get a couple of goals then let Lamela, N'Dom, Gio come on and tear it up maybe?

Sessegnon doesn't even make the squad.

I can't fathom how Moura has kept his place.

Sissoko will have to work his balls off again.Not impressed with that MF.

 

[stupops]

N'dom missing. Again. Its not looking good is it....

 

[meee93]

thatis certainly an attacking line up. Wonder which of lucas and son will play centrally

Are you envisaging one of them playing alongside Kane? I presumed Bergwijn would be playing in a slightly deeper role leaving those three to play in their normal positions.

 

[Gary Onedaysoon]

I think he'll come on in the second half. Jose has already said he will play some part.

 

[Spursex]

Oh well no start for N'dom...shame. Let's hope he gets into the game later.

 

[Thfctditd]

Either 2 up top or Bergwijn in the hole in 4231 which is my fifa team regarding thd midfield and attack with the exception of Ndombele for Sissoko lol

 

[Nick Real Deal]

Interesting Chris Wilder thinks Jose is better than Spurs. He said we are top side with an even better manager !!

 

[Nick Real Deal]

3-0 to us with 5 minutes left , he might .

 

[muttley]

Interesting selection by Jose.

Be interesting to see who plays in which positions up top.

Nobody can accuse Jose of being defensive minded or having favourites like Dele.

Yep, thinking it'll be Lucas behind/with Kane and Bergwijn baby sitting Aurier. Alternatively it could be Son with Kane and Bergwijn on the left, but I think that leaves Aurier too exposed when Lucas drifts inside.
