Tottenham Hotspur vs Fulham FC

Just looked at the ticket availability for the game and there are loads left.

What makes me laugh is the first tier is 45 for adults and the 2nd tier is 60 fucking quid and the top tier is 40.

60 quid for fulham is a joke.
 
What a jolly atmosphere this will be.

Toby in
Dembele in
Would keep Serge

It’s to use up all the credit the club have given out and make it seem value for money
 
Anyone know who is still on injury list, i.e. Wanyama, winks etc. squad looks thin in middle of pitch. Can't Toby also play def mid? Rather him and dier in middle than Sissoko. In fact we should pay Fulham to let Sissoko and aurier play for them, guaranteed win for spurs

Injury thread is updated. Nice to see you post!
 
Poch has some decisions to make. With a week between games he can let the same team play and give a better account of themselves. He can also change systems and get Toby back in there. 3rd option is to change personnel in the usual 4-2-3-1.

Personally, I would like to see Moura and Sissoko rested and Toby and Dembele come back in. I'm all for giving Davies another go but he needs to figure out how to get his form back. On Saturday he had positional issues, he missed tackles and his crossing was average. It's becoming harder to build a case for him to be in the side after his pore-season and he needs Danny Rose pushing him again. I would have Rose on the bench.
 
Back 3 (Toby, Vert, Sanchez).
Dier in front screening.
Tripps on the left, Aurier (please be better!) on the right.
Erickson central, Lucas on one side, Alli on the other
Kane up top

4-1 - Kane gets his August Goal. Erickson, Lucas, and Alli with the others.

We either concede quickly to go down or they level right after we score...which we have a troubling tendency of allowing.
 
Sorry AirForce, but I'll never get why, in a team built such as ours, that we would put 7 defensively oriented players on the pitch at the same time. If anyone would wonder why we didn't score enough goals.....

3 at the back is fine, but then we should play ATACKERS at the wingbacks, and not weak attackers/primarily defenders. Sure Tripp looked great at the WC, but I'm not convinced he can repeat that quality in the furnace that is the Prem.

We already consistently sacrifice a dangerous attacker (Son) to play a mostly useless extra deep CM. Totally and completely dumb as sh|t.

Why no one is looking at what Pep did.... If they were, they'd see we are perfectly suited to play the same type of formation.

However, if we went w a 3 back, I'd go...

_________Hugo___________
___Toby__Snchz__Vert___
_________Moose_________
Lucas________________Son
___Lamela_Eriksen_Dele___
__________Kane___________

But I'd go w Pep & a back 4....

__________Hugo___________
Tripp__Toby__Vert__Davies
_______Moose(Dier)______
______Eriksen__Dele______
Lucas________________Son
___________Kane___________

[Vorm, Snchz, Dier, Lamela, Aurier, Amos, NkooDoo]

Spurs 9 - Cottagers 0
(Kane 3 Lucas 2, NkooDoo, Toby, Eriksen, Son)


COYS!

I do like that 2nd team xvausch 433.

I still prefer Rose.
 
Yep, that 4-3-3 to me is our strongest shape. Too bad we dont play it enough. We should be playing a ball controling pivot in the 6, and 8.5 box to box that can score, and a 10 type in the hole. Moose-Dele-Eriksen. or (Winks/Amos/Skipp-Dele-Eriksen).

I didn't include Rose because I think he's a goner.

Also wouldn't be opposed to Vert taking the LB spot occasionally, so a back 4 of Tripp-Toby-Snchz-Vert


.
 
433 would suit Moura better and given our interest in Martial and Zaha I thought that's where we were heading.
