We will be something like: Lloris Aurier Vertonghen Alderweireld Davies Sissoko Dier Son Alli Eriksen Kane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think it's us and Hull he's scored the most against. Any chance you'll rest players for the bigger game against Barca in mid-week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any chance you'll rest players for the bigger game against Barca in mid-week Possibly - but not that many options to rest. Moura might play instead of one of that front four. Think Winks might be rested, or could come in for one of the other two. Rose won't play, Aurier has to, same with the CB's no other choice. Kane will play and score hopefully yeah.

Subscriber Dan+ Posted December 8, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted December 8, 2018 Kane scores against us every time. It's not even worth getting worried about. We effectively kick the game off at 0-1 as far as I'm concerned. Vardy's a huge miss. He's the master of scoring against the top sides and it's no co-incidence given his style of play. Iheanacho will start because there is literally no other striker. We are badly lacking in that department. We have pinned our hopes on Iheanacho a bit and he is sadly being found badly wanting. I've never been particularly impressed with him. Was excited when we signed him but he's scored I think 4 league goals since we've signed him, got a few assists in fairness but his general game is well off the pace. Gray infuriates me as well but not as much as Iheanacho, I'd actually consider using Gray up front again. We are really lacking in attacking players. It's a shame because it's really working out but him but a Barnes recall needs to be considered. I actually think he'd add something. If he was in our squad he would probably start tomorrow for me.

We apparently do have the option to recall both him and Benkovic but barring an injury crisis (which we could be in the early stages of to be honest) we won't exercise either. I'm not really sure how we'll set up today. No-one could've called that team on Wednesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Storts Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 Awful KO time this - I won’t moan too much now but just look at our away fixtures recently and coming up and they’re taking the piss completely out of the travelling fan Ive had to drive today as no trains back, and not sitting on a wally coach for hours or staying over in Leicester. Nice sober away day. It’s like I’ve actually gone to watch the football today Up the Spurs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice sober away day. It’s like I’ve actually gone to watch the football today Up the Spurs I saw that the last train back is 9.56pm. So even if the match finishes at 9.30pm on the dot (which it obviously won't), there's gonna be a lot of people missing it. Impossible to get from the stadium to the station in under 20-25 minutes if walking. And traffic will be mad so taxis are out of the question, too. And to add on to that, that last train is limited capacity, too Absolute joke really for Spurs fans travelling. But of course, fans are the last people that are thought of when it comes to games being moved for TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Dan+ Posted December 8, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted December 8, 2018 It is disgraceful but is that seriously the last train back? I thought there were ones back later than that. Fans in this country get shafted so frequently yet for some bizarre reason a sizeable number of them seem to defend the fact that happens over themselves. Never understood it.

Subscriber Dan+ Posted December 8, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted December 8, 2018 Am I right in saying this is the first time we've had a TV game with Tottenham since we've come up? That's baffling really given what's happened between the two and the fact it's nearly always a good game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bloody stupid Surprising. Thought they'd have started and then be taken off. Poch's eyes definitely on Tuesday. Change of shape for us. Looks to be 4-3-3 with Maddison and Gray sitting just behind Iheanacho. Not a fan of him playing up top on his own though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
