[G Ron]

Ben Davies captain is a surprise.

It’s how the cards landed

How did Albert Einstein define madness again?

Doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. Something like that I think.

 

[carpediem991]

Eriksen instead of GLC is absolutely underwhelming...

WTF Aurier Eriksen,Ali !

I mean, he had to start one of Eriksen & Alli?

 

[Seafordian Spurs]

Sure it’s been covered but I’m out and about atm. Where’s Harry?

Ill according to Alistair Gold a few hours ago

 

[yiddopaul]

Eriksen must have some serious dirt on Poch. How the ever living fuck does he start after last week.

I guess the thinking is, play him back into form, so we can get something for him in January... Nope, I'm out of ideas.

Opta stats:

• Everton have lost their last two home league games against Spurs by an aggregate score of 2-9 (0-3 and 2-6). They've never lost three consecutive top-flight home games by a margin of 3+ goals against an opponent before.
• Tottenham are unbeaten in their last 13 Premier League games against Everton (W7 D6), their joint-longest such run against the Toffees in the top-flight (also 13 between 1997-2003).
• Tottenham and Everton are facing each other in a Premier League match with both sides starting the day in the bottom half of the table for the first time since April 2004, when David Moyes' Everton beat David Pleat's Spurs 3-1 at Goodison Park.
• Everton have lost five of their last six Premier League games (W1), winning fewer points in the competition in that period than any other side (3).
• Spurs are winless in their last 11 Premier League away games (D2 L9), their longest such run since a run of 14 between May 2000-January 2001 under George Graham.
• Tottenham have lost 18 games in all competitions in 2019, their most in a calendar year since 2008 (19).
• Everton have won seven of their last nine Premier League home games, though they have lost two of their last three. The Toffees have kept a clean sheet in seven of their last 10 Premier League matches at Goodison Park.

If Aurier fucks up today & costs us again then Poch’s job should be untenable, constantly picking him when he’s cost us so many times can’t be justified

 

[The Opinionated Lurker]

Poch wasn’t so slow to throw Bentaleb and Mason in the mix but he’s so reluctant to start GLC. What’s changed?

 

[glacierSpurs]

I just don't get it. He's a professional footballer and surely capable of playing at least 60min.

Emulating the way Lampard blood Pulisic?

 

[tommyt]

Spelling almost more shocking than eriksens performances

Eriksen's

 

[nugsie]

It's hard work supporting Spurs at the moment, with so many baffling decisions.

Digested read: we’re both shit

 

[Hotspur88]

Good team, hopefully it’s a 4-2-3-1. I know everyone wants Lo Celso to start but he’s probably not fit enough to start. Happy Sessegnon and Parrott are on the bench

Last start a win streak COYS

Not fit enough to start?! I'm sorry but that is bollocks!

No he didn't. That's a bullshit phrase attributed to Einstein incorrectly.

 

[chelmyid]

Poch would be given so much more Respect from the fan base and others if he ostracised Eriksen - I cannot understand why he doesn’t just isolate him. If he were playing like Ramsey did before he left then so be it - but he’s not. He is taking the royal piss and still getting picked ahead of players who are committed and then poch wonders why players and fans question his philosophy now? It’s boring now and it’s undermining everything he has originally stood for. That alone tells me all I need to know about poch’s head space as well.

 

[phillipjpalmer]

Worried today, we lose and Walcott scores is the stuff of nightmares

 

[daryl hannah]

January transfer values being preserved 'just in case' we get any offers for Eriksen and Aurier.
