Malaysia X1 Vs Tottenham: Match Thread

[GutBucket]

Hope Onomah, Walker-Peters and Ward also get the chance to play.

Soldado and Fazio don't even make the bench...

To be fair this is a tour where we are trying to highlight the commercial plus side of Tottenham...

 

[Spursidol]

Is it unlimited subs?

who knows - as its more like a freindly they will have agreed before the game, but with that no of subs I'd expect many more than 3 coming on as subs

Winks!!!!

Quick question - whats that formation

Possibley 433, that would be interesting, with Bentaleb holding and Carroll and Winks playing off him.

Soldado and Fazio don't even make the bench...

Curious that.. can't be injury..

According to local reports, the match may be under threat from a torrential storm over the area.

I don't think that is possible

 

[Spursidol]

Isn't Winks more defensive minded than his position in that lineup suggests?

Winks is a pretty good in both defence and attack, usually plays as a CM but has been known to play as a no 10, allthough at youth level there is decent competition (eg Onomah) for no 10 spot so he's usually a CM

Yes, free.

Not defensive minded but he does often play as a deep playmaker so this is probably the closest we will get to playing 433

Onomah is more an AM, similar dribbling skills to Dembele but with better passing and vision

 

[@Bobby__Lucky]

Be interesting to see what Carroll does at #10, do your stuff Tom, make your mark son!

-------------------------Lloris------------------------

Yedlin--------Dier--------------Verts--------Rose

--------------Stambouli-----Winks--------------

Townsend-----------Carroll------------Eriksen

-------------------------Kane---------------------------

Something like that i would imagine.

Surely swap Carroll with Winks

 

[garryparkerschest]

I don't think that is possible

Why's that?

The formation would be

-----------------------------------------------------------Lloris

Yedlin----------------------------Dier--------------------------------Vertonghen----------------------Rose

--------------------------------------------------------Stambouli

-------------------------------------Winks--------------------------------Caroll

Townsend--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Eriksen

----------------------------------------------------------Kane

Why's that?

The formation would be


Lloris

Yedlin Dier Vertonghen Rose

Bentaleb

Winks Caroll

Townsend Eriksen

Kane

Bentaleb isn't starting

The formation would be


Lloris

Yedlin Dier Vertonghen Rose

Bentaleb

Winks Caroll

Townsend Eriksen

Kane

Bentaleb is not playing

 

[IGSpur]

Looking at the winger options again especially as Pritchard hasn't gone, I feel this is a missed opportunity to take and try Oduwa. He has performed well in Malaysia before

 

[garryparkerschest]

Bentaleb is not playing

Good point, well put.

 

[Blake Griffin]

Surely swap Carroll with Winks

could be, though carroll does play #10 for england u21s quite a lot. either would be fine really, just as long as it's not eriksen 10 and one of those shifted to the left
