Spurs v Wimbledon Match Thread

Is Edwards on the shop window bench?

Edit: No, ffs

Probably because it's our most realistic chance of silverware this season.

And their inclusions are paramount in beating AFC Wimbledon at home?

Was an ideal opportunity to give these two a much needed break which would give us a better chance of silverware when they aren't flagging hard come the business end of the season!

Walker peters and Foyth! Boom.

Maybe with the league slipping by the wayside, Poch has decided he wants a cup.

I don't like Kane playing in these games. Remember him missing a month after getting injured against millwall? You can't tell me we can't give him a rest for games like this.

 

[St José Dominguez]

No idea what point of GKN being on bench is. Sissoko starting ahead of him after his horrible performance other day shows his time here is done. Would've been nice to see a youngster there instead of GKN.

Personally I would have rested Kane too, but I can see the reasoning, with us having pissed away the Caraararrraboo cup.

It's a week until the next game.

Knowing Kane as we do, I wouldn’t be surprised if he had his eye on winning the cup and scoring in every round.

Shame Tripps and KWP weren’t switched.

Ah the mighty league cup, the last bastion of the argument "And what have you won lately?!"

 

[Johnny J]

Bench: Lloris, Son, Nkoudou, Dier, Eriksen, Davies

True enough, but it's only about 4 games to win the damn thing.

Think it's more the risk of injury against a bunch of cloggers than adequate rest until next game that has a few more of us concerned.

 

[Hazardousman]

If Kane is fit, he will want to play, I doubt he is the kind of player that would ask Poch for a rest, he will be wanting to score as often as possible, that's part of what makes him the player he is.

If he gets injured he will get injured, could happen in any game.

 

[Janice]

Cool so glad kwp is getting a start, a chance to try 2 up front perhaps see if the combo is any good?

 

[yankspurs]

The persistance with sissoko is the 8th wonder of the world

I figure i should just quote myself instead of saying the same thing over and over again

 

[The Apprentice]

We should take them to the cleaners with that team.

But, that’s pretty much it for all of our youth players for this season. If none of them can get a sniff of the bench for this game, they may as well pack up for the year.

Amazing that Poch can’t at least find places on the bench for a handful of the youngsters. Eriksen needed on the bench? Seriously.

Would have loved to have seen Poch give Skipp a start alongside some experienced heads. Or Amos.

Big opportunity missed.

But there's more chance of injury with fatigue, and the more games you play, the more likely you are to get injured.

 

[IGSpur]

People moan when we rotate, and people moan when we dont take the cups seriously.

TLDR: People will moan.

Surely you can take a cup game seriously and still have at least one kid from the academy on the bench.

Yeah but Pochettino is very willing to play youth and all that
