Team v Bournemouth

[WiganSpur]

Janssen should start with Son up front

 

[southlondonyiddo]

Play most of the U23's

Rest most of those that took part Tuesday

CL SEMI FINAL!!!!! is the much more important game

Go all out to beat Ajax and Everton

3 more points is enough for CL next season

 

[Khilari]

I've said in another thread I was pleasantly surprised at how much more direct we looked with Janssen on the pitch, I'd be massively surprised if Pochettino started him but would expect to see him come off the bench if we need a goal.

What's the betting we draw both games and go above Arsenal on GD alone?

Quite a Spursy prospect but there is 1 problem with that concept

We don’t do draws!

Just give Bournemouth the three points now so

 

[james Stock]

Beat B'mouth and go into the second leg knowing we can go for broke.

That team has no goals in it whatsoever

The annoying thing is that if we'd beaten West Ham (or Burnley or Southampton) we could easily play that side and not have to worry about top 4, and go into the CL SF 2nd leg with a rested XI against an Ajax team who is playing in their domestic cup final this weekend.

 

[vuzp]

this is why I wanted us to go all out against Wet Spam and win the game as it would have given some players a rest for the 2nd leg but now I think we need to go full strength on Saturday and some guys really need to put a shift in.

 

[djee]

Lloris - KWP, Foyth, Toby, Davies - Sissoko, Dier - Dele, Eriksen, Lucas - Son

 

[archiewasking]

Really don't want to use Son unless we have to. He will be crucial to our chances in Amsterdam. It would be just our luck for him to get crocked. Sissoko likewise.

But Son has had a full week’s rest. We only have a few more games left. We need to put out our best side for this game (and against Ajax ).

Every game left is important (except for the Everton game if we have already secured CL for next season prior playing Everton).

Winning at Bournemouth should be easier than winning at Ajax so we shouldn’t miss this opportunity to go for it against Bournemouth.

If we lose to Bournemouth and Ajax, it will place a lot of pressure on our team plagued with injuries, tired players and players off-form. Everton have young, pacy players that could turn the game around. I wouldn’t want to bank our hopes for CL next season, on the Everton game.

Moreover, if we can secure next season’s CL by beating Bournemouth, it should surely give a boost to the players going into the game against Ajax.

 

[Seafordian Spurs]

Rest players - why? We need to secure CL for next season then throw everything (left) at Ajax.

They're on holiday soon. Get on that pitch, millionaire twenty somethings!!

And if he doesn’t play for 10 days he may lose some sharpness - he’s a player who needs to be playing.

Not sure why bedfordspurs found this amusing. I want Son to play, score a goal or two, and look sharp and feel like a world beater going into our biggest game in memory. I also want to beat Bournemouth so we qualify for next seasons CL and keep our best players as well as attracting the best players.

That's the most frustrating thing about those games - even though you blow a fuse at the time, you know that they will come back and kick you in the bollocks twice as hard when you need to catch a break.

 

[Gareth88]

Stating the obvious but even writing this starting 11 had me realising how limited we are outside first 11.

Surely the point of throwing everything at Ajax is to win the CL in which case we secure CL anyway. To be honest I can't see us coming away from Bournemouth without the points.

I can Bournemouth have a lot of resolve they will be up for this game if we go in thinking it will be a cake walk we will end up regretting it
