Team v Huddersfield

[Bulletspur]

Can't believe how many people are putting out a weakened team for this one. This is an absolutely crucial game, we have to get the 3 points and improving our goal difference could make all the difference. There is absolutely no room for any complacency. If we are winning comfortably after 60 mins then we can start thinking about resting people.

What I haven't seen being mentioned is the fact that it may come down to goal difference to maintain top four. So under these circumstances we should play our strongest team and try to score as much as possible. No disrespect to Huddersfield of course.

We're playing Huddersfield, they're shit.

That's exactly the attitude that cost us the Southampton game.

Yeah we just need to make sure that the boys don't login to SC and read my comments before the match this time.

Dele’s arm is in a cast apparently so he’s got to be a doubt. That will be a huge miss. It never rains but it pours.

If it's not too bad then just use the same cast as Vardy used to use and he can play.

 

[Sandros Shiny Head]

Can't imagine Son has an injury, his goal was literally the first thing that happened after he was down

 

[Mouse!]

Assuming Alli is out.

Lloris
KWP, Toby, Jan, Davies;
Wanyama, Winks;
Moura, Eriksen, Son;
Llorente.

Gazza, Rose, Sanchez, Foyth, Skipp, Sissoko, Parrott.

 

[SpursAddict]

Lloris
KWP Foyth Sanchez Toby Davies
Sissoko Wanyama
Lucas Eriksen
Son

That team should do the job

If Dele's hand is broken and requires an operation, then that may well be 3 weeks in a cast ruling him out of 5 crucial games.

Of the closet?

 

[tippspur59]

be nice if Lamela and Dier were fit for this, ideal game for them to get back playing, someone told me today that this game is going out live on Sky one free to air.

Lamela is done in the Prem, I’d say. His body can’t keep up. Back to Serie A or China

I'm a married man but would easily swing if it meant I could enjoy Saturday ?

Holy batshit it appears you're right.

Saturday morning, 11.30am on Sky One, immediately after Soccer AM, Tottenham v Huddersfield.

And I'm working

Play the strongest team if everyone is fit. We need to solidify our hold on a Top 4 place and winning against Huddersfield is a must.

This.

I don't really mind if we play Son up top or Llorente but IMO we need to go as full strength as possible and with all due respect to Huddersfield, we need to hammer them into the ground.

The confidence boost from a 5-0 drubbing would be nothing but positive and when you win big players don't really feel as tired. We simply cannot take our eye off the ball for this top 4 run-in, particulary considering that this weekend, Chelsea are away to Liverpool (hopefully lose) and Arsenal are away to Watford (another game they could easily lose). Utd face West Ham at home so they'll win. If all of that happens then league would look like this:

3rd - Spurs - 67
4th - Chelsea - 66
5th - Utd - 64
6th - Goons - 63

This will matter because we go away to City in the league next where getting any points will be tricky. This top 4 race is gonna shift around a fair bit but we're well placed if we win the games at home and that 1 away game at Bournemouth.

I really feel like finishing top 4 is important for what kind of business we do in the summer and the targets we shoot for, JJ has pretty much said this.

Don't be so sure Utd will beat West Ham. The Solskjaer bubble seems to have burst somewhat.
