------------------- Friedel --------------------
Naughton--- Kaboul --- Chiriches ---- Fryers
---------- Holtby ---------- Sandro ----------
Lamela ----------- Eriksen ---------- Chadli
--------------------- Defoe --------------------

I'd bring on Adebayor for Holtby at around the 60 minute mark for a solid cameo. Change the tactics to maybe a 4-4-2.

Personally, I don't want both Holtby & Eriksen playing as want one to be fresh for Sunday. For the same reason, I don't want Sandro playing either.

I would change Eriksen for Sigg & Sandro for Dembele, but apart from that, spot on.

Subs
Lloris, Vertonghen, Walker, Paulinho, Townsend, Eriksen, Defoe

Think some players can be rested for this one...Be great to give Verts, Walker, Paulinho, Sandro and Soldado a complete rest keep them fresh for the weekend. Get eriksen on for chadli at some point and move lamela wide and get eriksen some confidence. Would love to see Kaboul but sadly don't think he is fit (not that we have much info) so didn't include him.

COYS!

 

[eddiebailey]

I would go:

Friedel

Naughton Dawson Chirches Fryers

Dembele Holtby

Lennon Lamela Chadli

Defoe

Subs: Miles, Fredericks, Stewart, Sandro, Eriksson, Kane, Adebayor (with Vigoroux, McEvoy and Lancaster as travelling reserves)

Lloris, Walker, Vertonghen, Paulinho, Townsend, Siggurdsson and Soldaldo can all stay at home and put their feet up.


AVB will, however, put out a much stronger side and we will lose on Sunday…

This is probably the team i'd plump for - Lamela, Eriksen and Chadli need games and this is a good one implement the three without too much at stake although my only problem is trying to possibly incorporate Siggy in the side as basically, I don't want him starting in the league hence forth.

Could be Dembele for Sandro but all in all, i'd be pretty pleased with that lineup and I hope and pray Kaboul makes it through in one piece!

Bearing in mind Kaboul wasn't even on the bench Sunday, it's highly unlikely he will start on Thursday.
AVB has already stated he is having problems with 'secondary' injuries following his long spell out & is still reconditioning his body.

Personally I'd like to see a front 4 of Lennon, Lamela, Chadli, Defoe - keeps things fresh.

Midfield could be Capoue & one of the others. Capoue is a naturally fit guy and could probably get through 60/70 mins at least, assuming his ankle has healed.

Fryers & Naughton at fb (or Rose if fit) with Vlad and Daws/Jan.

I would like to leave some of the others at home - I didn't see the point in taking a full squad to Anzhi, and not using some of them. We'll win this group at a canter, AVB needs to make sure we don't have a repeat of the West Ham game and resting a few might help that.

Is this true or are you pulling our third legs?

From the official site's Travel Advice article. Long live Transnistria:

http://www.tottenhamhotspur.com/news/fc-sheriff-v-spurs-travel-advice-221013/

FC Sheriff’s stadium - Stadionul Sheriff in Tiraspol - is located in the Transnistrian region of Moldova.

This region declared itself independent from Moldova in 1990. Transnistria is not under the control of Moldova authorities and there is an administrative boundary between the region and Moldova.

Documents need to be completed at this border, therefore you should have your passport with you when you are at this point of your journey.

I wouldn't use this game to rest players but to test them in their changed postions e.g Verts.

Friedel

Walker Dawson Chirches Vert

Sandro Dembele

Chadli Eriksen Lamela

Soldado​

I hope the players that are playing next sunday are allowed to watch this game from the comfort of their homes. We simply cannot risk another home defeat to poor opposition.

Friedel
Naughton - Chiriches - Kaboul - Fryers
Sandro - Holtby
Lennon - Sigurdsson - Lamela
Adebayor

​

I don't REALLY think AVB is going to start Adebayor and expect Defoe to start. I think a central midfield of Sandro/Holtby could work. Sandro doing the dirty work, Holtby the creative spark. I think Dembélé will start alongside Paulinho vs Hull this weekend since we're playing weak opposition at home, so it would make sense to give Sandro another 90 minutes in this game if he's fit for it (and it certainly looked like he is vs Villa). The 3 offensive midfielders all interchanging.

Chadli ---------- Kane ---------- Lamela

Holtby ---------- Dembele

Fryers ----- Dawson ----- Kaboul ----- Naughton

That for me is just fine.

Dembele Holtby

Defoe​

Same team for me. Ade and maybe Dawson on the bench for cover, with the rest made up of under 21 players. The other first teamers shouldn't even travel. If you can't give young players experience in these games, you never will.

Gomes/Friedel

Capoue Dembele

[THFC 1882]

Lennon should get some minutes out in Moldova
Lamela needs match practice too

Defoe will start up front

 

[Snarfalicious]

An alternate option (I guess)

-------------------- Friedel -------------------
Naughton --- Kaboul --- Chiriches --- Fryers
--------- Holtby ------------ Dembele -------
-- Lennon -------- Lamela ---------- Chadli -
--------------------- Defoe -------------------

And then against Hull

--------------------- Lloris --------------------
Walker --- Dawson ------- Chiriches -- Verts
--------- Paulinho --------- Sandro ----------
Townsend -------- Eriksen --------- Coin Toss
--------------------Soldado--------------------

We're going to need an active double-pivot against Hull. We're actually really fortunate Livermore can't play against us. I've made a point to watch just about every Hull City match and he's been just as important as Huddlestone. He's basically been acting as his protector given his lack of movement skills.

Friedel
Naughton Kaboul Chiriches Fryers
Dembele Bentaleb
Lamela Eriksen Chadli
Defoe

Bench: Lloris, Walker, Vertonghen, Veljkovic, Holtby, McEvoy, Kane.

 

[Mr Pink]

I'm dreading the Hull game to be honest. I really hope we start injecting some tempo into our game, or it could be another frustrating day.
