not sure about that.. think he meant he hasn't got the experience....I think Poch was saying that KWP isn't the only player who can replace Trippier if he's out for weeks.
I was thinking that when he said it. The pressure of getting your first senior start in the first game of the season is enough, he doesn't need an experienced manager like Benitez planning ways to isolate himMaybe Poch is playing it clever here. Saying he's not playing when in fact he will do. Just keeping the pressure off him, keeping Newcastle guessing as to how we are to line up and also to ensure they don't target him.
Where's Phil Ifil when we need him.
That confirms the formation then.Ben Pearce@BenPearceSpurs 1m1 minute ago
#thfc Pochettino seems to have changed tune on Kyle Walker-Peters - says he's deciding whether to pick him or Moussa Sissoko on right side.
He said it is between Sissoko in a 3-4-2-1 or KWP in a 4-2-3-1.That confirms the formation then.
Surprising, thought it'd be 3-4-2-1 either way as it gives KWP the extra cover. Although from what we saw against Juve he was very solid defensively, but slightly tentative going forward.He said it is between Sissoko in a 3-4-2-1 or KWP in a 4-2-3-1.

still don't understand why he failed in such a mysterious way, even worse than ricketts
I think it really depends on whether Wanyama is fit enough to start. If he is, then Sissoko will start at RWB. If he isnt then KWP will be at RB and Dier at DM.He said it is between Sissoko in a 3-4-2-1 or KWP in a 4-2-3-1.
Poch defo said no way on KWP and now he may well play which suggests something may have changed.
Those comments might have made KWP thing "fuck, this is my chance and I'm not taking it, time to sort it out" and then go have a storming week in training to make Pochettino notice. We know how Mauricio loves a good trainer after all.
