Meltdown in 3,2,1....

 

[wrd]

Looks like we're rotating for the Leipzig game

Dier - GLC. Quite a difference.

 

[yankspurs]

I might be wrong but when playing football, you’d want players who can move. So why is Dier starting?

 

[mark87]

Annoyed to see Dier starting, however we do have CL on Wednesday and then Chelsea on Saturday so they are two harder games so makes sense he plays today.

Ffs

Good team although I would have preferred glc or ndombele for dier. I guess dier has been told to stick to grealish

 

[danielneeds]

Looks like it’ll be Lo Celso and Ndombele for Leipzig, then.

Dier - GLC. Quite a difference.

I’ll start with the most obvious difference - 5 stone

Which we could easily lose with lo celso

Didn't expect GLC in starting line up. Hopefully 20 mins then a start against Leipzig. Rotation in action.

 

[Monkey boy]

Can we ask them to postpone it instead please?

 

[felmani26]

No Lo Celso starting isn't what the doctor ordered so assuming he's still feeling the affects and want him nursed back slowly.

Dier in though is always disappointing.

Also what's with having 4 CM's on the bench?!?

 

[GMI]

Maybe GLC is not ready for 90mins as he picked up a knock. Dier will need to manage Grealish.

 

[Hotspur88]

We're in trouble today with that line up!

 

[SpursD22]

Davies back, that’s good because Mourinho seems to rate him highly

The midfield worries me a little bit, not much creativity in there so maybe the plan is to sit low and hit them on the counter attacks

Please just win COYS

That was my thinking to. I think we will struggle creativily today tho. Wouldn't be surprised to see Gio coming on around the 60th min

Wise move to rest Tanguy and Lo Celso. I'd much rather them be fit for Leipzig.
