Benfica Vs Tottenham: Match Thread

[Spursidol]

So far it looks like Spurs without Lloris, Lamela, Capoue, Dembele, Paulinho, Adebayor, Dawson, Chiriches, Kaboul & Walker all out injured, Vertonghen is banned.

7 youngsters yet to make their first team debut travek.

Hope so, pointless risking important players on a dead rubber.

If United can do it.....lets win this! (I even had hopes against RM in the CL after the first leg...)

Easier to win this than to finish 4th.

The u21s are a good bunch of players, who know each other quite well. Although we may lose, we may see more of a 'team' permorfance.

I fear for our team tonight. No experienced centre backs, no decent fullbacks and a goalie not suited to a high line. Watched every game this season but out tonight and not worried about not seeing the game.

 

[TEESSIDE1]

We've no recognised centre backs and only 2 recognised centre mids and 1's carrying an injury. I predict a massacre

...................Friedel...............

N'ton...Veljkovic...Fryers...Rose

...........Sandro....Bentaleb.......

Townsend.....Eriksen......Chadli

..................Soldado...............

When we used to be in the UEFA cup before our champs league season I always thought we could beat anyone, especially in the Jol days (before Harry picked kids)

 

[Spurvert]

We haven't got a chance and will lose by at least 2

Just being honest. Think I'll be in the gym instead of watching this one

 

[shelfboy68]

Looking like another heavy defeat again least we are used to it this season think I might give this game a miss.

All our remaining games are dead rubbers imo. Just depends if we're bothered about finishing 5th or 7th.

 

[stevenurse]

How the shit can we have so many injuries? Defies logic, then again, what has ever been logical about Tottenham Hotspur.

 

[M.I.B.]

Why does everyone keep putting Walker in the team?

He is out too. And Lloris didn't travel, did he?

 

[Archibald&Crooks]

Benfica 4/6? Seriously?

Again, the bookies are giving away free money.

 

[M.I.B.]

Brad - Naughts - Sandro - Velks - Fryers - Townsend - Erik - Nabil - Lennon - Soldado - Kane

 

[DOX]

At least, we can now fully concentrate on not finishing 4th.

Where you see 4/6?

 

[Grey Fox]

My better half will come in from work about half time so I intend to earn lots of brownie points by turning it off when she comes in and ask how her day went and tell her she is far more important than some stupid football match.


The problem with this, is it could create a precedent for next season when we might be enjoying games again. (Lives in hope)

Which bookies?

 

[Daredevil]

Sandro, Naughton & Fryers in a 3-5-2 please Tim.

And 3 goals.
