Benfica Vs Tottenham: Match Thread

Is Winks actually a player or is that sub just a secret?

What is the point of Eriksen being on the bench seriously.

Sometimes complaining of our line up may be justified but for people on here moaning about today's team, a game with no real meaning whatsoever, is just way out of any sensible proportion.

Sounds bad, but I kinda want us not to get Europa League football next year. Firstly don't think we deserve it and secondly I just don't get the same emotional attachment to the Europa League.

I know there is a Champions League spot on offer next season for the winners, but they only brought that in because the quality of teams that drop down into the Europa League is getting better and better making them more likely to win it anyways.

I tried thinking of a genuine response
and then a funny one
and then just anything.....

and there's nothing

 

[DEFchenkOE]

Holtby out on loan and Sig as a defensive mid. Excellent, we'll show you europe!!

 

[SargeantMeatCurtains]

So he presumably rests Christian Eriksen, then fields a piss poor team with all of our fit wingers?!

That team has no balance to it, offers no protection whatsoever to our botch job defence, and friedel starts against a team that split our high line open time after time last week.

Tim Sherwood, somehow he manages to outdo himself every week without fail.

He truly is as thick as shit.

Dont really see the point of taking veljkovic and Ball and not playing them. Surely they will be a better CB partnership than Sandro and Fryers.

I mean there's not really any point to life either in the end is there, I don't know how you make it through the day

 

[dondo]

HAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHA! I don't like you Sherwood. No Eriksen is just blasphemous. Bentaleb and Lennon will never ever be dropped.

Lennon was dropped sunday, bentaleb has been dropped for a few games lately as well.
Im pretty sure sherwood will not be in charge next season so please change the record mate

 

[talkshowhost86]

If this goes really wrong tonight do we think Timbo might be out on his ear?

 

[Lufti]

You've got to laugh. This is just about the worst team he could have put out

 

[CosmicHotspur]

I see Jenas is an "expert" on the panel again on ITV4.

I blame him. Or I might later on this evening.

Yes there is a point in life for me. But, I have learned that at times, I am pragmatic and realise to take matters with a pinch of salt.

 

[Bennys LOL]

Harry Winks hahahahaha thats got to be a wind up

 

[Chris12]

I understand people wanting to defend Sherwood because he is out manager and should get time and blah blah blah and i dont like the attacking of him either, but lets be honest... the guy knows how to shoot himself in the foot

 

[yido_number1]

We should just go mental tonight and all guns blazing... its game over but why not try and snatch some form of glory !!

 

[CosmicHotspur]

I see Rodrigo isn't in the starting lineup.

 

[johnny69]

How bad is it when you would settle for your team to lose
2-0? But I would...it's not right is it?... just leave us some dignity!!

 

[Gaz_Gammon]

Why play sigurdsson ?

Messi was Cup Tied.
