Match Threads BURNLEY vs TOTTENHAM - MATCH DAY 4

[Whoami?]

That's a great line up! Really excited to see how we do. Pleased Phillips makes bench as well.

 

[TheChosenOne]

Hope Son magically discovers an ability to control and then hold onto the ball.

And not just run forward with the ball then turn a 180 and give up .

 

[SirHarryHotspur]

Maybe Ange sees Phillips competing for a CB position this season and not the future , will certainly add height at the back if he pairs up with VDV

 

[mil1lion]

Had a feeling Son was being moved to centre forward.
Plenty of options out wide and he doesn't really fit the requirement of a wide attacker. Plus he's getting older now.
Looking forward to see how Soloman does. He hasn't had much chance early but to see him in the first team rather than a much changed one will be good. Plus he seems to prefer the left side.

 

[jezz]

Deki up front and Solomon right?

 

[theShiznit]

Hope Solomon can play a bit more with his head up today especially if Udogie is bombing past him

Bad thing with him starting is the bench is severely lacking in pace.

 

[Misfit]

No complaints with that. Phillips getting the nod on the bench feels significant.

 

[thebenjamin]

Never been convinced by Son up front, but let's hope it works. Our season relies on it.

 

[Dannyspur]

Richarleson being rested for the international break?

 

[Fredo]

Deki up front and Solomon right?

Son up front

 

[0-Tibsy-0]

I think Richarlison will make more of an impact hassling defenders from the bench.

 

[JUSTINSIGNAL]

That bench is proper shite. No gamechangers in there.

That’s the spirit

 

[Yiddo100]

Maybe Ange sees Phillips competing for a CB position this season and not the future , will certainly add height at the back if he pairs up with VDV

Might be a bit of that but I think it’s more of a case of Dier really being not up to it. I’m sure he’d not have Phillips on the bench.

 

[isaac94]

Phillips over dier, beautiful stuff

Massive statement by Ange regarding how he rates Dier, picking a lad who has played 8 Championship games above him

 

[mil1lion]

That bench is proper shite. No gamechangers in there.

Perisic is and Richarlison certainly is capable. In fact as a combination with Perisic crossing to Richarlison it's a good plan B.

 

[Ron Burgundy]

That bench is proper shite. No gamechangers in there.

Richi to add some muscle. But I know what you mean.

Will be better with Johnson and Bentancur.

Shame no extra striker

 

[Johnny J]

Seven defensive players on the bench. We really needed another CF.

 

[Romulus]

I like this team. its built to attack.

Solomon should also thrive with better players around him.

 

[Goobers]

As I 'm sure Ange would say if you're not going to be there at the destination then there is little point in taking you on the journey.

 

[Gedi]

I think Richarlison will make more of an impact hassling defenders from the bench.

Unfortunately I think you could be right. If any of them come anywhere near the touch line, his scowl from the bench will likely be more intimidating than anything he’s shown on the pitch recently!
