Sunderland Vs Tottenham: Match Thread

[EnfieldYiddo]

What is up with Rose? He seems to have a constant niggling injury this season.

Also, our midfield options look desperately lacking in quality... Carroll our first option off the bench.... Never mind striking options.

Still, great to see Son start but our team on paper is just a tad uninspiring.

Greetings to Clinton.

Eh?

 

[Spurger King]

Literally no surprises.

Alli starting is a bit of a surprise. A good one.

 

[CJMurray]

Fucking Davies again.

 

[nuttynoah]

COYS

another must win game.

 

[Monkey boy]

Where's pritch?

 

[charliemouse]

I don't get why we play a system where having attacking full backs is so important, and then play two players who are both fairly useless going forward in that position.

 

[EnfieldYiddo]

No idea who will be the creative force in the front 4, all our goal scorers by trade and lack real guile.

Mason is going to have put in a mammoth shift

Anyone else rather Alli next to Dier and Mason in the number 10?

 

[THFCSPURS19]

Defoe, Borini, and Toivonen all starting for them lol.

 

[Maxtremist]

Njie and Pritch not completely match fit you'd have to guess. Rose not there yet either but closer.

Overall given our squad I'm happy with this line up. Happy Alli gets a chance and Son gets to show us what he can do too

 

[chrissivad]

Where's pritch?

Hoping not far away from getting his fitness up.
Would be good to see him on the bench mid week

 

[13VanDerBale13]

N'Jie should be involved on Thursday & hopefully Eriksen/Dembele are back for the Palace game & our bench will look much stronger.

 

[nightgoat]

Where are all the gloommongers insisting there was no way Pochettino would start Son straight away?

 

[joelstinton14]

excited to see Son and Alli.

Seems there are a few niggling injuries in the squad But we got a good enough to side win today .

 

[carpediem991]

Would have prefered the other two full backs but like this line up. What is with Bentaleb?

 

[Ribble]

Love that Alli has already got a starting spot, slightly worried that Eriksen is still out entirely, any news on him?

I'm guessing Njie and Pritch miss out because of injury concerns, and similar for Rose not starting. I wonder if Winks is a late change, maybe for Pritchard?

 

[HildoSpur]

Fantastic to see Alli get a start - he must be absolute dynamite in training. Good luck to the lad.

 

[lukadownthelane]

Fairly happy with the team but disappointed that Pritch isn't in the squad. He should be there instead of Townsend or Lamela

 

[THFCSPURS19]

Would have prefered the other two full backs but like this line up. What is with Bentaleb?

Bentaleb has a foot injury.A few sites reported it a day or two ago.

Hope Alli and son score to see the headlines Allison! tomorrow
