Ugh.. Hate facing Burnley. 10 men defending for 90 mins

Anyways, here's my take on the lineup

Gazzaniga (Not Gazza, there's only one Gazza)

Aurier Toby Sanchez Rose

Ndombele Lo Celso

Eriksen Alli Son

Kane

Too bad actual games and performances are different than ratings on Fifa. He has only 7 goal and 1 assist in the league, he was completely useless against Utd and Sheffield recently, he has less goals than Ings in the league. His form is objectively bad.

He isn't getting the ball, what's he meant to do with the lack of service?

Look at his form for England and contrast that with his form for us, it tells you all you need to know.

Besides you said that he's been completely shit this season which is utter nonsense, it's been below par and up and down for the reason already mentioned, seems strange you're pointing the finger at Kane when he has been no worse than others - the fact that you want him dropped tells me you're not paying attention to what's been happening on the pitch.

Agree about Kane being dropped, Burnley know how to defend slow forwards, his form has been complete shit this season and he could use some rest.

100% agree . 2 goals in 8 games and he has been missing in the majority of games this season

Sheff utd , man utd , Watford even in the win last week against bournemouth .

2 years ago he had 7 hat tricks for spurs in 2017, he hasnt scored a spurs hat trick in 1.5 seasons . He’s a goalscorer trying to play deep lying Rooney playmaker role at the age of 26 , his ankles have screwed him

Lol. Kane dropped.

He has 3 in 4 since Jose took over. He's also the captain.

There's also nobody to replace him.

Apart from that it's a really good idea.

Agree, and i think we should loan him out to Southend to help out our ex legend ....if he would have him that is , he is after all slow and shit atm...

I give up...

He's getting much better service than Ings and doing much less pressing than him. When he is bad he offers nothing like Moura. No place for arrogance like Alli and Mourinho mentioned.

Yes because when people mention that Moura or Alli (last season) need/ed to be dropped that can only mean sending them to Southend.

Mate just stop, you're not going to drop arguably the best striker in the world, that's just utter nonsense talk.

nonsense.

look at the bigger picture, include CL games and its 13 goals in 19 games.

But he is, he is arguably the best alongside Aguero and Lewandowski.

He doesn't need rest, he needs service.

Even if it's true he won't get any service (if GLC and Ndombele are on the bench) and won't be very useful against Burnley who will park the bus. Also don't see how lack of service prevents him from pressing, looks tired to me.

Mourinho does not favour the intense high press. So that's more than likely why he hasn't been pressing as much as we have seen before.

So drop him for an an inferior player who equally won't get as much service as Kane, how does that make any sense lol

Son doesn't rely on service like Kane and I wouldn't call him inferior either. Having some pace up front would help against their defenders who are big and strong but not very fast.

Kane doesn't solely rely on service, he makes his own chances and he creates for others. The, only thing Son has over Kane is pace but if we're not getting the ball forward quick enough then that pace becomes useless.

Also you said that Burnley defenders are big and strong, so who's going to hold up the ball when it's played into them, that is Kane's role and does it very well, Son not so well.

No more Winks and Sissoko in the middle. Apart from that the same backline, legs withstanding. Maybe put Sissoko out on the right in place of Lucas with Dier coming back in the middle.

I'll not mention TN or GLC as it would only be in hope.

Hoping we get a response and a 2 or 3 goal win to put us back above Yanited.
