Team v Villa

[spurs9]

Lloris

McNeff Gallifuoco Vertonghen Rose

Paulinho Veljkovic Bentaleb

Pritchard Kane Eriksen

​

I agree with the GK, Mid and Forwards but would put Fryers in over Gallifuoco (I hear he rarely impresses for the U21 and makes alot of mistakes) and would play Naughton as too much inexperience in one game can mean the youngsters don't learn as much and it can damage their confidence.

If Capoue's fit (or Sandro) we could play him in CM and put Veljkovic at CB ?

Possibly, my only worry would be that Veljkovic usually plays DMC for our U21's and I think it would be good for Fryers to get some time at CB.

I Would rather have a look at another prospect in the hope there may be the germ of a new beginning. I've pretty much seen enough of Fryers to know he isn't the future.

That is a bit harsh considering he is 21 and how much he has developed in the last 3 years.

Don't get me wrong, he's done a job when called on, he'll earn a living, I just don't think he's going to be good enough to play regularly for a club at the top end.

I'd just like to have a look at a couple of others who've come through our (very good) system.

I'm with you on seeing others who have come through our system but also wary that if we have too many youngsters on the pitch it can be detrimental to their development if they don't have the right players around them or if they are relied on too heavily. That's why I would like to see Milos in DMC as he has played most of the last 18 months there (other than the odd 1 or 2 games for our U21's and all his games or Serbia U19's). Also at DMC he won't be as "expossed" as he would at CB and there is (slightly) more room for error. Also, in your initial line up, he would be paired with his familiar MC partner who he knows well from the U21 and who has also had to step up from the U21, so his guidance could be very useful and the other side of his is a Brazilian international.

I also think that aside from Fryers, no CB from our development squad is anywhere near ready for 1st team football.

[yankspurs]

What I REALLY want to see
Friedel*
Fredricks Vlad Vertonghen Fryers
Sandro Veljkovic Dembele
Pritchard Soldado Eriksen

Bench: Gomes, Capoue, Winks, Onomah, Kane, McEvoy, Naughton

*Give Lloris a rest before WC. Friedel gets a good bye match(if he retires).

What we'll get
Lloris
Naughton Dawson Vertonghen Rose
Lennon Sandro Bentaleb Eriksen
Adebayor Kane

Bench Friedel, Veljkovic, Pritchard, Capoue, Soldado, Vlad, Oglivie

I'm sure Tim will give Nabil another game. He cant really justify using Chadli or Siggy in a CM 2 again. He'll drop Paulinho. No other person to play. Doubt he'll start Capoue, Veljkovic or any of the other youth CMs with Bentaleb. Lennon and Ade are his undroppables.

 

[Everlasting Seconds]

Surprised so few of you are listing Lamela.
I'd like to see Lloris, Naughton, Vlad, Vertonghen, Fryers, Sandro, Capoue, Eriksen, Lamela, Soldado, Kane
I don't really understand those who think starting Vlad as a full back is a good idea. We've been slating TS enough for starting players out of position. Vlad has rarely played FB ever.

I think everyone has come to terms with the fact that we won't be seeing Lamela.

Best thing that can come from this weekend is seeing some more of our youth talent. Veljikovic must start, would like to see Pritchard would be nice too.

Maybe. Not me. If Pritchard is ready to start in PL, then Lamela should be too.

He's "injured" isn't he?

 

[Everlasting Seconds]

He's "injured" isn't he?

They sure are sticking to that story. I suppose there is a chance he actually is.

 

[Mattspur]

Adebayor Soldado Kane
Eriksen Paulinho
Sandro Chiriches
Vertonghen Dawson Kaboul
Lloris​

 

[ardiles]

Whoever we put out, I hope that we go for a win.

I'd like us to qualify for the EL and with an added bonus of finishing the season
above Yanited.

 

[ardiles&villa]

Couldnt give a toss but want veljkovic and pritchard to start...

 

[ilikeost]

I want us to finish above United so we need a point. Aston Villa is safe and simply a shit side, we should smash them but my bet is on a 2-1 win.
