Match Threads Watford vs Spurs - Match Thread

[cider spurs]

Please don't tell me that you used the word 'bender', as in, the age old term for a piss up but felt the need to delete it in case it offended someone?

Edit. I hope you're not gonna smoke any fags either!

Nope.

 

[Stamford]

So glad Rose is nowhere to be seen

 

[walworthyid]

5 attacking players! Jose isnt messing about with that line up. We haven't had an identity for over a year now, I hope that this is the start of one!

Obviously I would like a proper footballing dm in there, but this is the way that we should be trying to play.

Will be a very tough game but all I hope is that we actually move the ball around with purpose instead if this side to side slow motion stuff that we've had to endure for the last year!

Actually looking forward to it.

Jose clearly liked what he saw in the second half against pool!

Is Parrott injured?

No, we're convincing him to sign a new contract by freezing him out. Which I'm totally sure will succeed and not backfire massively.

 

[Mandy Dingle]

Didn’t Tanganga finish the Liverpool game at left back when we reverted to a back 4? The kid can play right across the back 4, hope his contract situation gets sorted ASAP.

That's a good point - I had forgotten about that.

Regarding his contract, I think we took the option for an additional year bringing it to 2021, I think? So it gives us at least a little bit more time to sort it out.

Is Parrott injured?

He is sick

 

[mrlilywhite]

Our team looks good, though options from the bench are sparse from an attacking pov. I for one envisage a tough day - Watford is not the team who looked so dire a couple of months back.

 

[Gilzean at the near post]

Team looks good. I really like the concept of letting the opposition worry about our players. As long as the more skilled players who he has selected here put in the workrate we don't necessarily need limited defensive players to clog up the midfield. Let's go

 

[Davo99]

Where is Tanguy?

 

[worcestersauce]

Lo Celso getting two starts on the bounce, that tells us he's making an impression on the boss or Eriksen is off this week or both.

 

[bubble07]

Sanchez dropped was a formality after his aerial issues v Watford. Deeney would have tore him a new one

 

[SpartanSpur]

I'm loving that lineup based on the players available, however that usually is a bad omen. Last time I thought it was an exciting attacking lineup was Norwich away.

Watford are flying, going to be tough. A win would be massive. COYS

 

[bubble07]

So Lloris for Gazzaniga, Ndomble for Winks and Kane for Lucas and that is our strongest team

 

[GutBucket]

Not sure who will play deeper, Alli or Lo Celso, love to see Lamela starting. I hope nobody babysits Aurier and leaves Winks alone in midfield.

 

[Monkey boy]

Watford battered us when they were bottom of the league and winless in 6 games. Here’s hoping it’s role reversals this time.

 

[Japhet]

Hope Winks and Lo Celso don't gethung out to dry in a CM2. Would have liked Skipp in there to try to get control in the middle. Maybe Lamela can keep Capoue tied up a bit deeper.Fingers crossed.

 

[thebenjamin]

Big ask on GLC today.

 

[bubble07]

Rose and Wanyama are just draining our resources now

 

[spursfan77]

Japheth is getting the run around isn’t he. Centreback, rightback and now leftback.

 

[spursfan77]

Tanganga is going straight into my fantasy team this week, he’s so cheap.

Why do it to us!?!? ???
