Squad for Spurs

10 days to go until the big kick off.

Who do you think will be the starting XI for the game vs spuds (barring any further injuries)

Yedlin is out but that is the only real injury concern I'm aware of. Apart from that Defense picks itself.

Elliot
Mbemba, Lejuene, Clarke, Dummett
Ritchie, Shelvey, Merino, Aarons
Perez
Gayle

Darlow
Manquillo
Lacelles
Murphy
Hayden
De Jong
Mitrovic

 

Elliot
Manquillo (I like mbemba but would rather not start square pegging round holes)
Lejuene/mbemba
Clarke
Dummet
Hayden
Shelvey
Ritchie
Aaron's
Dejong
Gayle

 

It'll probably be something like that but maybe de Jong rather than Perez. Also the option of playing Hayden and Merino deep with Shelvey pushed up rather than Perez. Or try Ritchie in the number 10 with Shelvey and Hayden/Merino deep and Murphy on the wing.

Highlights it would have been nice to have signed a good number10. And a good striker.

 

Similar but have included the new signings:

Elliot
Mbemba, Lejuene, Clarke, Dummett
Ritchie, Shelvey, Merino, Aarons
Windy's First Suprise
Windy's Second Surprise

 

You forgot Fabregas... How could you?

 

Great so we'll be starting the game with 9 players!

 

Pretty much same but, as mentioned, would probs start Hayden instead of De Jong so we can try to stall spurs midfield first half. Would probs have manquillo at RB but i always thought mbemba could do a job there.
like that Murphy/Atsu could come on anytime at either wing. Imagine those two in second half against aisling legs

 

Aarons has got a lot to prove before he can be starting, and I'm not sure about plunging Merino straight in - Atsu and Hayden get the nod ahead of them for me.

And Gayle and Perez up front.

Looking like a distinctly Championship side, Spurs are gonna be a banker in my accumulator.

 

Yeh there's a good chance we'll get spanked but expected no less at the start of summer.
I think the match will be damage limitation so we just need a little positivity to take into the Hudds game.

Am I mental that I put us to draw on my accumulator? Yes, yes I am but the odds were ****ing good

 

Doesn't matter who Rafa picks, we'll win 3-1.

 

Elliott
Manquillo, Lejeune, Clark, Dummett
Hayden
Ritchie. Shelvey. Atsu
Perez
Gayle
Subs
Darlow
Lashelles
Gamez
Mitrovic
Murphy
Diame
De Jong

 

Relegation here we come.

 

I think Murphy will be on the wing. Hayden may be preferred ahead of Merino. Manquillo at RB if Yedlin is out. Gayle and Diame at 9 and 10. Suspect Lejeune will play alongside Mbemba or Lascelles for their pace over Clark given the opposition.

 

Is this Spurs new signing?

 

Are you Chaos in disguise.... Are you Captain Chaos in disguise......

 

.....stand up if you're a pessimist....

 

Yep

 

He's right

 

Guys, come on! We all watched last season, we all said what was needed, we haven't got it.

Actually what I fear isn't relegation, was nice to have a season winning. What I fear most is us approaching every game trying to do what is "necessary" to eke out the odd draw or snatch a win. Football for me is about being entertained, not just collecting points. Gayle's a risk, we already know Perez/Mitrovic won't get into double figures. We look ok-ish, but we're biased, so in fact we're probably worse than that.

Three first-team players short of mid-table in my book. Striker, No. 10, Left back.

 

I think that is more of a long term goal. If we can survive this season then we will be in a better position to build a more entertaining team with better quality players. We will have more financial clout with a season in the prem behind us, plus we will be more attractive to incoming players as a team that hasn't just been promoted. Survival is everything this season.
