I’ve never been a fan of Alli playing deep, to be honest. But we’ve got 6 players on the pitch who can play as CB’s, so if we can’t keep the score down today... well...
KWP backpass to Gazza, Gazza hoofs it upfield - and it sails into the goal thanks to a gust of wind generated by their fans halfheartedly waggling some plastic flags
Wouldn't surprise me, though I don't know why Foyth would be chosen ahead of Walker-Peters in that position. Maybe it give Pochettino the option to use him for either wingback role from the bench? Odd one.
Sort of like how he unearthed the hidden gem Gabriel Jesus, who was so unknown he'd been called up to the Brazil squad several times in the months before they signed him...
Perhaps he’s got walker peters in mind for Brighton, and this game is just too high profile for him right now? Mind you, he couldn’t be any worse than trippier.
Can i just say That hath not noble lustre in your eyes. I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips, Straining upon the start. The game's afoot: Follow your spirit, and upon this charge Cry 'God for Harry, England, and Saint George!' COYS
Channeling my inner RCL, gazza is playing today as he has a younger more flexible back for picking balls out of the net .....COYS
Be prepared for 90+ minutes of backs to the wall and hopefully a few counter attack surprises from us. Will be much different game to last Wednesday. Still bricking it though.
Why have we worn our green kit for the last 2 games? Am I the only one that’s found it difficult to tell ours and City’s kits apart? Our navy kit seems much more logical.
Son and Moura are on the wrong sides, for me. Edit: And as I post that they swap and Son gets a shot on target.
