Luckily, if we're as crap in this game as we were last week, I can switch over at half time to watch Suits. :::EDIT::: Lloris; Naughton, Dawson, Vertonghen, Fryers; Sandro, Townsend, Dembele, Eriksen; Adebayor, Soldado Subs: Friedel, Veljkovic, Bentaleb, Chadli, Lennon, Paulinho, Kane Hopefully this isn't a sign that Bentaleb is being rested for the weekend...
I am delighted to hear that Sandro is back the player who can make so much difference to our overall performance.
This might sound silly but I have a feeling that that the lower light levels in the UK compared to Spain is a factor in what is a skill of minute differences.
LIght levels in Spain will be higher because it is nearer to the equator, I am suggesting that Soldado has to adjust to that.
He'd hate an evening game in League Two - the standard brightness for floodlights is 2/3 what they are in the Premier League.
It is just possible it is a factor along with temperature and of course the biggest factor speed of the game.
To be honest I think this excuse should have been wheeled out months ago, it seems pretty obvious especially with all this rain.
Being serious for a minute it's great to have Sandro, Paulinho and Dembele back all in the same match squad. That's a powerful midfield if they can all start playing together until the end of the season.
You shouldn't knock a player after one thing but that was a sh*t cross by Fryers. From what I have seen he really isn't good enough.
