@SpursOfficial: #THFC team: Lloris (c), Walker, Fazio, Vertonghen, Rose; Bentaleb, Mason; Chadli, Eriksen, Townsend; Kane Discuss.
We line up pretty much as expected. Lloris, Walker, Fazio, Vertonghen, Rose? Bentaleb, Nason, Townsend, Eriksen, chadli, Kane. Not a Rose fan. Why no Davies?
Can not see that side beating chelsea unless chelsea are below par ... I think that walker is not match fit for a game v chelsea, townsend doesnt offer enough cover to the defence and our midfield will be to far away from kane to support him. I aint criticisng the team or MP but think chelsea are simply too good for us
The Chelsea team is their first choice XI. No injuries, no suspensions, no players rested or on holiday leave. Ominous
It stopped for a minute so I changed the link. http://www.footylive-riderhd.com It's very nice. Only a few seconds behind BT Sport.
"The Chelsea team is their first choice XI. No injuries, no suspensions, no players rested or on holiday leave." No excuses then when we beat them.
Chiriches and Davies unlucky to lose their places. Townsend lucky to be playing IMHO. Hope to be proved wrong. In fact it's almost the other way round - play the more attacking full backs against ManU suspect defence and the stronger defensive full backs against Chelsea. But we've got that in reverse somehow.
So unprofessional of Mason and Spurs! Surely if you know you have to come off you get the physio on, treat the injury giving the sub time to sort himself out. And why does the sub take so long to get ready?!
