    Dragusin for VdV and the rest pick themselves after last weekends performance.
    Will be good to have Richy as an option, but I wouldn't be in a rush to change the front 3.

    No news on VDV’s injury is probably positive but unlikely to feature again until after the international break.

    Johnson has been doing well these past few weeks but he’s upsetting the likes of Son and Maddison with some of his decision making on the pitch. Improvements will come the more he plays with the team.

    I’m normally quite positive about spurs unless vs Chelsea, Arsenal and Liverpool. I’m not feeling too positive about facing Fulham at home.

    Chris Sutton said that we're guaranteed to drop points in this one, which is usually enough reason to relax and await the three points given his track record of being a clueless gobshite

    Hopefully you’re correct. After all, I’m sure he said we would lose against Villa last week.

    Joao Palhinha will be staying in his own half then?

    Shame about VdV but it will be good to see Radu in action. He did well coming on against Villa but it’s clear he needs a run of games to settle in.

    Dragu and Cuti are basically the bouncers outside a late 90s Croydon nightclub

    Interested to see Dragusin play 90 mins. Thought he looked decent vs Villa and the best compliment I could pay him so far is that I don’t try covering my eyes when he’s on the ball or going to make a tackle like I would with Sanchez and Dier in his latter years.

    Sounds like Solomon is still ages away from returning though. What was meant to be a 2-3 month injury feels like will be a full season one, thought he was looking quite a tidy squad option too in that first couple months of the season. Him and Sessegnon probably becoming good mates.

    First run-out for Spurs, and he looked to be over-aggressive
    physically (which is an issue given woeful PGMOL PL 2nd half officiating) .

    Hoping for composure somewhere between VDV, and Romero on a good day.

    As I've said elsewhere, Solomon's absence is unlikely to be about injury anymore.

    I thought that too, but Postecoglou's comments suggest otherwise.
    I guess we'll eventually find out the truth, but it's all a little odd.

    I think this means that we'll wear this kit for the first time in months.

    As far as we are concerned, that twat is the proverbial broken clock. He always says we'll lose / drop points, so on occasion he will no doubt be correct.
