Everton [H] Sat 23 Dec, 3pm... oooooooh

[Spurshaker]

I'll be there, usual place, but a bit later than usual, as meeting some old friends in the Coach and Horses first. And if we're in the mood for celebrating afterwards, it's going to be a long day........ eh Spurshaker ?

Will be in C & H first as usual, then the shelf bar for the last hour and a bit.

 

[Nutter-Naylor]

Johnson and Lo Celso are available tomorrow.

One of the old faces is doing a book signing in the C&H from 11.30am tomorrow. Up your street.

Bit early for me.

 

[Nutter-Naylor]

Got my ticket. Hope to see some TFCers and celebrate smashing the Toffees.

Yep. I'm doing this one.

3pm Saturday - be rude not to.

Ange's press conference seemed to simply say Johnson and Lo Celso have trained all week so should be available for Everton

He was asked about Maddison and Van de Ven but simply said they were progressing well but nowhere near first team duties.

Phillips seen in videos during week training with first team, whether he is ready to return for Everton Ange didn't comment and he wasn't asked in press conference !

Ange confirmed Phillips was available

 

[Richard Arlison]

Johnson and Lo Celso are available tomorrow.

Wonder if maybe both start as well.

I'd be really tempted to do this:

1

Vicario

2

Porro

3

Romero

4

Davies

5

Royal

6

GLC

7

Sarr

8

Deki

9

Johnson

10

Richy

11

Son

GLC as the 6 to help us with buildup

 

[Notabadsquad]

Toucher

Presumably that could lead to allegations of harassment.

Oh wait....

No chance that team. I certainly hope Lo Celso doesn't start.

We need to be more robust.

Hjojberg or Skipp in place of the far from ubiquitous Lo Celso.

Team news | Spurs vs Everton | Lo Celso and Johnson update, duo suspended

Ange Postecoglou has confirmed that Brennan Johnson and Giovani Lo Celso are both available for our Premier League clash with Everton.

www.tottenhamhotspur.com

James Maddison, Ivan Perisic, Ryan Sessegnon, Manor Solomon, Rodrigo Bentancur, Ashley Phillips and Micky van de Ven are long-term absentees and remain out of action.


Club statement saying Phillips is NOT available atm. Have you seen any statement saying something different today ?

EDIT :

Bizzarre ! Journo clearly thinks he's been told Phillips IS available !

This Everton team are one of the best pressing units in the prem.

They are physical for sure and Hojberg defending set pieces might sway me towards him but in terms fo playing through the press PEH at the 6 kills us. And he's actually not great at tracking players or even winning the ball in deeper situations. He's much better winning the ball further forward in the press.

GLC will win us fouls against Everton's press and help us play through it. I'd take that trade-off for the set pieces question.

Definitely. They are a standard Dyche everyone over 6 foot team and they’ll kick lumps out of us. Lo Celso wouldnt be a good choice to start at all.

Although that does also make a lot of sense too!

Will probably be getting in the pub about 11-45. Knew about the book signing. You going straight in the ground then?

 

[FOK]

Gio is fit according to Ange.

That’s a positive

 

[Jenny Talia]

Dyche sounds incredibly positive about this game. I hope he is bluffing.

 

[Richard Arlison]

Ange saying Skipp can and will play 6 might be an indicator of our lineup.

 

[Nutter-Naylor]

Yes mate. I am on my local train service and it is useless.

 

[Belgrano]

His best position so good to see Ange considering him there. I thought he looked a bit more like his pre injury self second half vs Forest.
