Need to balance winning as losing would be a disaster to resting players for Saturday. Should have learnt from past seasons that playing a bunch of strangers does not work and need a core from those that play regularily. With Dele and Verts banned from CL they should play. Vorm will play as will Llorente but second guessing Poch's team apart from that is not easy?

If it's a stamina issue I don't see why he can't have 15 minutes like he did last year against Gillingham.
I can only think if GKN is fit Poch wants him to play and it's safer to have a first teamer on the bench instead of a kid, so no room for Edwards.
He's 19 in a few months...
He debuted for us at 17 years old and has made zero progress for the first team since.
He's obviously had his injury problems but it'll get to the point, like a Jaden Sancho where he will decide he wants football. Competitive football.
Possibly. Also GKN is on bigger wages and was bought for first team squad, if he's shit and not favoured then he needs to be showcased to be moved on??
Another guess from me but I get the sense that Edwards is being "managed", leaving him out of selections when perhaps he might have thought he was a shoe-in??? Trying to get him to work hard for his place, fight for it, no attitudes of "I'm talk of the town Marcus Edwards, I will walk into any team" (not that Edwards has been heard saying). Absolutely nothing to back this up other than him not being selected in match day squads where other academy players have been.
Cup games are exactly what we need at Wembley.
In the league, teams are coming to get a point, packing out the defence and trying not to lose. Dortmund came to attack, and we countered that and won. Nearly all the premier league teams will do the opposite.
Wembley isn't the problem, it's how the opposition is setting up. Swansea were a prime example of that.

Whats the beer facilities like in Wembley?

That's really a butchering of what he said.
He said he wants to win every game, but that is what Tottenham is to be about. Going out there with the intention to winning every game, and every competition. But he wants to win the PL or CL to cement Tottenham as one of the biggest clubs. He won't say no to a EFL or FA cup. But it is not his goal so to speak
Edwards is starting mate
Cheers fella! I'm as blind as a bat!
Only beer available is in Club Wembley. No beer available in levels 1 or 5. Can't comment on the offering in CW never been in there.
Or is that just European games?
Man, just stop posting for a second. He is 18 and 5 ft 5. And after all, Barnsley are still a CS side.
I guess the comment from Poch is a bit misunderstood, he needs to put on some weight and muscles. But I still doubt that he will make it in the Premier League, I see him in Spain. There are only a few attacking mids of his size who were somewhat successful in England. Stephane Sessegnon, for example.
How much difference does half an inch make?
He's about the same height as the likes of Verrati, Xavi, Zola, Maradona, Cazorla, Lennon, Wright-Phillips etc. - it's nothing to do with his strength.
Balance > Strength.
You'll never know how they perform unless you try them. A 15 minute cameo from him tomorrow would have done zero harm.
Fuck off, mate. You talk so much shit when in reality you have zero idea of what the fuck is going on
Have you ever heard of core strength lad
Ha ha. Totti in a nutshell.
