Tottenham Hotspur v Brighton (26th Dec) (12:30pm)

[BAE32]

No Dier starting and a place in the 11 for Sess... Christmas has come, late?

Looking forward to seeing how this looks on the pitch, but under no illusions that this will be easy as Brighton aren't a bad side nowadays.

 

[Darnswim]

A human tragedy, as Gattuso might say.

Sometimes maybe good, sometimes maybe shit.

 

[The Dane]

Lo Celso behind Winks is a crime

Don't even know if Lo Celso is any good. Let's be honest, the guy hasn't set the world alight when he's played. Poch really has made some consistently shit transfer decisions.

 

[RESPECT THE COCK]

Mourinho proving to be Poch from the future so far when it comes to team selections.

It's very disappointing.

[magi]

People forget how bed winks and sisoko are together ..
who will carry the ball ?

 

[RESPECT THE COCK]

Doors fan?

When I was younger!

 

[peter merison]

As long as either Sissoko or Winks sits we should win, we simply have better players than them....

 

[FOK]

Winks and Siasoko.......

 

[Billy Bob mate]

Jose really keeping the mood Christmassy with that answer about his Christmas Day!

 

[Clynelish]

Aaron Mooy probably the best midfielder on the pitch today.

 

[imitationleather]

Uh oh. Jose hasn't shaved.

Spurs 0:2 Brighton

From an article in the Guardian way back when we first signed him:

"Ndombele had another problem at Guingamp – a propensity to be slightly overweight – and it was cited among the reasons for the refusal to give him a senior deal. “People told me he could put on weight,” said Philippe Le Maire, who was on the club’s youth staff. “To put it in simple terms – he built his bottom half before the top.”"

Poch warned us that it would take a long time for him to reach the physical standard needed in the PL. He was not wrong about that and Mou has said similar things.



Why would we need to have Tanganga on the bench if Ndombele was fit?

Beats me. Maybe if we get well ahead Jose would like to give Tanganga minutes, to see how he looks?

 

[RESPECT THE COCK]

Brighton have only won 3 games away from home all season. I know they beat us 3-0, but that was more of a reflection on us than it was them. I have seen them since and they are fucking ordinary.

 

[Kekerinho]

So Mourinho said Sissoko is not a CM. But he plays him at CM. :avbshock:

 

[StripiestPilot]

Imagine saying Sissoko that is not a CM but you still play him at CM. :avbshock:

All our midfield options are bad right now. Dier and Ndombele are fat. Winks and Sissoko limited. Wanyama totally irrelevant. Lo Celso not tough enough.

Mou warned us that even though he didn't see him as a CM, Sissoko would have to play there sometimes. We have to find a way to win games any way possible until we can sort out our midfield.

[superstaryid]

Let's hope Gazza keeps what he's learnt from Mr Miagi in the dojo from now on.

2-1 Spurs.

Lol. Lo Celso not tough enough? Who said that? His 10 minutes cameo? How is Lo Celso supposed to show what he can do if he never plays? Ndombele fat? He plays 100x times better as he is now than Sissoko and Dier combined.

 

[Cranston]

I just don’t get it. As soon as he came on against Chelsea we started to play something resembling football.
