Tottenham vs Burnley: Revenge of the Spurs?

[Jenny Talia]

You can get 5/1 for the draw ... would a little flutter be wrong?

All I see is dippers and woolwich on nbcsp at 10.
Am I missing something? What channel are we on??

You have to have that new Gold package to watch it. I'm relying on a stream today.

 

[Totti]

Please to god can we have KWP start today?

Thanks.

Wembley is going to smell a bit Northern after the Challenge Cup yesterday. Hope it's had a good clean overnight. I have a sensitive immune system.

Winning today. Son needs to start. Hope Davinson does as well.

 

[Totti]

What I'd start;

Lloris
Sanchez - Alderweireld - Vertonghen
Walker-Peters - Dier - Dembele - Davies
Alli - Eriksen
Kane
​

What I think Poch will go with:

Lloris
Trippier - Alderweireld - Vertonghen - Davies
Wanyama - Dembele
Eriksen - Alli - Son
Kane​

Sanchez starting would certainly be a message from Poch. Not sure what that message is, though.

I think it's more likely he starts on the bench, we start in a 4-2-3-1 and then he comes in if we switch to a back 3.

Sanchez on bench-No Wimmer think he is going!

 

[AussieYiddo]

What position is Oakley Boothe? Where is Wanyama? Who is missing so that we have to put Oakley Boothe on the bench (not a knock to the kid, just surprised he is in there)?

OAKLEY BOOTHE

Reports about Oakley-Boothe is that he has been really impressing, probably at the Onomah stage, maybe 5 mins if we are well ahead.

Oh wow...

It says alot when Poch is putting 17 year olds on the bench

 

[Thin Lilywhite Duke]

Well, Wanyama clearly isn't fit to play (wish we'd not played him last week, considering he didn't look match fit then either) and it would be too early to start Sanchez, so I guess we don't really have much of an option other than playing a back four.

Waynama looked unfit against Chelsea maybe he needs some work.

Oakley-Boothe is a CM (number 6 type) with good strength and speed, more like Onomah and Dembele in style than Winks.

 

[hiatus]

Wanyama not even on the bench just makes me mad about the Chelsea match all over again.

Irrational.

Destroy Burnley, please.

Cheers. Agreed that Wanyama looked off his game against Chelsea, but I was expecting him to be on the bench at least. Even put out a tweet today saying 'It's gameday' or something to that extent.

 

[Gatsby]

It'll be Eriksen dropping deeper to accompany Dembele, then Dele and Son off Kane.

Unless Dier is playing CDM and we're 4-2-3-1.

I was thinking the same thing, it just makes starting him last week when not fit seem an even stranger decision than before ochfacepalm:

Surprising from Poch - against Chelsea Trippier and Wanyama were both clearly not fit and the risk didn't pay off
