Tottenham Vs Fulham Saturday 3rd September 15:00

[SpursAllTheWay]

So glad Richi is getting a start. Surprised it is not Son he is replacing but then again he badly needs a goal to get some of his confidence back.. this could be that game...

Kulu has arguably been the best of our forwards this season.. maybe himand Richi.. so him getting a bit if a rest is also important.

Shame that Deki got dropped instead of Son...

Lenglet will have to play very well to take Davies’ place, let’s see what he can do. This must be the first league game in a while where Ben hasn’t played.

 

[FOK]

Happy Richy is starting but don't like Kulu on the bench.

Mr Royale,

One successful cross

That’s all I‘m asking for

 

[Murphy]

Conte says almost every week that he is not ready and needs time to adapt. That he is a player the club signed for the future. Do people just not listen to him?

Then why did we buy him. And spend £20 odd million?

 

[Zest]

Fresh team anyway, Lenglet, Sessegnon, Richarlison, Bentancur all with rested legs, resting Davies, Perisic, Bissouma (recovering still IMO), Kulusevski.

Hope it shows, think Romero and Lenglet can dramatically shift the perceptions of need, or lacking, most fans have in the team. Enhance our fluidity hugely once settled together.

spence Can’t even make the bench

shocking! At least offers something different plus his use playing Fulham. Conte can’t get enough of the cloggers. How does royal keep his place. Sure Doherty must be fully fit so needs minutes? Don’t under stand the thinking especially with sess on the other side who really needs to step up. Otherwise our wide areas are gonna be rank!

 

[Darnswim]

We spent £13M. And we bought him to integrate him slowly. That's why we didn't sell neither Emerson nor Doc.

Marseille at home is probably a more difficult game than Fulham, I'd imagine Kulu comes back in and Sonny maybe gets rested then. I also think Conte knows the type of character that Sonny is and is hoping to play him back into form before he sits him out. Think mentally Son would get hit hard by getting 'dropped'.

 

[Stlducks]

RWB is the only position we need to rotate more but everything else looks good.

 

[StripiestPilot]

Then why did we buy him. And spend £20 odd million?

For…the future? As Conte said? If we hadn’t bought him then someone else might have.

I’m more surprised that Doherty can’t get a start than Spence.

See it as rotated, not dropped.

You never see the word dropped applied to KDB for example...

I think it's with an eye on midweek (same with Davies) ...Don't have a problem with it... Today's the day to do it.

Just enough rotation, but still enough quality... That's what we all want, right?

 

[Darnswim]

Yeah poor choice of words on my side there. Still, I would've liked Richarlison to start instead of Son, not Kulusevski.

 

[Carl Johnson]

Don't worry, you're still bottom of the barrel curl, but don't worry, Phillywilly is keeping you good company

I also remember there was one racist, mentally challenged, BNP supporting old fart.

That old fucker is definitely the worst and the lowest kind to ever grace this forum.

 

[Stov]

Son might actually be dating Contes daughter.

Kulu has arguably been the best of our forwards this season.. maybe himand Richi.. so him getting a bit if a rest is also important.

At Everton over his whole time there he played on the right just three times.

I am not saying he won't play well there but it's his least used position. He's far better on the left of central, but for some reason Conte does not appear to have the kahooners to drop Son.

 

[Zest]

We spent £13M. And we bought him to integrate him slowly. That's why we didn't sell neither Emerson nor Doc.

Suspect scouts, maybe Levy, thought he’d be first team ready, but there’s first team ready and Conte first team ready = utterly meticulous on defence patterns/drills.

Once he shows consistency of near Emerson defending, he’ll oust him, hope it’s near term and Ego restraint from Conte, but I 100% trust Conte knowing what he’s seeing in training, rather than our highlight reel perceptions.

There wasn’t City, Utd, Pool, Chelsea, Barca types after him, so we know he is/was a tier2 young talent from Champo.

Why drop Kulu and not Son? Wrong message
