A few of our players have kicked on in their second season, in the past
If Sissoko and Jansen could do the same that would help the squad out immensely
We live in hope...

No, certainly not for a game in these circumstances. If he's not 100% then why risk fucking him up more seriously for Newcastle, first game of the season?

Glad to see Bus Conductor continuing his scattergun approach to scapegoats since the departure of Kyle Walker... ;-)
Love you SC, never change. COYS!

Whoever talksport have at St James Park jus said that having seen the team sheets he expects Spurs to line up as
Lloris
Dier. Toby. Verts. Davies
KWP. Sissoko. Dembele. Erikksen
Alli. Kane
Gets me disproportionately annoyed-he is PAID to know about football

I doubt Poch has changed his opinion on KWP in the course of a week. I suspect he knew he was ready when he made that comment, but was probably trying to put a bit of pressure on Levy to get his facking cheque book out.

No wonder sky are losing customers. Awful coverage of the first game of the day so far.

The chickens could really come home to roost today with that line up, not signing a right back and being that short up front that sissoko is playing could be a major fuck up on our part!!

Pochettino clearly would rather give him minutes at the end of the game rather than start him. What if he starts and injuries or a sending off enforces other changes and he ends up having to play more than he's ready for and is unavailable for Chelsea next weekend?

A back up striker is never really going to "kick on" though are they?
There's rarely been a striker in history worth a wank that's impressed the world as "back up" from the bench is there? Strikers, more than anyone need continuity and rhythm.
I think it's crazy expecting your bench striker to provide what your uber first choice does. Have to be realistic, we are not going to have Kane in the team and another Kane on the bench.

Anyone thinks that could be some kind of 5 at the back?
Like this:
-------------------------Lloris----------------------
--------Toby---------Dier----------Verts----------
--KWP--------------Dembele-------------Davies--
---------Sissoko--------------Eriksen--------------
--------------Kane----------Dele--------------------
I know Moussa is not a holding mid but with the right movement could work.
