Both Eriksen and Alli HAVE to be dropped surely. It sends out the completely wrong message if they play.

“Hey you can play like utter garbage for 3 games in a row but don’t worry as you will never be out of the team”

Yet Sonny continues to score important goals and can’t get in. Lamela and Son over Eriksen and Alli all day long.

its not gonna get any easier.

Watford have shown character in the last couple of matches...

And we really need a win badly....

For me it's gotta be...

Lloris, Dier, Sanchez, Verts, Tripps, Davis, Winks, Eriksen, Son, Sissoko, Kane

Not sure Lamela is ready to start yet... And I actually felt we did better with Sissoko in the team. He work hard in midfield.

We need to score early... It's been so tough coming back from a goal or 2 down. Our defence has been very leaky of late... Think we really miss Wanyama.

COYS!

Agree with that eleven 100%. Would have liked to drop Dier as well but with Wanyama injured I guess we'll have to play him. Eriksen and Alli have been awful latley and definitely deserve to be dropped. They have only got picked because of who they are lately and unfortunately I feel they will on Saturday too.

Will not be happy if I see both Eriksen and Alli starting at all. One of them maybe if Lamela is deemed not ready to start for whatever reason but no way both should start. Same goes for Sissoko but I obviously don't expect a great deal from him so I'm less annoyed regarding him but we can't afford to have passengers at the moment. We need to have players who are gonna stand up and be counted and who are going to be productive in their play.

This but Llorente instead of Kane. Sorry but the guy needs a rest or we’re going to run him into the ground again. We bought Llorente for a reason play him

For me it’s eriksen that needs to be dropped even if alli isn’t at 100% he’s always giving 100% or showing the ability to trust in his own talent doesn’t hide

Eriksen does

Don't think Lamela is ready for that. Don't want him injuried again after all this time out. It's very easy to pick up muscle injuries if you don't nurse him back right.

Just gotta hope being subbed off and seeing a player who's been out with a serious double hip operation outperform you in every possible way in a mere 90 seconds is the splash of cold water Erisken needs

Might as well play a cardboard cutout as Llorente. Give someone else a chance.

Yeah I get what you're saying. A case could be made for both though I guess. Alli may look like he gives a lot more but he also probably loses the ball a lot more too. To be honest if I could vote for the thing that annoys me about either one of their recent shortcomings it's probably Alli's lack of ball retention.

Guys, I'm as big a Lamela fan as there is, but there's no way he's fit to start yet.

Dele needs 'resting' big time.

I just cannot vouch for Llorente at all at the moment. Really doesn't look like someone who's gonna hit the back of the net.
