i wouldn't play a 50% match sharp dawson over bassong who has done a good job when called upon recently.

Alongside Kaboul I would. I'm hoping King can be fit then there's no need for either of them.

 

[Mr Pink]

Who for?

King :grin:

 

[lukespurs7]

Is Parker actually going to be fit?-source?

 

[Blake Griffin]

he was close to making the west brom game, so by that i figure he should be ok for everton ...

I think the most important thing for this game is Lennon starting - their best player by a mile is Baines, so its important to keep him occupied and pinned back. Lennon is our best hope of doing that.

Also, they will try and pack the midfield so the more width we have the better otherwise it will become very congested and Modric and Rafa may struggle to operate near their best.

Fully agree with this, was saying the same the other day. VDV on the right is a big no no for me here, Baines would be a serious threat.

Ledley has torn his hamstring according to the Daily Mail, out 8 weeks.......shit news if true.

 

[Mr Pink]

:bang:

Yep....

[Mr Pink]

This couldn't of come at a worse time IMO, with all those big away games...which I'm sure Harry was protecting him for.

He'll not be back to March probably.

 

[Super Tottenham]

Have to buy a CB now.

 

[Kendall]

We have 3 fit cbs. I don't think we need to buy.

 

[Mullers]

We also have Corluka that can slot in, we are supposed to have a squad that has strength and depth, so why the widespread panic?

If Lennon is not ready to start then it may not be a bad idea to put Pienaar there, with Rafa behind Ade. Can't see Harry doing it though.

 

[Bus-Conductor]

Walker----Kaboul---Bassong---Ekotto

---Pienaar/Livermore----Parker----Modric

--VDV-------Adebayor------Bale

I am pretty sure Harry said he would never play Charlie at cb again. And for good reason, too.

I think Corluka has to be a lost cause. He seems to have 'done a Hutton' and vanished.

Everyone is picking Parker but that seems optimistic from what I have read. Unfortunately Livermore is our only option unless Kaboul plays there. I just hope we don't go for the suicide tactic of Luka and Niko together in CM .when is Hudd fit ? Can we recall Jenas ?

 

[guy]

Jenas is broken, Achilles gone.

Parker should be fit according to itk

Parker should be fit. Lennon should be used as impact sub IMO. Bale switching wings will occupy Baines.
This, again, is a massive game. We can go joint 2nd in the league with 20 games played. #unbelievableJeff
