Colchester Vs Tottenham: FA Cup Match Thread

[Ghost Hardware]

We should batter them with that line up. Surprised Son isn't starting.

 

[thebenjamin]

At least we haven't got a game on Tuesd-

Oh.

 

[EnfieldYiddo]

Don't get the line-up at all.

Kane, Dier and to an extent Eriksen, had to be rested.

Why are we not giving WImmer experience next to Toby

Why not start for Onomah? This was a perfect game for him to showcase his talents.

So many questions... I fear in the end Poch's lack of squad management will cost us (not being a pessimist for the sake of it)

 

[Jamesbashspur]

Why is Harry playing and son gets dropped after playing well last few games?

 

[13VanDerBale13]

kane starting? really? u dont start him vs leicester but you start him vs colchester ... weird

 

[EnfieldYiddo]

If people don't think we need a back up striker in for the rest of the season that team sheet proves it

It just says to me Poch's main weakness remains, which is his squad management.

You're telling me Chadli or Son can do a job vs Leicester up top but can't do it vs a football league side?

Ludicrous.

Why can't we get a striker in so we don't rely on players just doing a job! We are title contenders ffs

 

[Ian Kane]

Are we going for double figures ? That team is ridiculous for this game.

 

[Phomesy]

Is Walker injured? Or has Trippier gone ahead of him? Last start was Leicester in the Cup wasn't it?

 

[BringBack_leGin]

I'd suggest the thinking here is that we win early and convincingly and bring Kane and Erikson off as early as possible.

I'm talking at this very moment.. Poch clearly felt comfortable enough to go without Kane against a much better side, why doesn't he do the same today?

Biggest surprise for me is still Onomah not starting, such an inconsistent message to send to him.

 

[mpickard2087]

Kane and Dier should not be playing.

Dier starting in defence is preferable to Toby. Kane I agree is a strange selection.

 

[Matthew]

that is a ridiculous starting line up, giving the oppo! no need for kane to be in the 18 let alone starting line up.

We dont. Its just poch who wants to play it tht way.chdlican play there. Son can play there. Njie can play there. But poch still plays kane n will play him again on tuesday

 

[Cornpattbuck]

Stop wetting the bed people. FFS!

 

[Riandor]

Maybe the aim is to finish this off early and then sub Kane off.

Shows some respect for the cup and our opponents, who will treat this televised game like a cup final. Plus I hear the pitch is half way decent too.

 

[TEESSIDE1]

The line up shows Poch is taking the cup seriously. Hopefully we'll be out of sight by half time/the hour mark and make some changes. It's a shame there's only Onomah on the bench and no other kids.

 

[yusrisafri]

Onomah shud be playing. And maybe winks. And Kane should never be anywhere near the lineup. Strange by Poch

 

[Hoops]

Bloody hell, we really need to give Kane a rest. Is there any new ITK? im banned from itk forum for saying danny rose is shit

Trying to negate any potential of an extra game
