A solid win here and il truly start to believe we COULD achieve more than 'challenging for 4th'
3 goals spread across the team from open play with a vlean sheet would be awesome for our gd too!!!

Hoping for 0-3 to spurs

Kane
Eriksen
Lamela
 

L-man

Like the team. Son should be confident after midweek. Dembele needs to boss the middle.

Walker must be carrying some sort of knock or fitness issue. He has been omitted from the squad again.

Have I missed something about Walker, is he injured?

Think its more that he only wants one full back on the bench. Vertonghen is the only cover for Rose, whereas both Alderweireld and Dier can cover for Trippier if needs be

Thats a good team. Rewarding Son for his performance and goal in midweek. He still has not convinced me yet but he has not had a run in the team. Maybe this is the start. COYS

I, personally, would have played Walker for this game, just to keep Zaha honest. Tripp has a chance to show he has enough positional sense and grit to make up for his lack of pace.

His attacking play, we know, will be good.

For me Lamela was the obvious to be replaced by Son. They play a similar role, and Lamela has looked a bit leggy. Even if you disagree though there's room to admit it's a judgement call. Why do you think it's a no brainer that Alli should be dropped before Lamela?
