Match Threads Fulham vs Spurs - Match Thread

[yankspurs]

This is exactly the kind of match (and exactly the formation) that suits Trippier. I have no problem at all with him playing today, now Thursday on the other hand...

Will feature the stylings of Trippier and Davies at FB.

Back to a back three, interesting...

Guess that’s why Trippier is there as hoping he get forward as will have more attacking freedom (good to see Rose on left though to give a bit more pace).

Would probably prefer Dele deeper and Eriksen further up but nothing to switching about during the game.

Agree that that's probably the main reason why Trippier is starting.

But I think if we try to play to Llorente's strengths as a target man we're more likely to get joy from Dele being the one who tries to get on the end of the knockdowns, and Eriksen dictating play from deeper.

Delighted that Trips is in with three centre halves.

Dare I say it, given our injury struggles, it’s not a bad looking side that!

89. Goal to Fulham. A misplaced pass from Trippier allows Sessengon to move in on goal and square for Mitrovic to finish. #FFC 1-10 #THFC

FYP

Maybe he's starting because he's currently the best right back in the squad in Poch's opinion?

7-2 SPURS

Llorente - four goals

Fulham have Ryan Babel now? Is that the best they could get?

Happy that we've gone back 3, we should get the best of Trippier now and I expect him to have a great game with Dele and LLorente heading ability. Bench is awful so need to get out in-front early on and finish the game.

Davies will obviously play. Let's wait and see who Poch selects on the right before we moan about (although I'll certainly be with you if you turn out to be right).

Hey Tripps shouldn’t you be getting warmed up, didn’t think you were allowed phones in the dressing room

That's original.

So you don't trust the manager to pick the best team of players who he works with almost every day etc.?

Only joking

If we fall to Ryan fucking Babel then we deserve it!

Maybe Trippier is the best trainer at the club, but his performances in a back four have been questionable at best all season.

In a back 3/5, I'm all for him starting. He is a much better wing-back than full-back.

And it'll be all thanks to you!!

Laugh or call me a **** but this is classic Tottenham banana skin territory

Ranieri hasn't lost against us in his last 11 meetings as manager.

I have a really bad feeling about today. Think we will feel the losses of Kane and Son badly.
