[mawspurs]

Gary Neville has called on Spurs to give up trying to get Roberto Soldado and Emmanuel Adebayor playing alongside each other.

of the 3 the only one who has the sense to get himself into regular shooting positions is Kane...no idea if thats instinctive or whether the other two have been told to do something different but its pretty plain to see, IMO.

Let's be fair I can't remember many games of them actually starting together. Southampton last year saw Soldado assist Ade and Villa Ade should of scored from a Soldado pass.

There is a massive anti spurs agenda at the moment and anything Poch does he will be questioned for. Kane is playing really well in the lesser games building up confidence and I think he will be ready to replace Ade soon but the media are talking as if Poch hasn't handled him well enough.

I wouldn't be surprised if he does start in the next league game with Soldado who is doing some nice link up play if not threatening the goal enough.

The poor link up play between Ade and Soldado is more down to Ade, as we saw yet again in the Villa game.

Soldado, Lamella and Chadli behind Kane.

Chadli and Kane are nailed on for me as they are regular scorers. The other two will come good if they get the games, I'm sure of it. We just need more patience.

Behind them? anyone's guess.... I'm only sure of Mason and Lloris at the moment.

Some of the fans perhaps?

& what to do with Eriksen? Hard to drop him! But yeah, I would, at least for a while.

When Tim first came in he gave them a run of half a dozen games together. Ade flourished; Soldado looked happier than playing up top on his own and got quite a few scoring opportunities, just couldn't put them away, which ultimately was what cost him his place.

I agree with Neville though that Harry is a better partner for either.

Drop Lamela; he hasn't done anything worthwhile and seems to be turning into an Argentinian Bentley with his drag backs and rolling his foot over the ball all without an end product, and he's scored the obligatory sensational goal (just like Bentley against Scum) which might be the only thing he's remembered for.

Whichever one starts will more than likely be subbed for the other after about 70min.

Problem with Chadli is he is getting into positions to score goals and does - but doesn't do much else... He isn't creative, and often takes wrong options - but he is scoring. But I think if we give Kane and Soldado a go, we could have Erikson and Lamela, and we wont miss Chadli.
This may seem stupid, but until Walker gets back - why not try Lennon there... Naughton was absolutely awful. Lennon couldn't be any worse.. or could he :-/

 

[Thfc28]

Kane & Bobby strike the better balance overall. Can't believe saying this but Lennon & Townsend should start offerring good balance when we don't have the ball.

As rest of players are so similar and when we dont have the ball ther all luxuries on the field.Yes few players are getting stuck in dont get me wrong. Least they bring some pace & speed up our attacks perhaps wishful thinking

 

[Main Man]

Such comments are based purely on their respective goalscoring records.

If Ade had finished as expected when clean through from Soldado's assist on Sunday, would Neville be saying this now?

No, he would be asking why they haven't played together more often then bring up highlights of the Southampton away game last season.

Really lazy journalism, especially for you Gary.
