Norwich Vs Tottenham: Match Thread

Today's team - Lloris; Naughton, Dawson, Vertonghen, Rose; Capoue, Bentaleb, Paulinho; Lennon, Adebayor, Dembele. #COYS

Almost the same team that beat Newcastle. Shame Kaboul isn't starting. I almost hope he's injured rather than Sherwood preferring Dawson over him. Eriksen benched again.

Forget about seeing Lamela this season or possibly ever again

You make me laugh

 

[Oshi]

I really hope Lennon ups his level for this game, he has been pretty substandard in the 'Sherwood era'.

 

[RButch]

I'm sorry, but that is a horribly unbalanced team. Just hope Dembele gets us width on the left.

Makes you wonder what needs to happen before Lennon gets dropped. Been playing horribly and apparently even carrying a slight injury as he was left out of our EL team.

Is Kaboul broken again? :dead:

 

[THFCSPURS19]

Tim did specifically say Kaboul was struggling in the Spurs TV pre-Dnipro interview but I expected Walker to be fit

 

[kaz Hirai]

Would've been ultra confident with kaboul but Dawson at the back means we will at least concede 1 goal today from him diving in and completely missing the ball leaving Vertonghen exposed.

Naughton and Dawson are very poor replacements for Walker and Kaboul. Automatically makes that back line look fragile.

 

[ardiles&villa]

Walker was in club 195 last night...

 

[Mr Pink]

not as confident now after seeing that team news....

two players in Walker and Kaboul would off added much freshness to the back line - not to mention quality.

Think we'll feel the affects of Thursday night.

 

[Spurger King]

I'm sorry, but that is a horridly unbalanced team. Just hope Dembele gets us width on the left.

No need to apologise. You didn't pick it.

Good starting XI

 

[TH1239]

Lennon over Eriksen again? Why? Horrible decision, especially when Eriksen don't start against Dnipro.

 

[0-Tibsy-0]

There are rumours on Twitter that Walker was spotted clubbing in the early hours...he may have been allowed as he had a knock and wasnt needed...Lets hope it's that and that he was dropped for being out the night before a a game....

 

[marvel]

Walker and Kaboul both knocks, confirmed on official twitter

Walker (hip) and Kaboul (calf) carrying knocks, miss out with Sigurdsson (thigh). Chiriches, Lamela, Sandro also out.

 

[YidNick]

How long has it been since Walker's missed a PL game for us? It's been quite awhile, hasn't it?

 

[WiganSpur]

We desperately need a new CB in the summer.

Just can't rely on Kaboul's fitness these days.
