#THFC squad to face Partizan (2/2): ...Veljkovic, Bentaleb, Mason, Paulinho, Eriksen, Lennon, Lamela, Townsend, Kane & Soldado

Hmm 21 players, but we can only name an 18 match day squad so McGee and 2 others don't make the bench. Might have been more sensible to leave one or two nore at home and take a couple of youngsters ?

 

[DaSpurs]

Means Kaboul is most likely to start on the weekend again. I appreciate what the guy's done for us, but with healthy options there is absolutely no reason he should still be starting in the league in his current shape.

 

[Gbspurs]

Would like to see Davies integrated to the weekend squad now really.

 

[Hotspur33]

----Lloris----
Dier-Fazio-Verts-Davies
-Stambo-Bentaleb
Lennon-Paulinho-Chadli
---Kane---

That's my prediction.

 

[DaSpurs]

----Lloris----
Dier-Fazio-Verts-Davies
-Stambo-Bentaleb
Lennon-Paulinho-Chadli
---Kane---

That's my prediction.

Chadli didn't travel, but other than that I'd say you're likely spot on.

Still very much hoping to see Mason featured in this one. I think he'd be better for pinning back the quick passing game of a Balkan side than having two physical players in CM.

----Lloris----
Dier-Fazio-Verts-Davies
-Stambo-Bentaleb
Lennon-Paulinho-Chadli
---Kane---

That's my prediction.

Vorm for Hugo
Naughton for Dier
Andros for Chadli.

 

[M.I.B.]

So, Kaboul gets appointed team captain, then gets left at home?

Top planning.

 

[Larryjanta]

Going to be working until midnight tomorrow so planning in having this on from 6 in the office. Really excited about this, mainly because I assume we'll see Stambo and Fazio

Top planning.

Why, do captains have to play every single game?

Also there are vice captains for a reason...

 

[mark87]

You can't play every single game, plus it's not exactly a must-win game.

IIRC Gary Neville and Vidic were club captains and hardly played

 

[yankspurs]

I'd go with

Vorm
Naughton Fazio Vertonghen Davies
Stambouli Mason
Lennon Paulinho Townsend
Soldado

Bench: Lloris, Veljkovic, Bentaleb, Kane, Eriksen, Lamela, Chiriches

If all goes well: Kane, Veljkovic for Vertonghen, Soldado at 60. Chiriches for Fazio at 75.

Then this weekend

Lloris
Dier Fazio Vertonghen Rose
Capoue Dembele
Lamela Eriksen Chadli
Soldado

Bench: Vorm, Kaboul, Paulinho, Bentaleb, Adebayor, Kane, Lennon

What has Rose done to lose his starting spot?

 

[DaSpurs]

What has Rose done to lose his starting spot?

Agreed. For now, Rose deserves his spot in the league.

 

[CrazyHeart]

That Partizan coach looks totally like Woody Harrelson saying "Noooooo" in that picture!

 

[Strikeb4ck]

Want Naughton playing in the league again, Dier isn't a RB and has been exposed there. Let him play here again at RB and then integrate him back into the CB group.

Soldado
Kane Paulinho Lennon/Townsend
Stambouli Mason
Davies Chiriches Fazio Dier
Vorm



At the weekend:

Adebayor
Chadli Eriksen Lamela
Capoue Dembele
Rose Verts Kaboul Naughton
Lloris

i like both lineups, just think in that case we have the wrong striker matched up with the midfield three.

Top planning.

Think you'll find he was appointed Club Captain. Team Captain is appointed from the eleven selected which would no doubt be Younes if he's in the eleven.
