Predict the team and bench for first game (A) v. Newcastle

[SpursSince1980]

Wow. Tough call with so many in need of a break after the world cup. It's gonna be a really rough start to the season with all of these away games, but Poch will need to rely on our depth to get a few players some much needed down time. I'd like to think we won't see Kane, Trippier, Alli, Dier, Lloris, etc until the last game of August. Assuming they won't start their preseason until the first week of August.

Vorm

KWP
Sanchez
Verts (he's gonna have to suck it up)
Davies

Eriksen
Wanyama
Grealish or Sissoko (if we don't have Grealish by then)

Lamela
Moura
Martial or Llorente (if we don't have Martial by then)

Lloris

Aurier
Sanchez
Verts
Davies

Dier
Eriksen

Lucas
Dele
Son

Kane

Subs: Vorm, Trippier, Rose, Wanyama, Dembele, Grealish, Lamela

 

[Spurs72]

Lloris
Trips Sanchez Verts Rose
Wanyama Dembele
Erik

Bence would be: Vorm, Dembele, Trippier, Lamela, Llorente, Dier, Rose.

 

[glospur]

I think it will be:

Vorm
Aurier - Sanchez - Vertonghen - Davies
Dier
Sissoko (if fit) - Eriksen
Lucas - Kane - Son

Gazzaniga - KWP - CCV - Amos - Dele - Georgiou - Llorente​

 

[Hakkz]

I think it will be:

Vorm
Aurier - Sanchez - Vertonghen - Davies
Dier
Sissoko (if fit) - Eriksen
Lucas - Kane - Son

Gazzaniga - KWP - CCV - Amos - Dele - Georgiou - Llorente​

That bench though...

 

[glospur]

That bench though...

I actually forgot Lamela, but I doubt he'll be fit anyway. If he is, put him in for Georgiou. But yeah, you're right.

 

[Colonel Dax]

Dier and Sissoko in midfield....depressing.

You're probably closer to the truth with your guess...

Skipp plz

Lloris
Aurier

[Kingellesar]

Vorm, Aurier, Foyth, Sanchez, Davies, Sissoko, Dier, Son, Eriksen, Moura, Llorente
Bench: Lloris, Trippier, Vertonghen, Lamela, Kane, KWP, Alli

 

[buttons]

tough one and clearly much depends on how and when the WC players return and whether we sign anyone!

Assuming DA and HK are back (as per Trix) but no one else, i guess it'll be something like:

Vorm
Aurier - Foyth - Sanchez - Davies
Sissoko - Dele
Son - Eriksen - Moura
Kane
​

Hopefully one of our centre backs and Dier are also fit, fingers crossed!
