Match Threads Spurs v Barcelona - Match Thread

[oskathegobshite]

Hope Skipp gets a few games this year, liked the look of him pre-season

win lose or draw, I'm incredible proud of the club to have reach this level on a consistent basis. Tonight can only be a posisitive for the club going forward and I cant wait. Think we'll surprise a few out there tonight.

Probably they dont have Trippier on the same pedestal as you

And the pedestal that you put kwp on comes from.....?

 

[kidby33]

Not really, a played Davies ahead of Rose. Davies is going to be slow staring an attack and his crosses 9 times out of 10 goes to the opposition

Meaning front line

 

[yiddopaul]

Why do you think he should not be ahead of Tripps for this? KWP has started in the prem by the way and has played 90 mins in a high profile game and is better in a back four.

So against Barca, you would trust an inexperienced kid? Do we even know that he is that much better than Tripps to warrant him being in the side? With Tripps we know that he will attack and create chances for Kane.

 

[WiganSpur]

It's as good a side he could have put out tbh, pretty happy with it.

 

[maltahotspur]

Lloris is the man. He breeds so much more confidence into our defence. We will be OK, Have fait and BELIEVE.
COYSSSS!!!

Would have loved to have seen deli out there tonight , a match made for him

 

[mil1lion]

Attacking starting lineup, we can really get at this Barca defence. The fullbacks can't get too far forward though. Hopefully a high goalscoring win tonight. COYS

Mate, you have your preference and I have mine. You prefer Tripps I dont and dont have to justify why. Lets agree to have different preferences and leave it at that

 

[Bulletspur]

Well Neymar just scored a hat trick against Red Star, lets hope this doesnt motivate Messi although he probably dont need motivating

Do we want PSV to beat inter

Shit, Davies is playing up top. You mad bastard, Poch

 

[Bulletspur]

Good question. Yes, providing we beat PSV over two legs

[Edit] On reflection we need Inter to lose regardless

KWP has played 9 games for Spurs. Fair play that you like him, I think we all want him to succeed. But there is no way you can conclude he is better than Trippier based on that.

I think sometimes our desire for home grown players to succeed clouds our judgement on them. Imo the jury is out on if he will ever make it at Spurs, or even at the top level at all. Granted he could do with some more chances, but perhaps there is a reason he isn't.

Right lads, I’m switching back over to the grass laying channel. Someone keep me updated on the match.

Personally, Im not bothered either way, this club imo has more pressing issues than whether or not we advance in a competition we have very little chance of winning anyways.

I think it is the desire for pace rather than homegrown that drives people to want KWP over Trips. Let’s hope we are wrong tonight.

 

[JUSTINSIGNAL]

Our full backs scare me but fuck it. I’m just grateful to be competing in matches like this.
