too defencive and our central midfield would be too slow with Huddlestone and Corluka playing there.

Looks like the lineup that redknapp was working with in training on spurs tv. So by that reckoning bentley will start on the left. As redkanpp was spending time on lennon's crosses from the right and the type of runs d bizzle and pav needed to make.

I love the look of that!

Would like to see Gunter given a few matches soon but we are really well stocked up in the RB position.

Well its good to have lennon back in the team and zokora has been rightly put on the bench IMO.. It certainly looks like Harry is not a big fan of Hutton he doesnt even make the bench.. Overall the team looks quite balanced and one which we can hopefully get another win with. COYS!!

Quality line-up. I'll be very disappointed if it isn't us on the front foot from the first minute. Good to see Bale and Zokora have been dropped. What has happened with Hutton? Is he injured again, or what?

Good team. Though I would of prefered Corluka at LB and maybe Gunter/Hutton at RB. But still, should do the job :-D

Decent team - near full strengh.


Really need a convincing win today, because lets be honest, we were poor last week, and have rode our luck since Harry's taken over.

I think Pavlyuchenko's been really improving and would love to see him boss the line today.

Fingers crossed for a win and a commanding clean sheet from Tottenham's No. 1.

i wished the same team but with Gareth Bale ..

good team selection apart from Ekotto, when we will win, people will say 'we didn't win a league game with him' .. they don't know he didn't get enough chances with best Spurs XI.

That Robinson interview brought a smile to my face. Really hope he has a great reception today, he deserves it.

With Modric missing its time for the other midfielders to step up and create things. I think this could be another good day at the Lane when we pulverise the opposition by a 2, 3 or 4 goal margin. They are capable of it; but it's down to the middle of the park and if they play like they did last week, then I'll be sorely disappointed again. Come on boys!

Yup, can't complain except I'd not have picked BAE either. Hopefully Bale can come on as a sub, we win the game, and the curse is lifted!

I hope Spurs can win a ball in the midfield with this kind of line up. With the Jenas disappearing act going on and off it will put a big hardship on the centre of the pitch,... ie THudd

We'll see and I hope to be wrong -- COYFS!!! :clap:
