Team v CSKA

only players not there are lamela and janssen by the looks of it but davies is back.

Davies being back is great news as it means Rose can have a rest.

Will be frustrating if Kane has to play another 80/90 minutes.

Massive game this despite the circumstances.

We are desperate to win at Wembley and stop the hoodoo. Got to win there ASAP.

Couldn't give a single fuck about this game. No injuries - play the kids.

It would be suicidal to go 4-4-2 with that team.

I'm hoping for a strong 11. I would only rest Kane and Walker, Son maybe. Remember that we're playing at home, ok wembley, but fans there are Tottenham fans so we should act like playing at home. And I am probably the only person here who hopes that we get EL. It's a competition that we can win so we should go for it. Especially that we would skip the group stage that is most tiring.

Reckon Gary is better suited to playing as an anchor and moping up any attacks personally.

What makes you think we have a chance of winning the europa? We have been awful in all cup comps recently.

We've been awful because for some stupid reason we don't take the competition seriously!!. If we did we could win it. We would be one of the best teams in the Europa. So why couldn't we win it? After our shameful Champions league campaign we have to go for it. Don't we want to win trophies???
Again, I'm absolutely staggered that some fans want us out Europe. Truly baffling.

We've always taken the competition seriously but we have priorities, last season we were going for the league - the season before we had a fixture like up including a cup final. I think it's a little unrealistic to expect to go all out of the EL, not saying you said that.

Cup comps come down to luck of the draw as well and if we get some favourable draws like we haven't been then there's no reason not to start to take it serious, obviously depending on what round we are in.

Lamela has gone back to Argentina for personal reasons. Something to do with his brother.

I'd like to see a full strength team since I'm flying over for the game, but I think Poch will pick a 50/50 team (50% first team, 50% reserves).....with a couple of kids off the bench if the result is going our way.

 

[DCSPUR]

suspect that Poch would like to come up with a team for this game that is good but does not feature Rose, Walker, Dembele.
If he can do that he will probably play it - on eg:
Hugo
Trippier Dier Verts Wimmer/ Davies
Wanyama Winks
Eriksen Dele Son
Kane

or if he wants to give one of the attackers a break and give MoSi a chance:

Hugo
Trippier Dier Verts Wimmer/ Davies
Wanyama Winks
MoSi Dele Son
Kane

Yeah let's go all out for a trophy we have next to no chance of winning. If we were to take the EL seriously we would have a good chance of winning it. Pochettino has got to somehow get a winning mentality in this squad. You do that by winning trophies. I'm sure after the total embarrassment of our Champions league campaign Pochettino and the players will take this seriously.

Mate, after a season like last season, Poch and our team showed a complete lack of regards for the CL. What makes you think Poch will take the EL seriously?

It's ironic you ask why we would go for a trophy we have no chance of winning well I'll respond with another question... Why the fuck should we go for a trophy we won't even take seriously. Let's not waste our time here or the players energy on pointless games we will just turn up for half heartedly. Our squad isn't deep enough to compete.

I'd rather the FA Cup and PL

 

[southlondonyiddo]

Kane and Toby on the bench please. Give them 30mins 2nd half before the big game Sunday

 

[wrd]

Lloris
Trippier Dier Vert Rose
Winks Wanyama
Sissoko Onomah Nkoudou
Son

 

[Shadydan]

Toby I agree with, I think Kane is now fully match fit so we don't need him to play.

Obviously why go for a trophy we won't take seriously. My point is we should. We should take every competition seriously. We need to get a winning mentality. The next game is all that matters, not the game after. You cannot pick and choose which trophies to really go for because you'll end up with nothing. We should go into every competition to try and compete to win or what really is the point. If our squad isn't deep enough to compete we have to build a squad that can. I believe our squad is big enough to compete in and to try and win the Europa league. Sick and tired of us not giving ourselves the best chance of winning a trophy....any trophy. For a big club our record of winning silverware is utterly depressing...
And some fans want us to lose tomorrow so we don't go into the Europa league. Just cannot get my head around it.
I really hope Pochettino and the players after the shambles of the Champions league take this game and the Europa league serious because they owe us...

If we were to take it seriously then I'd be even more pissed off, I'd argue why the hell didn't we take the CL seriously. Yes we may not have won it but you never know not to mention the clout we would have had had we gone even to the last 16 then it becomes knock out.

Most fans, and put me in that school of thought, do not have much confidence in Poch taking it seriously... Poch has form... Let's not mention last year where we got to the latter stages then hey let's play the kids.

I agree with you if we were to compete properly particularly given there is CL attached to winning the EL but it's difficult to look past going for the league and finishing top four two years in a row which would be a great.

We didnt throw anything, monaco were better than us.

Weve took the europa pretty serious in previous seasons and never got past the quarters... why? Because there are teams that are better than us in the competition.
