Team v Huddersfield

[doctor stefan Freud]

Don't be so sure Utd will beat West Ham. The Solskjaer bubble seems to have burst somewhat.

They should have offered him a contract at the end of the season- there’s always a tendency to drop off when something of value is achieved, even in the short term

 

[Thewobbler]

We have the early kick off and then a full days rest before city play palace. We should put out a near full strength team and then take players off if the result is over before 60 minutes.

 

[Pistols At Dawn]

Gazza
Aurier (KWP) - Sanchez - Verts - Davies
Wanyama - Skipp
Moura - Eriksen - Son
Llorente

 

[Japhet]

Lloris
Aurier
Sanchez
Vertonghen
Davies
Wanyama
Winks
Moura
Eriksen
Son
Llorente

Want to see more of Vic. Would be great to have him back and match fit for the run in.

We only have between 7 to 10 games (all comps) left this season so I hope that we put out our strongest available side for each game from now on.

Anyway it’s easier qualifying for next season’s CL by getting TOP four than winning this season’s CL so we shouldn’t slack off against Huddersfield.

My XI:

Gazzaniga ,
KWP , Foyth, Sanchez, Davies
Wanyama, Skipp
Sissoko, Lucas, Eriksen
Llorente

No point risking Dele .
I would have bench with Dele, Son , Winks , Toby ,Trippier, Rose on bench.

We got to take the risk against Huddersfield at home & keep as many players fresh as possible with 2 back to back away games at Etihad.

Have I missed something?

Seems a fair few have named Gazzaniga in their starting XI. Is Lloris injured?

I think I'd start Llorente in this one. It's probably the best opportunity for him to start of our remaining games, and I think he's earned the chance to play in our new home - certainly more than Jannsen. We should (hopefully) dominate possession so he would provide a focal point for our attacks and a good target for Eriksen and the full backs. I'd have Son buzzing around him for knock downs.

i dont want to see Aurier and Sanchez playing next to each other...neither has the necesssary positional awareness IMO.

He'd thrive on some early balls into the box as well - like the one Willian put in for Alonso the other night. We hardly ever do this and it makes sense with Kane but it's meat and bread to Llorente.

Lloris offers absolutely nothing apart from penalty saves and clean sheets.


Awful goalkeeper.

Don't agree with this at all to be honest. I think this game is incredibly important and the team selection should warrant that. If we want to try and keep star players fresh, do so after we're a few goals up in the game.

There's no way we can risk dropping points here, with Man City being the next league game too. Do everything we can to get the 3 points here to allow for a cushion if we were to lose to City.

who is this Jannsen of whom you speak?

 

[homer hotspur]

I assume Lamela is still injured. His absences have become really annoying, he could make quite a difference to our options

 

[Kiedis]

Rotate the full backs and possibly give Wanyama a run out for Sissoko. All about finding the groove now.

 

[djee]

Unlikely to make many changes other than the enforced ones for Kane and Dele (Can't see Dele making it as they will want to give him time to adjust to the splint through a few training sessions) and perhaps Sanchez for Toby and Davies for Rose to freshen up. I am not convinced he trusts KWP at this level. The stakes are incredibly high and he won't take many risks on this games.

Would be surprised if we didn't go:

Lloris
Trippier, Sanchez, Jan, Davies
Sissoko, Winks
Son, Eriksen, Lucas
Llorente

Wouldn’t we all

 

[SEANSPURS1975]

A huge game. Wouldn’t make many changes...

 

[Tottenhamboy85]

Lloris
KWP Toby Verts Davies
Sissoko Eriksen Wanyama
Lucas Llorente Son​

Subs: Gazzaniga, Sanchez, Foyth, Rose, Winks, Skipp, Parrott​

The official twitter says everyone is still out from last game. Just add Kane to that list. Oh Vinny also but that goes without saying at this point. Dele has a chance to be involved
