Team v Juventus

[thinktank]

Trippier for Aurier
Dier for Waynama
Dele for Lucas

Would you have chosen Tripps at RB if Aurier wasn't suspended?

Why do you think Dier would be a better partner for Mioose in this game?

Why do you think Dele would be a better fit in the middle than Lucas?

What do you think would go wrong with Lucas there?

 

[nightgoat]

If it were up to me

Lloris

Trippier
Sanchez
Vertonghen
Rose

Dier
Dembele

Moura
Eriksen
Son

Kane

But we all know:-
1. Alli is undroppable
2. Poch will come up with some WTF selection like Lamela instead of Son, or Sissoko instead of Dembele

Like that wtf selection that worked in the first leg you mean?

 

[Sandros Shiny Head]

Lamela was the right choice in the away leg but Son has to start at home, it's perfect for him. Also absolutely no way should Rose be playing this game, he's miles off Davies atm

 

[dondo]

Fuck, forgot about serge. Bollocks.

Don't care who's favoured tbh, that's what I'd play.

Stop coming at me with what poch's likely to do...I don't care.

Gonna have to be Tripps at RB though...balls. Not good in this game.

I'd be tempted to stick Dier next to Verts and put Sanchez at RB. Serge will be a miss in this one.

Because aurier had such a good game in the 1st leg

Poch still got that starting 11 wrong, mate.

And we were lucky Juve sat off us and tried to contain us and stopped attacking when they went 2 up tbf. That allowed us to get our game going, and they were never able to regain their impetus.

Yes
He’s better
He’s better in that position
We have better in that position to use

Who would you prefer up against Costa, Einstein?

 

[thinktank]

Yes
He’s better
He’s better in that position
We have better in that position to use

Thanks for your responses. Nice chat.

All reasonable point but the 2nd leg vs juventus is not the time for experimenting with new personal in new positions

 

[Cornpattbuck]

Fookin huge game. Hoping we throw the kitchen sink at them, whoever is on the pitch. Plenty of options and we should, fingers crossed, have plenty in the tank.

Trippier

Where did poch put Lucas when he came on today?

Where was he most effective in the FA cup game which promoted Poch to bring him on today and put him in that position specifically?

You should pay more attention.

 

[thinktank]

Is there anyone else who fancies Trippier against costa and isn't concerned at all?

I'm finding the level of apparent confidence quite odd, I must say.

Behave you lunatic. You should pay more attention that your stupid team selections never come to fruition (thank heavens)and for good fucking reason, our manager has more than 5 brain cells

Thanks for engaging with, and refuting, all the points I've made.

I admire how thoroughly you think about the game.

Some people just resort to Ad hominems when they don't know what they're talking about.

You...you're different.

I think moura could have a big part to play in this. His pace running with the ball i think would really hurt them as they look to get a goal.
I think lamela's attitude is a must in a massive game like this. He also keeps the ball moving well.
You would also think that son is muat for his goal return.

Very tough call. I would be brave and go...

----------------------------Lloris------------------------
------------------Sanchez------Jan------------------
--Trippier---Wanyama-Dembele---Rose--
--------------Lamela--------------Eriksen----------
--------------------------Kane--Son--------------------

Ive tried to show the team as id like most to see it set up. Wanyama and dembele sitting with rose and trippier getting forward to provide good crosses into the box.
Eriksen and lamela to flood the central areas and look to control the game and take the sting out of it. Both trying to find those passes in behind juve.
Son and kane to play very closely together working as a pair. Make that juve back 3 have to play very narrowly so not to leave 2 on 2. They will then be in 2 minds as to whether to come out to clise down lamela and eriksen.
Be wasteful and we lose. I fancy juve to find a goal from somewhere so we have to take ours.

This is how the Arsenal Viera,petit, pires, lungberg, Henry team was set up. Worked for them, and the 4 corner box of CB & DM can work. However if they 352 then this tactic could be a disaster, a la when we beat them 5-1 in the semi when playing wing backs against this tactic.

My one thought about the first game was aurier looked like a pub player and I am glad he is suspended for the 2nd leg. Trippier is our next best option no?
As for moura playing in the 10 role from the start in a cl match 16 2nd leg for the 1st time, that’s just moronic

 

[@Bobby__Lucky]

Can't believe how many want Rose to start.

Davies ALL DAY for me.

Lloris

Trippier
Sanchez
Vertonghen
Davies

Dier [could be the most crucial player on the night and could allow a 352 instant change if we have to mirror their tactics. ]
Dembele

Eriksen

Moura
Kane
Son

Kay; thanks for your opinions brah.

Don't think we'll see eye-to-eye, mate, so - without insulting you, because it's just not necessary - we'll leave it there.

Ta.

 

[Mr Pink]

Lloris

Trippier
Sanchez
Vertonghen
Davies

Dier
Dembele

Lamela
Dele
Eriksen

Kane

Subs: Vorm, Rose, Foyth, Wanyama, Moura, Son, Llorente

That will be the team.
