Team v. Man United

[THFCSPURS19]

Walker??

They could potentially be playing with Depay and/or Di Maria, so I think his pace is necessary. He may not be fit though. I wouldn't have a problem with Trippier starting either TBH.

His pace doesn't count for anything if it hasn't got a brain directing it.

Lloris
Toby Dier Vertonghen
Trippier-----------------------Rose
Bentaleb Ali
Lamela----------Eriksen
Kane​

Loving the fantasy formations.

 

[Spurger King]

I'm expecting Pochettino to really push the boat out and try something different for a change, so...

Vorm
Walker__Dier__Verts__Rose
Mason__Bentaleb
Lamela__Eriksen__Chadli
Kane​

Oh don't start, spurgz, you miserable xxxx.

If Lamela isn't played behind Kane this season, I'll revolt. I'm not sure how I'd go about it, but I'd work it out.

It's an option we need to be able to use, but it will depend on us getting in a player who can play LWf/RWf. We need a quick, strong, dynamic player that can play across the 3; that will open up our options for the front 4.

 

[willy white wonka]

If we play like we did in the 2nd half at Old Troutford then we've got a chance, Bentaleb could be key in that respect as DM. Just hope Poch shows them more respect in the first 45 than last time. As for the starting 11 who knows? It's not too late to bring in players who could still start in that game, if only for 60-70 minutes.

as long as eriksen isnt played as our #10 ill be happy.

 

[Blake Griffin]

lamela, dembele and pritchard behind kane. those three will work harder and at a higher intensity than eriksen and chadli, which is what you need in these kind of games.

 

[Kingellesar]

Vorm, Tripper, Dier, Fazio, Davies, Stambouli, Alli, Townsend, Dembele, Pritchard, Soldado

Rest our team for the massive game against Stoke, thats how its done at Old Trafford isnt it?

I'd love if it we smacked them after them spending another £100m or so and throwing money about like they you know actually have it to throw about and aren't in massive debt.

 

[IGSpur]

At the moment:

Lloris (hopefully)
Walker (pace)- Alderweireld- Vertonghen- Rose
Veljkovic (yeah, that's right @IGSpur )- Bentaleb
Lamela- Dembele- Eriksen
Kane

Subs: Vorm, Dier, Mason, Alli, Townsend, Pritchard, Chadli
​

Part of me wants to put up a guess line-up including potential signings, but I did that last year, and I think I jinxed it as it included Musacchio, Schneiderlin and Remy/Welbeck...

I will choose to ignore the sarcasm as say great decision lol.

I agre with your team though replacing MV. If Mason isn't fit as I've seen some suggest reckon Dembele central, then any of Pritchard or Chadli in 3 behind.

I'm not actually joking though. We need a DM to play IMO.

 

[npearl4spurs]

With United's buys, how does Pochettino not go 4-3-3 here? We know he won't, but Old Trafford screams for:

Lloris
Trippier Alderweireld Vertonghen Rose
Dembele Mason Bentaleb
Lamela Kane Eriksen
Bring Chadli, Pritchard, and maybe Townsend/new signing off the bench
​

Knowing him, however, he'll certainly go with

Lloris
Walker Alderweireld Vertonghen Rose
Mason Bentaleb
Lamela Eriksen Chadli
Kane
​

Only if Walker is not fit and/or terrible in pre-season will Trippier start ahead of him, I think

 

[DEFchenkOE]

Lloris
Trippier Alderweireld Vertonghen Rose
Alli Bentaleb Mason
Pritchard Kane Oduwa​

Baffle them with youth

[ClintEastwould]

Lloris
Tripper Alderwerield Vertonghen Rose
Veljkovic
Mason Bentaleb
Lamela Kane Chadli​

 

[Gbspurs]

I have a sneaking suspicion that we are going to get seriously butt raped. Still only first game of the season.

 

[Lou3000]

The number of people putting Ali in the first team lineup is baffling. League One to Old Trafford?

I'd really love to see a 4-3-3 against Man U With a midfield of Bentaleb - Dembele - Mason, but it'll be the same 4-2-3-1 we finished last season with Alderweireld at CB
