This has probably fucked Mourinho's game plan.

He'll be crying onto his 6-3-1 white board...

Worst possible time, felt we had a real chance against Man Utd but this makes it much, much harder. Mourinho is so fucking lucky.
Hoping against hope fit for Wednesday but unlikely I would have thought.

I'm sure it won't be anything major, while players aren't the greatest judges of their own injuries he definitely said to the trainer that it was cramp when he came off.

probably a slight strain and hoping he'll be back in contention for Real game.


Interesting to see how we line up now, as this no doubt will have had a last minute effect on Mourinho's preparation too.

They haven't conceded a goal at home this season in the Prem so lets see if we can break that at least.

Horrendous news for us, we look toothless without Kane, Son is going to have to step up big time! I would play front 3 of Eriksen, Dele & Son with Dier & Winks behind!

Man Utd fans will demand they attack, and while Mourinho probably doesn't care I'm sure that they will have to come at us (more so now) and we are still a good counter attacking side with or without Harry.

Son has been looking in good form the last two games. Just hoping he can find one if his unplayable purple patches.

Well it's time for the rest to step up and prove we aren't "the Harry Kane team"
Great opportunity if we win, we really don't have much to lose!

Obviously a big blow to go into this game without our best player, but it's a great opportunity for us to prove we aren't 'The Harry Kane Team'.

I'd go:

Lloris

Toby Sanchez Vertonghen

Aurier Dier Winks Rose

Eriksen Alli

Son
If for whatever reason that isn't working then throw on Trippier and Llorente and just get as much ball into their box as possible.

You watch all the collective opposition fans, media etc make a big song and dance if we lose tomorrow. It'll be Harry Kane team this, Harry Kane team that :rolleyes:

No way he'll play tomorrow or weds. Wouldn't surprise me if they rested him for palace too just to make sure he's back for the scum.

Either that or eventually amputation knowing the injury updates from the club...

I think this will be the team that starts. Maybe dembele for winks. I do however think llorente should start. United are pretty strong at the back and llorentes size and psysicality is probably needed.

Like west ham, they will sit deep in defense and crosses are a good option. Looked light last 15 min against west ham without the big man in the box

Remember the city game last year when Kane was injured? What happened then when everyone thought they'd easily sweep us aside.

Believe.

Pochettino has trolled Mourinho.

I bet José has been preparing for Kane all week.

I reckon Pochettino knew on Sunday that Kane was out of the United game.
