Team v West Ham

[TheChosenOne]

I assume he means we are the first match on Saturday (which means losing can "ruin a weekend" )

Aha.. Apologies Univarn, thanks Shiz.

A loss or even a shitty draw anytime will bugger up my week.

Ok with this line up. From the matches I have seen Poch is playing Sanchez in the middle. I note no Trippier on bench but he will be either on bench or playing. Poch is loyal. I know Alli scored but he was awful and greedy last night. He has gone off the boil. Needs taking down a peg or two. I was surprised Dembele played last night. Hopefully he will be fit. Will Davies be fit?

Anybody know when Wanyama will return?

Foyth was a breath of fresh air and last night showed our £30m waste of space how to attack through the midfield. Deserves a place on the bench

Finally No Sissko.

For the umpteenth time, one of the if the not the main objective of this thread is choosing our preferred line up from the players we believe are available, and it is not about second guessing who Poch will or will not pick.

Best thing about this fixture is its a early kick off at 12:30 - which means there is less drinking , less of an atmosphere. I mean, they don't have an atmosphere, but given its their cup final, a early kick off certainly helps us.

Key is going to be how we handle Carroll & Antonio from their crosses & setpieces. Thats entirely their game. As for as us, good thing is likes of Kane, Eriksen, Davies,Aurier, Toby, Sanchez, Lloris are all well rested.

My XI :

Lloris,
Toby,Sanchez,Jan,
Aurier, Dier, Davies,
Eriksen, Dele,Son,
Kane

Anyone who believes that Son should be ahead of Dele Alli in our strongest 11 ....my word! (ungrateful)

As long as Poch rates Alli and Dier above Dembele and Son it´s hard to be positive about this season.

Lloris

Aurier
Alderweireled
Sanchez
Vertonghen
Davies

Dier
Dembele

Erisken
Alli

Kane

No because my preferred line up is not necessarily or usually Poch's.

 

[coys200]

Personally thought the point was discussing all aspects of team selection.Which is slightly more interesting than just posting generic line ups.

[NinjaTuna]

Moussa Sissoko and 10 other ****s.

Says who? There's no rules in this thread people can pick what they want ffs.

Where did I say that they cant? I am referring to the fact that when they do they are challenged unnecessarily. Probably best to follow the dialogue in its entirety before commenting

I always pick the team based on what team we are likely to see

I think you need to read his post again, he's merely picked his team...only thing he has done differently to everyone else is quoted the OP

Fair enough and nothing wrong with that. I choose to pick from those who are available who I want see. Our choices and people should respect them without having to make irrelevant and uncalled for comments

He quoted it then went on to compare it with what Poch will or will not do, which should have nothing to do the OP's selection.

Okay...no rules against that though is there?

Lloris
Alderweireld - Sanchez - Vertonghen
Aurier - Eriksen - Dier - Dele - Davies
Kane - Son

Vorm - Trippier - Foyth - Dembele - Winks - Sissoko - Llorente​

I will concede that there is none, but is does the kill the spirit of the thread in my opinion
