I’m travelling over to London for this game, what’s the story with the tube this Saturday?
How else could/should I travel from Liverpool St To WHL?

There’s a train strike Saturday and so very limited services from Liv St to Northumberland Park (1 train an hour). The tube isn’t impacted and so you could make your way to Seven Sisters and walk from there as an alternative. I’d take my chances on the limited rail services personally - just set out super early

It’s a bit of a nightmare as I’m flying into Stanstead that morning too!!

Aren't there buses from STN that stop at Tottenham Hale or Liv st?

That is a nightmare. I’ve just checked and it doesn’t look like there are any trains from Stansted on Saturday at all. Looks like they are running from Bishop’s Stortford, so you could jump in a cab from Stansted which will take you 10/15mins and then catch the train from there instead.

I'll have to do some research after work today!!

Just my luck eh? It's not that often I get over!!

 

[fecka]

I'd go like this for the next game. Hopefully some game time for Skipp, White & Deki in the 2nd half but with this, we should be ahead by halftime and perhaps switch out Son and/or Kane.

Forster
Romero Dier Lenglet
Spence Sarr Bissouma Perisic
Gil Kane Son​

 

[JR1994]

Lloris
Emerson Sanchez Dier Davies Sess
Bissouma Sarr
Gill Kane Son

I’d go Spence obviously but don’t think Conte will.

If Kane gets a yellow does it count towards him missing the NLD?

 

[panoma]

Would give Perisic 10 days rest now as he's been overplayed for club and country (imo).

Would also give Kane a maximum of 60 minutes for the same reasons and the fact our season rely on a fit Harry Kane.

Sarr, Skipp, Gil, Sess and Spence should all get solid game time here.

 

[sharky127]

I'm taking my boy and nephew up for their first Spurs game...i want to see Sarr, Skipp, Spence and Gil get starts and he will be devastated if Son doesn't play.

Forster
Spence Sanchez Dier Lenglet Sessegnon
Skipp (or Bissouma) Sarr
Gil Kane Son

 

[Japhet]

I'd like to see Skipp start to carry on getting up to speed. Give him 45 and then maybe bring Sarr on. Bissouma needs to get going too.

Hugo

Romero
Dier
Lenglet

Doherty
Skipp
Bissouma
Perisic

Gil
Kane
Son

Try to build on last night's performance and hopefully not pick up any knocks, then a week off before Arse.

 

[YB123]

Forster

Tanganga Dier Davies

Spence Skipp Bissouma Sarr Sess

Gil Son


We talk about rotation and needing to not tire out players so this the chance. Kane and Romero are vital players, so keep them on bench. It would be madness to play Kane again in my eyes.

Keep Son in team though boost the confidence.

 

[hughy]

To be honest I'd go more or less full strength. No need to rest with an 8-day break before Arsenal.

Spence, Sess and Sarr in for Doherty, Perisic and Hojbjerg and I think we're good to go.

 

[chas vs dave]

I wasn't looking forward to this, until I saw the Palace game. Really looking forward to seeing Sarr play

 

[WorcesterTHFC]

Lloris
Emerson Sanchez Dier Davies Sess
Bissouma Sarr
Gill Kane Son

If Kane gets a yellow does it count towards him missing the NLD?

Cards in one competition don't have any impact on other competitions. One or two people mentioned yesterday that a yellow for Kane during yesterday's game would have ruled him out of the NLD.

These games can be tricky. Put out a team of stars and you risk them not really being up for it, but field a scratch side of youngsters and disaffected squad players and you get a disjointed performance. The advantage we have is that Conte has just had a month to work with his fringe and drill them into a team. I would go:

Forster

Tanganga Sanchez Lenglet

Spence Skipp Saar Sessegnon

Kulu White Gil
​

As far as possible rest the players who had a big World Cup or have otherwise been overplayed, but have some quality on the bench if needed, with maybe a couple of youngsters who can blooded if we’re really flying. So maybe:

Austin, Doc, Emerson, Davies, Sayers, Bissouma, Devine, Son, Kane.

​

 

[GioW]

Lost count of how many times we've needed Kane and Son to bail us out from the bench in early stages of FA Cup.

Just start them , smash some in and take them off at half time

Even after a month, I don't think Conte is that good for Sanchez and Tanganga to both start in defence...
