Tottenham v Besiktas Match Thread

[chrissivad]

Live scores has our team up is it correct ?

would think its a bit of guess work. Would always wait for the OS to post the team.

This is the team - from the commentator for ITV4

Lloris Dier / Fazio / Chiriches / Davies Bentaleb / Stambouli Townsend / Paulinho Kane Soldado
#THFC team for Besiktas

Paulinho should be nowhere near the team ATM.

I like the lineup. Very attacking, and Kane deserves a spot even playing LWF over Lennon at all, and I'm not even that big of a Kane fan.

 

[DaSpurs]

Paulinho should be nowhere near the team ATM.

I think it's a combo of Poch trying to a) find any place for him, b) holding down since we don't currently have backup for Eriksen, and c) keeping Pauli's value up for the event of likelier and likelier sale.

How is he going to get used to poch's system and gain confidence if he doesn't play?

Paulinho should be nowhere near the team ATM.

How else is he suppose to get match practice/fitness/form?

Team is up... No Lennon, pretty sure that will have a lot to do with his antics Sunday and not showing up to training Monday.

You make the insinuation we have future plans for him. I think at this point the more likely outcome is impending sale. He cannot possibly be content with his situation, and it doesn't look promising with the advent of Mason, Bentaleb's potential, and the fact it seems Poch rates Dembele.

Mark my words, Chiriches and Paulinho after tonight will be challenging for the 1st team on Sunday.

Quote my post around 10PM.

Woh, he didn't even show up to training on Monday? Less than a week after wearing the armband?

I just don't think he's good enough, fully fit or not. Pops up with the odd goal every few games but offers very little. Cant tackle, no pace, not creative enough to play as a number 10. I really don't rate. Been terrible when he's played any minutes this season.

I have been busy this week. What you talking about?

Please

Edit. Okay now found the thread.

 

[EnfieldYiddo]

It's the worlds least creative team.


What have we got there to get excited about?

 

[easley91]

Wait.. What happened with Lennon Sunday/Monday?

[paulcumpstone]

pleased to see kane and soldado in the same side, think they have shown a decent understanding when played together so far in there limited game time, think its a good decision, hope to be proved right later.

 

[zoneD]

...must be resting Lennon for the bench v. Soton...and who is going to give Soldado the service he so richly deserves?;-)
COYS

Fair enough, onions n all that, I personally think he's a decent player.
