Sounds like Kane will be rested. Well on the bench.

 

[thinktank]

Who can fill in the gaps? 24 players. From the front:

Verts
?
Eriksen
Winks
Sonupe
Yedlin
Paulinho
Chadli
Onomah
Davies
Soldado
Dier
?????
Townsend
Capoue?
Ade
Walker
Chiriches
?
Stambouli
Kaboul
Kane
Ball?
?

I bet Defoe has smuggled himself in there somewhere.

 

[Spurger King]

I bet Defoe has smuggled himself in there somewhere.

About 20 yards North of the last man I'd imagine.

 

[IGSpur]

Is that No 45 in the background on Pic 11-who he?

Edit:Ha! Ha! It's not Connor Ogilvie.

Dont see a number but Khumalo is in the back

 

[beats1]

Like Sampdoria a few weeks ago?

I don't see the issue people had with this, Zemen being doing this shit for years and with his tactics all the players ran forward

Was it ever successful?

Was it ever successful?

Dyche has stuck with broadly the same team all season and named an identical side for six games in a row over Christmas and new year.

He said: "With the run over Christmas and the amount of games we played there, the same team was operating two and three days apart.

"The team we put out against Tottenham last time was the strongest team we could field because of injury and illness. That will be the same again. It's nothing to do with overthinking the games around us.

"We want to win the game. We've had a nice little run of performances and we've been getting rewards from our performances.

"But the team's not just rolled out, I can assure you. There's a lot of work goes into each performance and a lot of detail to make sure they have the best chance to go and operate again.

"We know the physical stats, the training volume. So if someone we think is really on the edge of their physical capacity, then there'll be a decision to make. So far they've been really good with it."

 

[prawnsandwich]

"Pochettino said: ‘Could Ade play against Burnley? Maybe yes, he is not injured. Maybe I will make changes. We need to analyse who played against Crystal Palace and then see who has a chance."

Cards on the table now.

I want Ade out just as much as the next guy, but I am by no means against him going on one of his little runs to finish out his time here

 

[nasescoba1985]

Well for me personally I don't want the money grabbing bastard anywhere near our team ever again. The last straw for me was his attack on the fans and his bullshit about his family issues which has proven to be a load of shit and a big reason why he has been dropped. I don't want this parasite giving off negative vibes on the decent team spirit we are slowly building up. I don't want him starting or on the bench and can't wait to see the last of him.

 

[arunspurs]

Dier will play I guess - he gave a mini interview to @Spursofficial about the game.
Also, I think Kane will be rested.

My XI

Vorm,
Chiriches, Dier, Vertonghen, Davies,
Lennon , Winks, Dembele, Townsend
Soldado, Adebayor

4-4-2

Baseless nonsense!! You have nothing factual to support anything that you have said there. You just don't like him. There was no need to justify your hate.

Stop beating around the bush

Precedent suggests that this means he wont play. I have come to suspect that the OS interviews whichever player is at a loose end because he isn't been needed at the team talk...

 

[Everlasting Seconds]

Like Sampdoria a few weeks ago?

Takes me back to when I was a kid playing in the kid's league system.
Me: "Boss, what formation are we playing?"
Boss: "All in defence, then all in attack"

Maybe not a bad idea tonight.....

 

[Cavehillspur]

Full live commentary on Talksport tonight if anyone's interested!

Only nonsense if you don't believe it. I happen to speak on a regular basis to someone who works for the club and he told me that Ade lied to the club about his family issue. He was fined wages and this is a big reason why he has been dropped. He also told me there are so many things since being at spurs he has done " that will make your blood boil" but couldn't tell me what. You can choose to believe it if you want just like people believe all the itk on this site

Soldado was a massive failure in the first game, but at WHL things will be different, I think we'll have more freedom to play, so he may get involved more. Wouldn't be against him starting, but I think it could benefit both forwards and us in terms of shop window and/or fitness/confidence for the rest of the season if Soldado and Ade started together.
