Pretty underwhelming team IMO, awkward thing is that's them basically full strength minus 2 or 3.

 

[Mr Pink]

Didn't think Bolasie would start being out as long as he has been.

Shouldnt have started Dier. He's on 8 yellows already. We need him for the NLD. Bad call there.

he's a lot less likely to pick up a yellow at cb than dm and im sure he knows not to take any risks

 

[Mr Pink]

Since when was he ill?

Thursday night mate, was mentioned in the commentary during the game.

Ok then, thanks. I must have either missed it or had a different commentary team that didn't mention it.

I agree in theory - same with Alli - but Dier is less likely to pick up a card playing CB than CM

 

[Mr Pink]

Reckon the three behind Kane for Thursday will be Lamela, Eriksen and Chadli - with Son, Alli and Eriksen against Swansea.

Something like that based on today I would think.

 

[he is you know!]

Carrol not in squad, injury?

Cut across Achilles on Thurs, week and a bit out they think

 

[UpTownSpur]

Delighted Bentaleb is starting and he'll get the chance to show he's still got a big future at Spurs. I was hoping to see CCV as this would have been a good game for him to come into rather than a league game if we get any more CB injuries.

 

[Mr Pink]

Out of interest if West Ham were to draw today could that implications for our League game against them? In terms of a replay for them?

 

[Geyzer Soze]

Apologies if already asked...

Is our match on TV today? If so, where?

Not UK tv. Is in lots of other countries though, including Setanta

 

[Wsussexspur]

Reasonable happy with that team though I would have started Mason instead of Alli.

Don't think so aren't replays scheduled for the following week.

 

[minimike]

We're screwed if either Dier or Alli get a yellow, no?

You will only know that after the NLD

 

[Luka Van der Bale]

Don't think so aren't replays scheduled for the following week.

They're generally a week and a half after - which is when we play West Ham. Thus the question.

 

[CosmicHotspur]

I would love the youngsters to get some playing time.

 

[GutBucket]

Son was pretty bad against City and Fiorentina so I expect him to show up today. It's always exciting when Onomah plays and it's good to see Bentaleb in the team, I hope we score a couple early so we can rest Kane and maybe sub Winks to give him some minutes. We have to press them and not let Cabaye any time on the ball and I think we are safe.

Not in this country as far I know...
