That team really should be getting the job done without much fuss.

@SpursOfficial: #THFC: Vorm (C), Aurier, Alderweireld, Foyth, Rose, Wanyama, Winks, Sissoko, Lamela, Son, Llorente. #COYS https://t.co/sBhf99LIYf
Mostly the lineup we all predicted. I feel bad for Oakley-Boothe though. I know Poch doesn't want to take chances but I hardly see the point in having 3 defenders on the bench when KWP can cover both FB spots and open up room for him. KWP prob whispering a spell under his breath for one of the FBs to go down, a shame but I am less bothered than some will be.

Still not getting why poch picks two fullbacks on the bench, especially when both are RBs and one can play LB far better/more comfortably than the other. Feels like a waste of a spot that another kid could have had

Despite Poch being known for bringing through the youth he’s probably far more cautious than we’d expect. There’s a lot of players we thought would have plenty of game time by now but maybe they’re just not ready. I’ll trust Poch on that one, he’s called it right so far.

Would prefer if Aurier was rested for the NLD with KWP playing but happy with the team apart from that.
I'm not Trippier's biggest fan at all, but his performances against United and pool, make me confident that he'll do the job on the weekend.

Happy with that team

Hopefully aurier is just getting a half to bring him back up to speed after injury before NLD and then KWP will get a half
