Watford Vs Tottenham: Match Thread

[glospur]

Half an eye on the Chelsea game I think.

Not so sure, mate.

With Walker and Vertonghen suspended, if that was the case I would have thought that one of Rose (given the amount of games he's played) or Kane (given his recent injury) would have been rested and maybe even one of Dele or Wanyama. The only player we've really rested is Dembele, which is pretty normal. Son and Sissoko have effectively rotated throughout the last few weeks,

Good Eriksen interview in the build up.

If were playing 4231 with dier

If were playing 4231 with dier N wanyama playing cdm then itll be quite defensive. If 3 at the bacl then itll be attack-minded

I'd have liked to have had Winks start but the beauty of the team Poch has picked is that there is great tactical flexibility without using subs. I'm pretty sure Winks will get on at some point as well.

Thats a bit extreme.

Not when you realise how much more fluid we are with him on the field.

Someone buy Capoue a new jumper.

Mauricio Pochettino has told @SkySports that Eric Dier is part of a back three against Watford. #THFC

Haha I was about to ask capoues jumper intentionally ripped?

God I'm getting older

That Watford team looks very beatable, but when there are 3 former Spurs in the side you just know that Gomes, Kaboul and Capoue will all probably have the game of their lives today.

Expecting Rose to make the difference for us today, he has been phenomenal recently.

Yep. Rose is just the bollocks. Cue a shocker from him ( thing is, even if he is having a shocker, he never hides and still tries to make things happen )

Capoue, Kaboul and Gomes worry me! So many ex-Tottenham players in this division. Every week there seems to be someone out to haunt us

Poch saving N'Koudou for the big game against Villa then

 

[mark87]

Oh phew! I'm so happy it's two Liverpool pundits in the studio...

Agreed. We all need to be patient with winks. Like Kane when poch started, you don't throw a young kid in every game. He's so young and will have Years and years to play. Start slowly and use him well

This injury hit watford team bs is pissing me off

We have more first team players not playing then they do

 

[Dannyspur]

Trippier Toby Wimmer Rose looks like a good back four to me. Which could let us push Dier further up the pitch where he plays the best.

 

[Hazardousman]

Watford having an injury crisis, team with multiple ex spurs players, Tottenham needing points to keep pace...we all know what happens next lol.

 

[Hazardousman]

I am going to assume Jamie Redknapp and Carragher are on the build up? And the latter has somehow managed to mention Liverpool multiple times already?

 

[steve]

3 at the back for sure
