Asia Trophy Match Thread

No Livermore in this one, Im sure he will be on the bench for the second game on Friday! It is interesting that Jenas isnt part of the team for the second game running...!

If I cant watch the game, cant listen to the game as it isnt on the radio is there going to be someone who takes control and posts regular updates on here? dont know why im so bothered as I have a feeling its gonna go tits up again, although have a strange feeling Pav is gonna score...

 

[Dundalk_Spur]

No Livermore, shame would have like to see him with Palacious.

 

[NickHSpurs]

We'll see how Pav reacts today after the Crouchy deal, he'll either have a blinder or a shocker

 

[Danny1]

Little Luka is Captain!

 

[whitelightwhiteheat]

Harry just interviewed on Sky Sports 1 for the game suggesting we "just have problems at centre half" and hinting that there will be spending in that area. No surprises really.

 

[Flatters]

What time's kick-off? 11am?

 

[chkthfc82]

is luka in centre mid for sure?

 

[Danny1]

What time's kick-off? 11am?

Sure is mate

 

[chkthfc82]

was is the matter with jenas cos i notice there's no sign of him again?

I'm delighted that the Luka and Wilson central pairing being tried against premiership opposition. Hopefully they both remain on the pitch when Lennon is inevitably brought on.

Gomes

Hutton Corluka Huddlestone Ekotto
Naughton Palacios Modric O'Hara
Defoe Pavlyuchenko​

With Modric being used in the middle, I would've liked to see Lennon starting but lets see how this Naughton lad does.​

Cudicini not Gomes. Have to remember we will have a second game on Friday and then a game in Hong Kong on Sunday, so others will get chances. Maybe Lennon couldn't sleep on the plane and Gomes ate some funny fried rice.

You going INOMLS?

You must've had that quote box open for ages because I edited and corrected that 6 minutes before your post :razz:

I know everyone will get a chance, I just wanted to see the combination of Modric in the middle having freedom because of Wilsons running and Lennon on the right to take advantage of that freedom.

I also despair every time I see O'Haras name, I'm beginning to worry that he is part of our plans :-(

 

[raf18]

bale on bench? spurs site haven't got him listed. same for bentley

 

[BringBack_leGin]

Like others I will give more than my two cents after the match as I always do :grin:

 

[Hoowl]

The subs are wrong:

From OS

Team v West Ham: Cudicini; Hutton, Corluka, Huddlestone, Assou-Ekotto; Naughton, Palacios, Modric, O'Hara; Defoe, Pavlyuchenko.

Subs: Gomes, Chimbonda, Dervite, Bostock, Lennon, Livermore, Obika, Rose, Keane.

 

[BringBack_leGin]

Cheers Hoowl. Maybe this mornings info about Bentley being left behind is correct then.

As for Bale, he's still recovering from his op so he wa never going to be involved.
