Match Threads Burnley vs Spurs - Match Thread

Defensive.

 

[yankspurs]

5 CB’s is interesting

 

[ikky]

Lloris back, Ndombele starts

 

[Deleted member 27995]

Booooo!

 

[Everlasting Seconds]

Ndbomele exists?!
He'll be like a new player next season...





...Hampered and "settling in".

 

[Johnny J]

I see the new tactic is to play all the defenders. I'm sure it'll go swimmingly.

 

[JCRD]

To be honest I don't give a shit about the line up itself. I care more about our approach and how we intend on playing.

That's more important.

 

[gushayes11]

N’dombele away at Burnley. I predict he’ll last 18 mins.

 

[roslau]

WTF is that starting line up

 

[yankspurs]

Peak Mourinho

 

[NickHSpurs]

3-7-0 then

The first hour is going to be dull as fuck, the instruction will be stay in the game as long as we can until we can bring on our knackered attackers on the bench.

 

[freeeki]

Hugo and Erik back.

5 x CB.

Skipp in.

Ndombele in.

Lo Celso, Gedson and Lucas as bench options.

I’m going 4-1 to Spurs.

 

[mil1lion]

I wouldn't mind the defensive approach if we could defend well. I'd happily take a well defended smash and grab 1-0 win today given our form. I just don't see us keeping a clean sheet or even conceding less than 2. At least Skipp starts and Nodombele gets a chance from the start too.

 

[freeeki]

Also:

Gazzaniga, Aurier, Winks, Lucas, Lo Celso, Gedson, Sessegnon

is the strongest bench I can remember since... I don’t know when

 

[eddiebailey]

5cbs...

Yep, but ahead of them we have a kid making his first Premiership start and two players who combined don't have 90 mins in them, so you can see the thinking.

 

[Black]

Jose playing football manager yeah ?

 

[bigpalacios]

I dont think we have enough centre backs in this side, too attacking that side for me.

 

[NickHSpurs]

Expecting to see:

Lloris
Tanganga (WB) Toby Dier Sanchez Vertonghen (WB)
Skipp Ndombele
Lamela Dele Bergwijn

 

[midoshairband]

thought we’d play a back 5 ??

Saving Parrott for CL.
