Can't believe people are picking Jansen and therefore not playing Son in his best position. Words fail me.

He's lethal through the middle and should be fresh to go.

Best team on paper is not necessarily the best. Real question marks on Alli for me, but who the fuck to we replace him with?

Dele has had more rest than any of our other attackers.
I said as much about Kane and it got poo-poo'd by some wise sage who reckoned you worked harder getting fit. Honestly :rolleyes:

And given that Kane has had nearly three months off from playing this season which constitutes a couple of decent spells sat on his arse, you STILL get people saying he needs resting in the summer.

Does he fuck.

There's a lot of micro worrying goes on here on SC :D

Massive game. Strongest possible team IMO. Yeah I know we have the Ajax 2nd leg next week but this is arguably more important. 3 points a must to secure top 4.

Lloris
Foyth Toby Jan* Rose
Sissoko Dier
Moura Eriksen Dele**
Son

*Sanchez if Jan is not fit
**Dele should be dropped but we’ve no one else.

Yep. Got to go full strength. We need the win to put third to bed and also as a boost ahead of Wednesday. I think we can do it.

Spurs will have over 24 hours more rest going into next weeks Semi Final with our weekend kick off at 12.30pm on Saturday and Ajax playing in the Dutch cup final at 5pm on Sunday.

So I’d like our strongest possible team to wrap up top 4 please - and this includes Foyth at RB. I cannot take Trippier anymore.

We need some energy in the side. Go as full strength as we can, but i think Foyth as earn't a place in the side and probably KWP need to start as well.

Lloris
KWP- Toby- Foyth- Rose/Davies
Dier- Sissoko
Moura -Eriksen -Alli
Son

Subs: Anyone we got left. Though i be tempted to bench one of Moura/Alli/Eriksen to use as an impact sub incase we need it, and going by current form, we probably do.

Need to win this. I don't want to go into the last game of the season with Everton being a must-win. Play full strength, get a couple of goals early and then try and ride out the rest of the game to conserve energy. We can't have another game where we're chasing it until the final whistle or I think some of our players might spontaneously combust.

Jack Roles into the squad, the kid is doing all he can at youth level this season. Probably someone else too, who plays on the wing. We need forward options and I don't see the point of having Skipp on the bench if we already have two other DMs on there every match. Poch is literally picking players rather than the most rounded team (including subs), hence why we have nothing to offer if our starting attack doesn't work out. There's nothing wrong with playing academy players when injuries start to mount up, in fact it's probably the best option if you want to rotate

I just don’t know anymore. If I’m being honest I’d take the win here if it meant a defeat next Wednesday. We are literally crawling to the finish line.

With the threat of Liverpool winning the double, our serious lack of investment, our injuries, the Poch speculation and our general lack of good play this season has not been enjoyable in the slightest. I can’t wait for it to end to be honest.

Sounds like last season!

It can't do any harm to have Jack Roles on the bench to give us an attacking option.

I don't want to see a bench with only defensive players.
