OMT - Spurs v Palace

[fernadez]

No Zaha for Palace.

No Zaha?

 

[ricky2tricky4city]

I think there's no Zaha

 

[SpurMeUp]

Wow another injury presumably! No Sanchez. It’s time: we’re bare bones [emoji28]

[fernadez]

Zaha no think there is I.

Palace have an awful record when Zaha doesn't play, so that's great for us. COYS! One more big push before the international break -- then the season starts for real, when we return.

Winks given a breather presumably. Nice to see Dier back, even if only on the bench

Don't you think the game will be decided in the midfield

Jesus Christ, we are DOOMED then. Wanyama Sissoko partnership is ... VERY special.

 

[Nigeyman]

Come on Juan Foyth...polish your balls and let em shine at selhurst park.

It's time lad!

 

[AdamB]

Pitch is likely to be at best greasy, at worst a bog, so our zero-creativity CM partnership isn’t a problem as long as they protect the defence. Our front 4 should cause their defence a lot of problems

If our players just stand next to the linesmen whilst someone else calls for a pass we'll probably keep the ball.

 

[alekaras]

Tottenham Hotspur - as per the OS line-up ... strange order, though

01 - Hugo Lloris
21 - Juan Foyth
33 - Ben Davies
02 - Kieran Trippier
04 - Toby Alderweireld
27 - Lucas Moura
20 - Dele Alli
17 - Moussa Sissoko
12 - Victor Wanyama
11 - Erik Lamela
10 - Harry Kane

Substitutes

22 - Paulo Gazzaniga
15 - Eric Dier
23 - Christian Eriksen
07 - Son Heung-Min
24 - Serge Aurier
18 - Fernando Llorente
08 - Harry Winks

Strong bench.

These 2 "players" essentially guarantee we cannot play a fluid passing game, we cannot keep possession... so we will have to miss out midfield OR let the full backs carry the ball into attack, as Wanyama and Sissoko cannot.

Unless he plays Wanyama at the base of a diamond, Sissoko right, someone else left but who?!

 

[Bullet]

I guess Trips will be told to get forwards a lot and play attacking, with Sissoko (or Wanyama) filling in behind him

*Cue loads of Spurs fans moaning Trips is caught upfield, when it is Poch's instruction

Interesting to see Wan-Bisssaka play

Our only option with two of our four in the middle being Wanyama and Forest Gump is route one. Against a team like Palace that scares me.

Could one of you post what's going on on the far wing during the match?

[Nigeyman]

Can't see the problem...

Victor wins it back and simple distribution
Sissoko box 2 box
Alli in there for creativity.

Get it, give it and one to go...

Nice mix.

 

[the dza]

If Wanyama is fit and on form, he can pass it well enough. Fit and on form, he can also dribble the ball forward pretty well. He should be fit if he's starting. Will he get back on track with a good performance though? Let's hope so.
