Sissoko.....,,,,,,,,,NDombele.......LoCelso

.................Son......Dele

Play the guys that deserve a chance. Bench those that have been playing in second gear. Kane and Lucas have been below par recently. JM needs to show that nothing less than 100% commitment from the start is acceptable. Time to get rough.
 
The two teams beaten in midweek by Manchester sides try to make amends. Before these sides last met, at Turf Moor in February, Spurs had won their last three games, and 20 of their opening 26, to sit just five points behind the title-vying duo of Liverpool and Emirates Marketing Project. But Burnley won 2-1, Mauricio Pochettino “crossed the line” in angrily confronting the referee, Mike Dean, after the final whistle and Tottenham then went on a run of six wins in 24 league games that culminated in the Argentinian being sacked.
 
This is surely a must-win match for us. We badly need to win this match to get back into the top 4 race. The defeat to ManU was a big setback to us after winning the previous 2 matches. Now we need to make sure we get back into winning form. We do have a good record against Burnley, winning 6, drawing 3 and losing 1 of our last 10 matches against them in all competitions. But we did lose to them the last time we met them away last season. So, we need to treat them with respect to make sure we beat them at home this time.

Our attack need to be more consistent. We did well to score 10 goals in 3 matches after Mourinho took over. But our attack were poor against ManU despite the wonder goal by Alli. Alli has been in good form under Mourinho but others like Kane, Son and Moura have been inconsistent. Mourinho needs to get all the attacking players lift their game at the same time. We also need to be more ruthless in front of goal. We should try long range shots more instead of always trying to dribble into goal all the time. Wish Lamela is fully fit as his work rate and creativity can lift us.

Mourinho needs to find the right combination in o'ur midfield. We still don't know who will be our best midfielders under Mourinho. Now we badly lack a defensive midfielder who can control the midfield. I think Mourinho should call back Wanyama and see if he can get back his old form. Similiarly, we also need to get the best out of Ndombele. After all, we paid a huge money for Ndombele and it is such a waste if he does not play much. Sissoko was the hero against Bournemouth but became the villain against ManU when he gave away a stupid penalty. He needs to be more consistent. Still not fully convinced by Winks or Dier as they make too many mistakes.

We have to be worried about our defence. We just cannot seem to stop conceding goals. We have now conceded 8 goals in 4 matches since Mourinho took over. Mourinho needs to do something to make our defence good again. I think Mourinho should play Alderweireld and Vertonghen back together in defence again. Sanchez still makes too many mistakes. Gazzaniga too should be more alert in goal. We cannot afford to give away any soft goals regularly. With due respect to Burnley, it will be annoying if we cannot keep the clean sheet in this match.

We simply have to win this match. And want us to win without conceding any goals ! Let's hope we will turn up with the right team and mentality to beat Burnley and get back into the top 4 race.
 
What channel is this on in the UK?

No 15:00 Saturday K.O's are broadcasted legitimately on any UK based channel. Rule imposed to keep up attendances, don't ask me when it started but feel like it's been that way for quite a while, long as I can remember anyway.

I wonder if Amazon's newfound involvement in the game will come to change that in seasons to come.
 
Any team news ?

Wish Lloris and Lamela are fit for this match, especially Lamela. We should be beating teams like Burnley comfortably at home. But they won't make it easy for us. Let's hope we will put up a good performance and get a convincing win to move up the league table.

It's just so insanely weird, considering how money driven everything is anyway. Even in Norway, getting to see a particular match on a particular day can be a major pain in the ass (we do have access to matches on a Saturday, though). If I want to legally watch Spurs in Norway, I have to pay £50 a month for access to a TV channel's online content (I'm not interested in 99% of the brick on there), and still I'm not guaranteed to be able to see all of Spurs's matches. So what do you do? I definitely won't pay £50 a month and still not be able to watch Spurs, so you turn to the free dubious stuff (obviously).

WHY isn't there a decent pay per view option for the Premier League? Someone is missing out on a lot of cash ...

Anyway, back to the game. I hope we show a clear reaction today, start aggressively, get an early goal, and keep going.
 
Was really looking forward to going today and I've tweaked my back about 30 mins ago, totally stiffened up already, nightmare
