***OMT Tottenham Hotspur v West Bromwich Albion*** Saturday 12th April 15:00

Benteleb is **** poor at playing the holding role...just atrocious. I'm finally hoping Tim is finally finding this out...although it took a while.

It would do, we've only played with a holder a handful of times under Sherwood
 
1. It is not be fair or reasonable to object to a manager naming an unchanged team after a 5-1 demolition. In fact, not naming the same team would be perverse.

2. And even if you are tempted - perhaps understandably - to say we could do with a DM against a not-terrible side like West Brom away, the problem is we don't appear to have a fit dedicated/specialist DM anyway. Bentaleb is no more or less capable of doing DM duties than Chadli or Paulinho, so the question really is moot.

3. Monkeying around with the team - say, by moving Chadli and totally changing our balance - just so you can drop Lennon would be madness.

4. Complaining that Townsend isn't picked ahead of Lennon is no more than an opinion that might or might not be correct. Citing it as an example of selection incompetence is utter nonsense because the argument for Lennon is at least as strong. Personally, I'd favour Lennon by a long, long distance and I suspect that would be a majority view.
 
Prediction: West Brom 1-3 Tottenham.

COYS!
 
Why are kick offs at 3.07pm today. I thought it was a typo but it actually ****ing isnt
 
My usual river just said they are having feed issues from the Hawthorns and are showing Stoke v Saudi Sportswashing Machine until they can get the feed sorted, noooooooooooooooo
 
"Today we are lucky enough to be healthy and we will go with same team and play an attacking way. When we play against the top teams, it is a technical mismatch, they are better than us, that is not the case when we play the other teams."

Very very poor comments from Sherwood pre match imo.

I'm not saying he should be there to play as a holder but he is at least a central midfielder. Chadli is not and Paulinho isn't really either, not in a two anyway. We've basically got four AMs and two strikers, just because we got away with it once doesn't mean we will do again in a much tougher game.
