More importantly I think the 2nd half proved that we need to attack with a bit more pace and purpose rather than stroking the ball about on the edge of our own box for a week or so

grandspurs

Kane said post-match we were better once we had more width in the final third to force them to open up. The diamond makes everything go through the middle. Great against an attacking side who want to dominate the midfield, not so good against a tight back four.

See what you mean about verts now just saw poch post match interview, weird. Surely he must know he cant chop and change each week I mean smart rotation is good but it's ridiculous to change from the strongest XI each week with no reason other than you cant play 14 or 15 players...the defence especially needs to play a run of games together and form a bond to work well for us this season.

-------------------------Winks

----------GLC---------------------------Ndombele

------------------------Eriksen

Would be so ridiculously good

Makes it all the more annoying that Eriksen is insisting on leaving
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Winks is an OK player and nothing more. When Dele and Son are back along with Lo Celso, I can see formation changing and Winks being on the bench.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Well no sandy because football doesnt work that way

You needed a midfielder who is going to sit deep and sceeen
----------------------------------------------------------------------

What like he did for the Villa goal.

I still don`t know why Verts did not play, was he injured?

More like when he was the only man back defending after lamela gave it away from a short corner and he won the ball back preventing an easy villa goal

But it's ok keep throwing whatever shiiiit you can come up with to defend your position at the wall and see what sticks

Absolutely, hundreds of go nowhere passing has been the order of the day for quite a while now.

Christopher I get you like Winks, but however you try to dress it up, Winks is not top draw. Decent player, but never going to push on to the next level if Winks and Sissoko are both in the team together.

Kane plays better as a lone striker than with someone close to him
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Oh I don’t know?? Seem to recall Deli scores quite a few goals playing off Jane in his 1st 2 seasons???

Eriksen could’ve come on for any of the midfield and we’d improve

Dele ran past Kane from deep, I’m talking about when Lucas and Son play right next go him.

So you have proved my point, Winks should not be in the team in front of players like Eriksen, different positions I know, but Winks is to much like a crab for my liking, all sideways and backwards.

That's like saying Walker-Peters shouldn't be in the team in front of players like Eriksen.

They play different positions. Winks and Eriksen should both be starting.

Lo Celso confirmed in the match day squad

posted on 17/8/19

Good afternoon gents

I hope your all well. Our first big test come in the form of the champions, I’ve read a lot comments this week by our fans and it appears that most don’t give us a chance.

The 2 games last season in the league were close affairs and we did beat them in CL so there’s no reason why we can’t get something out of the game.

I’m tempted to go for a 2-1 win for us, but I think it might be a score draw.

COYS!!!
