Walcott doesn't do covering out wide anymore.
Hasn't in quite a while this season I've noticed.
That said, if that keep Vertonghen in is own half, that's maybe a good thing.
Tie Bale's shoelaces together.
Jenkinson should literally never leave his side
Don't think that Jenko will face Bale but if I am not worried at all because Jenko is quick himself.
If bale plays on the left, jenkinson will have no issues. If bale goes through the center then arteta will have issues
TBH, Jenko might be a better option against Bale
Bale plays off the striker in a sort of fluid 3 in the exact same formation as we do, so he's unlikely to face CJ too much. If he does, I actually think Jenkinson might deal with him OK. He's dangerous when beating people for pace or power (struggle to do that) or shooting from distance, which he won't be too threatening from if he's against Jenkinson and therefore out on the left wing. It's when he's in the massive gap between our back four and midfield that he'll be dangerous.
" Personally I'd like to see Jenko try to hit Bale with a reducer early on, shake him up a bit."

I wouldn't. If Jenkinson picked up an early yellow card.... THAT is when we would see every single Spurs attack coming down our right hand side. THEN I would start to worry.
i think coming from the lower leagues gives jenkinson a bit of an advantage, in that he's used to dealing with old-fashioned wing play. bale, for all the wonder goals he scores, is still a crude pace merchant who mostly gets success from knocking the ball forward and chasing it. this isn't anything new as far as jenkinson is concerned.
