Thought you didn't want Romero playing for Spurs again?
Agree about playing a youngster at CB, ideally Phillips.
Don't see Bentancur being ready to start yet so would give Lo Celso a final chance to show he can have a career at Spurs (or earn himself a move).
Agree about the front 3.
Reinforcements needed in January.
Feel for you Sandy, dont worry ive given this article 5*

should be enough to give it a good go. only so much you can do with a small of quality squad under first year of a manager with this many key absentees
Bentancur needs to be eased back still. not sure GLC has a future but would play him over Bentancur at the moment but would rather give the future a chance.

I don't want Romero particularly playing again, but he is definitely better than Davies or Dier. Probably won't be long before he gets another red card anyway. Until the transfer window reopens, Ange has his hands tied.

That side wouldn't beat Rochdale.
Spurs have an excellent starting 11 but an overall squad which probably isn't good enough to get top 4. Sadly January isn't the best window to address our obvious needs.
We are not built to withstand the issues of suspensions, injuries and the upcoming problem caused by AFCON.
While we all love watching "Ange Ball" with our best 11 its very clear that without the likes of Madders, VDV, Udogie and Biss playing with the hand brake on (to avoid a 5th yellow) it simply doesnt work the same.
Sadly I fear the next couple of months are gonna be a grind and our drop down the table is gonna be quick and pretty painful.
If Spurs can somehow keep themselves around 5th/6th until we get our best players back then I think we have a good shout to make Europa football next year.
Spurs are not gonna build a squad strong enough for CL Footy this year so we are probably be better off taking it slow and strengthening as we go
Try and get Europa league football this year and use the next 2 windows to build a better overall squad.
No need to panic..... just gotta take it one step at a time
When Wolves equalised I was so p1ssed off that I took the dog for a walk and missed their winner.
Of course now with the benefit of hindsight I'm thinking a draw would have actually have been a decent result, especially as we played so badly.
With 2 weeks until the next match I'm hoping Bentancur will be nearer his old self because our midfield on Saturday was horseshit.
with the suspensions over i'd go with Porro, Davies , Romero , Udogie.

i'd leave Dier at home and bring in some youth.
Romero is a good player who suits our system but let’s face it he’s a lunatic. We need another top defender because we’re going to lose Romero for about 6-10 games a season due to suspensions, and we can’t afford for his back up to be Dier.
Is Lloyd Kelly at Bournemouth any good?

Glad you’ve came to your senses. Romero as far from perfect as he is, in streets ahead of Dier. Porro and Udogie are also streets ahead of the rest at FB.

Spurs made a terrific start, but you guys knew that the starting 11 had to play pretty much every game. Will definitely need to strengthen in Jan!

Oh I get that. But likeways Arsenal lose Saliba (like last season) or Saka and they too could see their form suffer
Makes for a good season!
2 points off the top after 12 games doesn't look too shabby.
Reinforcements required in January. Nobody would be surprised if the injuries cause the form to dip between now and then so it's about keeping in that top 4 until Jan anything else is a bonus.

Our current 1st eleven and squad is better than yours Sandy, that's not even debatable.
I don't understand some of you.
If we start PEH, the system fails, we lose. Are you not paying attention? He cannot do it, it all breaks down, but I keep seeing him in people's line ups.
At best, he is a Sheff Utd player in a very basic system.
