Thanks for your contribution.
Are you just looking at the knockout stage because there's the group stage too, would take much longer than 9 days from first game to the semis
3 group matches to play
Round of 16 matches to play
Quarter final matches to play
Semi Final matches to Play
Final
Seen no evidence so far. We need to buy a pure out and out striker....got a strong midfield now but who do they connect with?
They can potentially miss up to 8 games depending on domestic cups.
No idea if they can meet in the final but if they do, they'll miss four league games, two FA Cup games and two league cup semi final legs wouldn't they?
did eze touch the ball that half? might as well of not been there. if he was a big player these are the games where he would make a difference. he cant do any worse second half surely
It would be nice if he explained what he is talking about.
Gotcha. Well let's hope one drops out early.
Hopefully. Some strong African teams competing.
You and me can think it shouldn’t but Ange has said that they want outs before anyone comes in
AFCON is 13th Jan -11th Feb
Wed Jan 10 Carabao Cup Semi-Final (1)
Sat Jan 13 Manchester United A – 3pm
Wed Jan 24 Carabao Cup Semi-Final (2)
Sat Jan 27 Emirates FA Cup 4
Tue Jan 30 Brentford H – 7.45pm
Sat Feb 3 Everton A – 3pm
Wed Feb 7 Emirates FA Cup 4 replay?
Sat Feb 10 Brighton & Hove Albion H – 3pm
Last AFCON which I think was the same format, the group stage was 11 days so any players that go out in the groups could realistically be back for Brentford
Good situation at the end there but he’s the one they need to target to shut them down
Plenty of cover at RW. Richy, Solomon and Porro. For me, the issue is the #9Here's a 25-man roster, as of today.
16 @ non-HG players (17 max.): Richarlison, Perisic, Son, Kulusevski, Solomon, Bissouma, Bentancur, Ndombele, Lo Celso, Porro, Royal, Romero, Van de Ven, Sanchez, Dier, Vicario
4 @ U-21 players: Sarr, Udogie, Phillips, Veliz
5 @ HG players: Forster, Austin, Skipp, Davies, Maddison
RW a glaring issue, IMO. Son playing there might help? Or Porro w/ Royal @ RB?
Get to January with a committee of #9s in Richarlison, Son and Veliz and then reassess, unless Lukaku/etc. falls in our laps.
5 CBs for coverage, IMO. Davies 2nd-choice LB + LCB cover in a pinch.
Sanchez #3 CB, Dier/Phillips 4th/5th.
Sanchez + Dier BOTH being non-HG is a problem for our roster. I'd let Dier walk and find an immediate upgrade on Sanchez.
Love our midfield, but I loved our midfield this time last season... until we loaned-out Ndombele, Lo Celso, and (less so) Winks. Højbjerg probably needs to go if he expects to play anywhere near the amount he's received in previous seasons at Tottenham.
Our GK corps: still TBD.
INJURED: Bryan Gil, Sessegnon
LOAN: Rodon (Leeds), Devine, Spence, Scarlett, White
SELL: Lloris, Tanganga, Højbjerg, Reguilón, Dier
Anyone else prefer to keep Gil than buy Johnson?
Dier is not HG, Tanganga is HG and club trained.
Our most likely CB signing is also HG.
Reckon Lo Celso leaves. 2 full matches on the bench without a minute to his name
Good to have a bit more flexibility though for Jan
It’s not that he can’t be it. Simply that he might be even better further forward.
I absolutely love him to bits, but let’s wait until we’re really under the pump to see if he’s a natural six. Think people are getting a touch carried away. He looked pretty average in that Godawful two, so it’s not like he’s a marauding midfield monster.
That said, I’m just as excited by Sarr, so keeping Biss as the 6 is fine by me.
