Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Just realised I won't be able to keep to my viewing routine for this season for this!

Wonder if Ange brings Biss back in but not for PEH, instead for Sarr.

Playing Biss higher up the pitch should keep him out of those yellow card situations.

Think he'd play Biss at 6 regardless.

Not sure what Palace's MF is like but considering we get our most reliable chances from pressing, Sarr would have to be injured to drop him, even if Hoj just won the ball twice for both goals against Fulham.

Harsh to drop Hojberg after playing well but what do you do?
 
The Bissouma dilemma. It’s absolutely imperative he doesn’t get a yellow if he plays. I’m not against resting him again for Hojbjerg and unleashing him vs Chelsea.

Saar may not be fit himself and Udogie hopefully ok.

No Olise and Exe is obviously massive. Going into that weekend 5 points cushion WPI lol f be massive

Problem with that is the international break.

Rest Biss and that would be 3 weeks without a game. He'd start losing sharpness and fitness.

Hoj did well but you play your best players whenever you can.

Good thing is we see that we don't lose as much as we thought with Hojberg at the 6 as long as Maddison is on the pitch.

I think the only solution is to not play him again this season, lest he get a yellow and pick up a 1 game ban...

Kulu is unlucky that he hasn't had more goals and assists. Other players are letting him down.

Not concerned with him at all personally.
Oh come on - that's the most dreadful excuse for an underperforming attacking player - ever!

He runs into blind alleys, he's not very quick, his crosses are Meh! - at best, and he's not much of a goal threat.

Are the other players letting him down by being somewhere else, other than where he crosses it, or standing too close to defenders when he gives it to them?
 
Bisssouma's on the team sheet v Palace, my first bet of the weekend will be for him to get another yellow.

Højberg did really well v Fulham
His forward passing will be useful v Palace
Palace are a shambles at the mo with injuries to key players
Bench Bissouma for that one

Play Bissouma v Chavs
He'll pick up a yellow
Will be suspended for Wolves
Back for City

This manager lark is really not very complicated at all
