Tottenham Hotspur v Hull City

[1882]

Defoe and Chiriches not on the bench?

TBH, I think Vlad has been struggling the past few games... and you get the feeling he was just holding the frt until Jan came back...

Plus it's a Saturday, he'll be out on the lash in about 2 hours!!!!!!!!

would have liked to seen Defoe on the bench what is all that about.

 

[1882]

Hull line-up - Harper, Rosenior, Figueroa, Davies, McShane, Huddlestone, Meyler, Elmohamady, Brady, Jelavic, Long.
Hull subs - Jakupovic, Bruce, Koren, Boyd, Quinn, Fryatt, Sagbo.

If we lose today its all your fault Bentaleb.

Ryan Nelsen protecting his investment perhaps???!!!!!

i see the love child starts again.

As soon as the alka seltzer kicks in

 

[Abbey Yid]

Not complaining about Bentaleb's selection today. Games against this sort of opposition are the ones he should be starting, not in the FA Cup vs our rivals, or when playing the best team in the league.

Ryan Nelsen protecting his investment perhaps???!!!!!

if he is not got an injury why not let him go to QPR for a few weeks he deserves better than that

No pressure then??

I think Dembele would've started had he been fit... Dembele-Paulinho is about as strong as we can get without Sandro in the 'mix'...
...so I guess one way of looking at it, was Paulinho's timing coming back from injury is pretty useful, what with Holtby gone for now too...
...coulda been worse, might have been Bentelab & Siggy in the middle there today in an alternate Universe!!

 

[williams316]

Saying that Bentaleb will be ok today it against the top 4 teams he looks a bit lost with only the few games he has had

 

[Mick Cooper]

Calm down Mick - it's the internet. It was an analogy, not an accurate description of his actual abilities.

Vertonghen isn't Usain Bolt either, but he is supremely talented and Dawson is nowhere near him.

what you said was disrespectful and wrong, the fact this is the internet isn't an excuse for posting crap, its just that you can.
Dawson possesses talents and ability that people like you (his detractors) deliberately ignore, as it makes your condemnation easier.
and I'm not agitated or upset, just disappointed that people are unfairly critical over a still worthwhile and viable member of the squad, and the club captain.

 

[Chucklevision82]

Really pleased that Bobby and Pauli are starting, shame Sandro isn't up to match fitness yet though, hopefully it's just a matter of days.

COYS!

Sandro must have had a setback in training

 

[Hegarz]

Delighted with the line up, so happy Jan is back

Save it for the final whistle!!
Let's remain positive on here for at least the next 2-and-a-half hours... (well, until Hull's 4th goes in...)
...do you think we can all manage that??

Pretty please! :adebaehug:

 

[Punt]

I wouldn't be surprised if Defoes only use before Toronto is a final send off game against Dnipro in the Europa if Sherwood is serious about using Harry Kane as the third choice for the future

 

[AVB'sclosefriend]

If we lose today its all your fault Bentaleb.

I probably should have put sarcasm font, of coz its not gonna be his fault his 19, I just hope he doesn't get overplayed.

 

[zin]

Holtby starts for Fulham in behind Bent by the looks of it

 

[1882]

Fulham's game may as well be in a Spurs thread with the amount of our ex-players they've got!!

But back to us though... COYS!
