I’d give him 30 minutes.
He only cost 5 mil...
For 18 months he was one of the best players in world football... outrageous talent and so sad how it all ended up.

Maybe Bissouma in for gray as he loves a bit of goon stuffing.

I’d give him 90. In goal.
Put Vicario up front with Big Dom!
Don’t let anyone tell you we’re not massive

I respect the optimism.
I really do.
However; Since the day Levy sacked Poch it has been varying degrees of failure.
Without Kane; things got worse.
Without Son; things have got even worse.
There is no unique talent in this squad.
We have a handful of half decent players.
The recruitment of Ange and Thomas Frank were symptomatic of the sustained failure under Levy to prevent a slump, then to reverse the slump and prevent the slump turning into a crisis.
Spurs are in a crisis.
A crisis created by the failure of ENIC, under Joe Lewis, to intervene and remove Daniel Levy as chairman.
The decisions that have put THFC where they are this season were all taken by Daniel Levy.
Levy is now gone; which is a step forward but; the mess he has left us in will take a lot of work to correct.
Imagine being Igor Tudor and your first match as a manager is a North London Derby! Massive
Why on earth would you play Dragusin at LCB when (a) Tudor like his wide CBs to play really wide and progress the ball and (b) Dragusin has a terrible left foot and is shit on the ball with his stronger right foot? Dragusoin LCB and the inexperienced Souza up against Saka? Recipe for disaster!
I think he needs to tell the players to play without fear and remind them that all the pressure is on the goons to win, they can't even afford to Draw, Just tell our players to put in 100% effort and don't back out of any 50/50's get the crowd onside early and I think we get something, the new place can incredible atmosphere wise, if we can summon the atmosphere of the time we beat them 3-0 or the City CL game then I have no doubt their players won't be able to cope.
I would also force them all to watch the full 90 minutes of the away fixtures and tell them Sunday is the chance to redeem themselves and start the healing process!
Only because I wasn't being that specific with my placement. I wasn't intending to play vic on the right, either. But I can see the confusion.

Isn't Saka out for the season? He limped off in the last game, it looked bad.
I've noticed all of their fan channels and their ex player pundits trying to put the pressure on us by claiming we need to win this or we are in a relegation fight.
It's laughable how they are trying to take the pressure off themselves and put it on us. This is their weak DNA showing through. Truth is, they haven't had the minerals in the dressing room/coaching staff to win a title for 20 years.
Our season and whether we stay up will be defined by the games against Forest, Leeds, Brighton & Palace.
We have TWELVE injuries many of them first teamers. And a brand new manager and are in the worst form in the division. I'm not expecting a result, I just want to see us give them a game and make it as intimidating as possible.
But don't let these mugs dictate the narrative.
All of the pressure is on them.
We can fuck their season up they can't do shit to us.

It will be great to see him back here!
It's only a small thing, but I think this shows that the club are thinking the right things....
No disrespect to some of the guests they wheel out at half time... Cos I'm sure the likes of Bassong, David Howells and various others are still fond of the club
.... But this one is really gonna hit!
Dele will be an emotional wreck I imagine, as will many of the crowd...
This is EXACTLY the type of player we should be celebrating....
I just don't think you understand....
