Match Fulham (A) 1st March, 2pm

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Need to show balls and drop Vicario.

Bissouma playing for us again is an utter disgrace...gimme Pally or Archie over that mug any day.

Gallagher used as a sitting CM in a double pivot doesn't work. The man's main strength is his running and getting into the oppo box.

Do Xavi and Solanke really deserve to start? Honestly I'd rather play Gallagher in his natural position or give LWB a shot, with Richy in for Solanke.
People putting Bissouma in their teams is sending me.
Talk about needing fight and the right mentality and put this cunt in the XI. Baffling.
 
Glass half-full: We're better away from home so there is a chance.
 
Big Kevin Danso is one of my favourite Spurs players. I only like the players who properly try now. So basically I only like Danso and Palhinha.
Austin - Kev - Pal - Gallagher - Richy...that's your spine right there. Limited players but they'll always give you 110%.

Gray, Berg & Tel are grafters too...the Swede & Frenchy would/should get plenty mins if it weren't for injury/stupid decisions. Gentle Ben being out is a big blow too...man is proper COYS.

You need fighters & club guys the precarious position we're in, not prima donnas like Spence & VdV, pussies like Solanke & Udogie, cunts like Vicario & Biss, awful absent 'leaders' like Romero...

Austin
Jun'ai - Kev - Drag
Archie - Pal - Gallagher - Souza
Tel - Xavi
Richy​

I'd trust that side to keep us in the PL.

That centre midfield would be a league worst. Genuinely, we'd get absolutely eaten alive in every single game.

Hahaha that defence is aids
 
It's pretty much nailed on that Solanke will try and play sicknote again. Sore throat last time, so I reckon maybe a splinter in his finger? Or maybe a tickly cough? Perhaps a chipped finger nail?

When exactly did Solanke go from being one of our hardest working players to the latest fan punching bag for work-shyness?

Was there a memo sent out?
 
what I would like

Vicario
Gray Danso VDV
Porro Palhinha Gallagher Souza
Xavi
Solanke Muani

What I think will happen

Vicario
Danso Dragusin VDV
Porro Gray Bissouma Spence
Xavi Gallagher
Solanke
 
Make no mistake in a wing back system Porro and Udogie coming in would be a massive upgrade. It provides both width and chance creation. Udogie though you just can’t trust his body.
 
I'm no Dom fan at all, but the fact the man has been on antibiotics all week should give him a bit of a pass you'd think. That's more than just a sore throat.

Exactly. But also - what's he ever done to suggest he's the type to down tools? And why did suddenly a not insignificant part of the fanbase just suddenly turn on him like rabid wolves?

I mean the one thing he has going for him is his hard work isn't it?

Probably my last game of the season. Might do Chavs too unless that’s going to be a relegation party. We should get something. Has to be a reaction to the shocker at the weekend. Mind you - we’ve been waiting for a meaningful reaction for years.

I mean, I don't like him because he's another one of the overpriced average dross that we collect like keepsakes, but I can't fault his effort, nor Richy's. They're just not particularly good.

But certainly, getting shit for this is just absolutely bananas. I guess people are angry, and when people are angry they lash out. Everyone is guilty of it.
