Spence Richy Tel[/LINEUP]

Would prefer to see Spence at RW than LW. Tel at least gives you half a threat of banging one in from that left wing cutting in.

Richy has a decent record against Everton iirc? So Solanke and Maddison off the bench on 60 mins ideally
Why... perfect opportunity for him to show Tuchel why he's so good at warming the bench.

Story time kids:
Brazil lost 1950 WV final against Uruguay at the Maracana stadium. They did lose a bunch of key matches for years after that. Then they considered it a cursed ground and did not play any final or crucial match fearing the worst. They fully believed they would never win at that stadium.
Until 1993, where they had a final qualifying match to go to 1994 WC finals and must win at home against, you guessed it, Uruguay. There coach back then, Carlos Alberto P, insisted to play it at the Maracana and erase that myth in the people heads. I watched it live on TV, they had the Romario/Bebeto combo back then. They WON and qualified, you know the end in 1994.

Main point is, don't let scars from the past affect your mentality and focus. This is OUR HOME, OUR FANS, go out there and run for 90+ minutes and let's celebrate at the final whistle. It's just mentality. We came close twice since RDZ joined to end this drought. Third time's a charm.

I think I would start Madders left wing tbh. Go for it and if he comes off after 30 or 45, that’s fine

Agree with Biss and Spence and the rest
 
I know the overall consensus here is that Muani should not be seen in a Spurs shirt again. But I think we should still start him. They guy shows moments of pure skill with the ball, he just loses his focus quickly and ruins whatever good move(s) he does to lose the ball or give it away, or passes aimlessly.
I feel, at home, with the backing of the home fans, he will produce for the very final time. He should start. I would suggest he tucks inside more along side Richi to make numbers instead of spending all time far on the side and away from the goal area.

BTW, I, too, don't want him back. But we need all available legs and whatever skills there is. Desperate times call for desperate measures.
 
I'm dreading this Sundays game , If the officials are the same standard as we've had all season I see us going down . Are we the only club to not be awarded a penalty this season ? I've seen about as much as I can take of bad decisions now , another load will make me lose my interest in the beautiful game . It's not even football anymore it's a stop start game instead of the flowing game it's supposed to be . This VAR has been the worst thing to happen to football . Never in all my 60yrs of football have I seen players standing around for 7mins waiting for a decision to be made . Its not a game anymore it's become a farce . We have referee's scared to make a decision now and VAR don't have the power to advise the referee if there's certain criteria met . I'm balanced on the fence ATM . Will I renew my season ticket or save the £2.5k I spend going to football each season , and buy myself a new car . Decisions decisions Hmm

Gives it away far too much for my liking.
Just seems to run towards the corner flag and then gets tackled.

True. I think he is more comfortable playing close to the goal. Once he is wide, he does not know what to do and try to improvise. I don't know how RDZ could do it, but if he can push him inside more while figure away to keep right side pressure on, that might help. If we score early then back to normal set up.

He is pure aids, I can't think of one thing he contributes to the team
