Have we just given up even considering Tel as a striker ?I want to see square pegs in square holes and some minutes for our younger players. so I'd like tel on the left and odobert on the right
Kolo Muani played about 15 mins v Villareal for about 15 mins, not looking completely fit (hadn't played since June when he played for Juventus inn World Club Cup and hardly had a preseason with PSG) so although he might have recovered from a 'dead leg' I can't see him playing more than about 30 mins v Doncaster as he ramps up his fitness.
Odobert played as a 10 a few times for Burnley and did so for Spurs last season once or twice.
So to rest as many players as possible, we could have a forward line of :
Johnson, Odobert, TelI'd also have Sarr in CM as he can run forward into opposition box almost as a false 10 (Odobert too lightweight to do that)- so complete team
Scarlett
Kinsky
Spence, Romero, Danso, Davies
Sarr, GrayDavies
Johnson, Odobert, Tel
Scarlett
Subs : Austin, and 8 other players from Porro, Udogie, Van de Ven, , Palhinha, Bentancur, Bergvall, Simons, Kolo Muani, Kudus, Richarlison - maybe Takai as well ?
Spurs u21's play Plymouth in Vertu Ttophy (ex EFL Trophy) on Tuesday evening, so we will know then if any of the best u21's are possibly rested to play Doncaster, although I doubt it
Never say no to prawn sandwiches (when in the corporate box).Got a corporate invite for this one so am preparing myself for a 3-0 win and several prawn sarnies/cheese-pineapple on a stick
Miss, Captain or Johansson?--------------------Kinsky-----------------
Spence---Romero---Danso---Udogie
--------------Gray-------Sarr-------------
Johnson--------Simons--------------Tel
-----------------Kolo-Muani---------------
Comfortable 3-0 win.
EDIT - Heard Muani is unfit. Put Scarlett in.
I think Danso will play either with Romero or VdV. Need to strenghten the partnership between him and other defenders, as he's our 3rd choice CB. Same for Odobert and Udogie I think.Assuming they are fit Danso and Davies will start as our CB's.
Tel up top and Odobert, Johnson on the wings, with Gray in midfield likely with Sarr and Bentancur.
He couldn't score against Tamworth, so.......Have we just given up even considering Tel as a striker ?
You know … the reason we originally bought / loaned him
I’ve seen other big teams fall,to lesser ones.
That's an option, I completely forgot we had Bissouma.
Cheers!I would go with line up, considering it is Doncaster, and we should really have enough to see us through.
Porro ---- Danson ---- Davies ----Udogie
Gray -------- Sarr
Tel -- WTF didn't keep a youth AM like Devine -- Odobert
Muani
F*cking Levy leaving us short in the creative AM department, just loaning them all out despite having to massive injuries and then leaving Xavi to play ever single fecking game as a 10, until one comes back.
