If Romero doesn't start, VDV probably will I'm guessing?
If so, I'd give it to him

Live football commentary of Tottenham Hotspur v Doncaster Rovers in the EFL Cup.
Going to be such a pleasure to rest starters, give some yoof a run out & get a comfortable cup win under the lights at home.
Can’t see them scoring & hopefully our fringe attack puts on a real show. The Brighton result would’ve felt like a win so let’s keep that momentum…
4-0 Spurs

Romero will start.
In the unlikely event he doesn't, Bentancur.

I didn't even realise fish have fingers, let alone that people eat them!So many opinions on who we should play tonight, hopefully Thomas has a plan to gain a victory without any dramas.
As to the other burning issue, can't have a fish finger sandwich without tartar sauce, what are people thinking?
I think he might be rested too tbh ..
Danso...? Bentancur if he plays would be my bet...
He can wear it on the treatment table!
If Davies was fit, I'd have thought it would've been him and Danso starting, but as he isn't, that is why I think one of Romero or Van de Ben will start.
Don't think Drag is ready?
Ange would stick Gray in there with Danso. Hopefully that malarkey is over.
I can't help but hear this being read in a French accent
No jobbers please, I don't want to see more than 1 absolute max 2 kids starting.
Let's take them to the cleaners from the off and give the kids some second half minutes, shall we?
YES!!!
Let's do that!
You'd still keep Romero on his stronger foot so he can help dictate play from the back.

Similarly I never realised that chickens could play the drums.
