Match Everton v Tottenham Hotspur

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

So you don't think Dembele, Slick Vic and Eriksen are close to being world class?

I think Eriksen is and I'd like someone alongside him to compliment his skills. Dembele needs to add goals and assists for me to rate him as truly World Class, although the things he does are sublime I just feel he's a notch below due to not having as many strings to his bow and Big Vic for me has a fair way to go to reach World Class levels. Just my opinion though. I think Wanyama out of all our players might struggle most on a big pitch
 
easy win in the end,
just wish sissoko had not got injuried, as I was hoping for llorente & Aurier to come on in 70 & 75 min
can't see why Son came on as could have given Llorente 10min run out
 
Interesting that with four games played everyone has dropped points (ignoring the fact Huddersfield could win this weekend and have taken maximum points). Makes the points we've dropped less serious perhaps.
 
Thought we were brilliant today. The front 4s link up was liquid and Davies had a cracking game.

Sanchez looks the real deal and our bench for the first time in a long while had genuine options with Son, Llorente, Aurier Dembele and Winks. With Lamela and Rose to add to that we are looking in very good shape!

COYS!

The points against Chelsea and Burnley are massive in my opinion but those games are done now we just need to ensure our blip was early in the season (again!!)

Should be on ten points now without getting into a serious groove yet. Annoying but that's how it goes sometimes

How would Wanyama struggle on a large pitch? Seemed to perform pretty well away from the Lane on believe it or not a large pitch.

Absolutely the best kit since the seventies and best away since the sixties.
 
the back 3 looked better having Toby on right, Toby can see a pass,
when Dier is there its etiher a long ball, or he takes an age to move the ball on as Dier just does not see the pass quick enough
maybe Dier should be the middle play in back 3 (if he plays in back 3)
 
Winning never gets old.

Love Sanchez. He basically played back there himself allowing Jan and Toby to get forward when they wanted. He's speed and strength will be a huge asset.

Dier was immense. He simplified his game. Had a few great touches and was always in the right position. One his best in a long time.

Nice to see Sissoko getting himself into the right places. His touch still leaves a lot to be desired but def earned himself more playing time.

Davies. Wow. What a player. We most certainly take him for granted. Steady in every way. His crossing very underrated.
 
Could be interesting Son, Eriksen, Kane and Llorente starting?

Lloris
Alderweireld
Sanchez
Vertonghen
Trippier
Dier
Dembele
Davies
Eriksen
Llorente
Kane

I think we'll see plenty of crosses with Kane told to play off of Llorente for knock downs. I don't like playing that way but losing Dele and potentially Sissoko does throw a spanner in the works. It'll either be that or Son in for Llorente I can't see Pochettino going with anything else instead of these two options really

Sissoko is fine, he had cramp earlier.
