Match Fulham VS Tottenham Hotspur. Carabao Cup. Tuesday 29th August 2023. Craven Cottage 19:45pm KO

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

There should only be say 6/7 changes in this team. I hope the keeper and both CBs aren't messed about with. Richarlson needs another start but how about a bloody goal, mate?

I don't want to even see Dier on the bloody bench!
 
Hate to break it to you but Dier will
Be staring this one!
:contehandshead:















For Fulham! :sonpoint:


Staring at who?

If I live to be a thousand I will never understand how Sanchez has his supporters.
He doesn't exactly have 'supporters' as anyone with eyes and a brain sees/knows his limitations.
However, he sure as shit is a better bet in this team than the slow, lumbering, non-tackling oaf that is Dier. Ange is no mug and he is surplus to requirements in this team. End of.
 
What a difference a few weeks make. From dreading yet another game, I am buzzing for this and so glad I've got a ticket.
Don't care who plays and what formation, I just have faith in Ange to get the best out of his choices.
I'm not naive enough to think that it is a foregone conclusion that we're going to win, but I do know that we will see attacking, entertaining football.
:coys:
 
Probably my wishful thinking but I'm hoping we go full strength in this match and not just trot out the usual suspects in the No Prize Money Cup runs in favour of Top 4 FC glory.

What gives me hope is that our midfield trio we all love were subbed reasonably early.

I want to keep the heart of the defence together, build that connection. Richarlison in last chance saloon for this match, Soloman and Perisic given a much deserved start.
Whilst I’ve gone with quite a rotated side, I am not against going much stronger as we really need to give the cups a go this season.
 
I will be fuming if Sanchez starts.

I’d be annoyed if Sanchez starts, but only because I want to play our first choice centrebacks. Playing Dier who has been frozen out, doesn’t suit our system, has had a dreadful preseason over Sanchez is comical though.
 
I would start Scarlett in this game. If he scores then maybe it will help solve a problem for us.

It will be really interesting to see how we do if we rotate in a few players. I have a feeling though Ange will keep the first XI fairly similar on Tuesday though.
