Ex-Spurs Player Giovani Lo Celso

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Would probably start him now, I think PEH is the better player in a vacuum but there’s just not enough attacking thrust with PEH, Bissouma, and Sarr as your midfield three.

Hojbjerg-Sarr-GLC for Villa with Bentancur coming on in the 60th minute.

Oh yeh shit Bissouma got a yellow didn’t he, so he is out.
 
Vicario
Porro ????? Davies Udogie
Hojbjerg Sarr Lo Celso
Johnson Son Kulusevski

I think this is about as good as we can probably put out with Bentancur coming on later.
It’s not a horrible lineup but we’d need some big individual moments to win, especially Son, Kulu, and GLC. Plus very little ability to change the game with the bench.
 
Gil ------------- Son -------------- BJ
------- GLC -------------- Sarr
------------------ PEH
Udog --- ??? ---- Phillips ----- Porro

I have no idea who to put in that final CB spot, but I would one of the youth?

Sick to death of Kulu running in to dead ends, holding on to the ball for far to long and refusing to use his right foot to whip crosses in.

Would have preferred he picked it up vs the Chavs, but I'm relived tbh..... He needs to get that monkey off of his back.

Just sucks that he was ever in that position...... 2 or 3 of them were shit calls.

No....it won't....how many times have we been here and done the barrel scraping trick....
 
We looked much better when he came on, and it's not a coincidence, he fits this system fantastic.

All on Ange for not starting him.
The safe, possibly even cowardly, choice was to play PEH, that's what really pisses me off about today. Totally at odds with what Ange likes to preach, disappointed in him today.

Bentancur would've been more palatable, but only because he's silkier, ultimately though it still would've been overly conservative.

To be fair PEH has had some decent performances. Clearly is a professional and works hard. Plus has been consistently available and able to show what he can do. Not sure we’ve seen any of those in Lo Celso. Bentancur also working his way back to fitness.
