You also put Walker in your team when he's suspended. Poor show

Terrible- ah well good to give Naughton a run out there
I'd be amazed if Archer started this game, and I so hope that Gallas doesn't.
By all means rest one of Daws and JV, but not both. This is a massive game

Going to be tough but I reckon we'll win 2-0
Brad
Naughton, Gallas, Vertonghen, BAE
Lennon, Parker, Dembele, Siggurdsson
Bale
Adebayor
That's the team I think AVB will play. He tends to either play Gallas or Dawson with either Vertonghen or Caulker. Never Caulker and Vertonghen together.

I would rest Lennon, at least for a while. Perfect chance for Holtby to get some playing time. I dont think CBs need as much rest as FBs, so I would keep the Dawson/Vertonghen combo.

Naughton - Dawson - Vertonghen - BAE
Parker - Dembele
Gylfi - Holtby - Bale
Defoe
Think we'll see the normal line up but I would like to see.
Friedel
Naughton - Caulker - Vertonghen - BAE
Dembele - Carroll
Gylfi - Bale - Holtby
Ade
Bring on Parker or Livermore for Dembele at 55 minutes no matter the score.
Ade out at 65 for Defoe.
Potentially bring on Lennon depending on the way the game is going.
2-0 Spurs.

It's all about building an atmosphere for me - we play so much better when the crowd are loud and getting involved.
We need as much of that as we can for the rest of the season.

Can't believe so many tickets remain unsold for this.
:defoe:
That's my team, but I would prefer (and think AVB will chose to) play that midfield line up as
Holtby - Bale - Sigurdsson
from right to left.
Sure, but I can't see it staying like that the entire game. Bale will be all over the place, and Gylfi/Holtby will probably swap sides now and then.
Serbian ref who likes dishing out the cards.
Reffed us last year vs PAOK away when he yellowed 5 of our players

That was the god awful 0-0 when one of our players got booked for diving when it was a stonewall penalty right?
Seemed like a homer, so we can only hope.
However, the racism row between England and Serbia worries me. Probably send off Ade and Defoe for not being white.

Naughton - Dawson - Caulker - BAE
Caroll - Holtby
Lennon - Bale - Siggy
Dempsey
I think with Caroll and Holtby playing as CDMs they will be able to move the ball very well and control the game. With Lennon/Bale/Siggy/ Dempsey i can see 3 goals being scored. Very excited for this game, hopefully a very good game to make the away trip easy (hopefully).

So, are you Statler or Waldorf?
As it's a home Europa game, team will likely be:
Brad
Naughton, Gallas, Vert, BAE
Parker, Dembele
Lennon, Bale, Sigg
Ade
Though I would like to see, Holtby, Carroll, Caulker and maybe even THudd get a run out.
After games against Lyon and Inter it's not all that surprising that Basel isn't exactly grabbing peoples attention, which is a shame as I think this game will be a lot better, and closer, than many seem to be expecting.
