Yeah, this wouldn't surprise me
I also agree that I think Moore is going to find it difficult to get on the bench early doors if everyone is fit.
It's even harsh on Spence.
Maybe Moore will get a space on the bench after all.
Good decision BTW.
Having to wait until Monday while everyone else plays
Still tight as to whether Moore makes bench or not as we have a 23 man squad plus youngsters but Forster, Richarlison and Bissouma will not be in squad (nor Lo Celso, Reguilon or probably Solomon).
I expect Richy will be.
Who is playing where in that mf?
Jeeeez, no.
Bentancur surely starts now.... Who else joins him is the only question.
If Richarlison needed a 30 minute run out just to test he is almost fit, there is the first u21 match of season tomorrow (Friday) v Chelsea.
Don't be such a wuss!
Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou on new signing Dominic Solanke: "Thankfully it's what we expected. He's a top pro and a good guy, he's settled into the dressing room really well.
"Football wise you can see he has all the attributes we need. He still needs time to fit in. He's fitting in well with the group and training. We've still got a couple of training sessions to go but he's doing well. He should be [available on Monday]."
This sounds dangerously like he isnt considering him to start... which means Johnson / Kulu either side of Son... urghghh... I hope im reading this wrong

Topically; It's more the players being a wuss that concerns me.
Solanke first trained on Wednesday, so also has Thursday (today), Friday and Saturday ahead of Monday. Gallery: Solanke's first session at Hotspur Way | Premier League
4 days training is plenty of time to settle in - I think Van de Venn had one training session before he played his first game last year as a comparison.
Play him FFS!
It's not like it will be at the expense of Messi or Kane.
I'd be tempted to start Gray at the 6. He probably played there against Leicester last year as well. Get him bedded in there early as an option if Ange has had it with Biss.
