Match Leicester (H) 29-Oct

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Is Kane back? We could possibly see our strongest team in the next few games, which I reckon atm is:

Lloris
Walker Alderweireld Vertonghen Rose
Wanyama Dembele
Eriksen/Lamela Dele Son
Kane

Vorm
Davies
Dier
Sissoko (when back)
Lamela/Eriksen
N'Koudou
Janssen

Cover in every position from the bench, and attacking options.

That bench is ridiculous. Just down to the boss to use it efficiently.
 
Is this thread going to be another where everyone spends the build up being very confident we'll win and then saying shite like "ooooh, I knew they'd be tough, so that's a great point and another clean sheet" when it doesn't happen?
I've forecast a 1-1 draw on Talkshite Premier Predictor Game. I have to laugh at all the predictions on the various Spurs podcasts, it's always "oh, we beat them by such and such last season" and then go on to predict a 3-0 or 3-1 result, with no consideration for current form or possible tactical approach from the opposition.

Their current form away is comfortably the worst in the league.

Wanyama-Dembele
Son-Alli-Eriksen

We've got to win this game, no excuses. Eriksen has to step it up, he has been pretty useless for the majority of this season.
 
If they said that, they're wrong. We beat them 4-3 at home, think it was April 2015. Ranieri didn't lose to us in the Premier League with Leicester, a massive TWO games, one draw, one defeat for us at home.

Overall we have played Leicester four times under Ranieri incl. Cup ties; one win, two draws, one defeat.
It was still Leicester in the Premier League, though. We haven't been them in the league under Ranieri, like I said, in a massive two games.
I think they mean ranieri versus us.
So when he was in charge of chelsea too.
 
It's not like Poch has a lot of alternatives lined up though, has he? In terms of being a creative passer Lamela comes closest, and he has been equally poor. Not many options available to Poch, so he has to stick it out with these guys despite them not performing.
He does though. He could go full Gibbsy & play 4-4-2 with Rose at left midfield & Walker at right midfield.

:troll:

Eriksen has become a one in four player for us over the last year or so , he has one good game and is completely anonymous for the othee three , such a talented player aswell
 
Eh?? I'm confused.. You said we did beat them under Ranieri, 4-3..But he was not manager then..

Or am I missing something?

They were right to say that we didn't beat them in two games in the league under Ranieri (I misread the first post!), but we have still beaten his team, but not in the league...and the 'streak' is over two games...one draw and one defeat. Hardly worth mentioning, as long as we actually beat them last season.
