Match Morecambe (H) - FA Cup - Sunday 1400 KO.

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

I think its White, Clarke, Scarlett, Lyons-Foster, Fagan-Walcott, John, Omole and Cesay out of the youngsters all in the training pics today.


No Etete, Markanday or Devine - I'd hoped to have seen all of them.

With Son out injured and Kane to be rested, looks like Scarlett starts v Morecambe ?

Only other first team forwards are Dele, Gil and Moura - surely without Son, we'd be cautious on Moura's playing time too.

I'm sure I read he's gone straight back out on loan.
 
I very much doubt most of us will see very much of it unless going to the game. In past years when not televised it has been almost impossible to get a reliable stream for 3rd round cup games. There may be some listed but they are never as good as those used for league matches.
With Son & Bergwijn out and Kane likely to be rested, who is going to get a goal? Maybe a blessing in disguise we will not be able to watch it and not sure how quick highlights will be available afterwards.
No idea who Mark Lawrenson thinks will score the 3 goals he is predicting we will get.
When are we going to get another goal scorer in? I am less than impressed that Traore will make a difference we need to get goals.
 
My worry about this is the same with Ivan Toney... He's tested positive, yes... But how many Morecambe players has he been in contact this week BEFORE HE tested positive... and as such, how many of THEM are carrying it, without yet knowing it, and will potentially be passing it onto our players tomorrow??

You should be more worried about the thousands of people our players are interacting with on a daily basis than the opposing team they play outdoors on the grass. We are having 200k cases a day. As long as our players observe the proper protocols they are unlikely to catch it from an opposing player.
 
Good afternoon, Morecambe fan here in peace

Hope you enjoy it and it's a great game.

The Toney thing is nothing more than a loose theory......

We got hit that week far worse than Brentford did.... It's entirely likely that one of our own brought it into the camp.
 
With Son out and Kane most likely to be rested, it also sounds like Bergwijn is more of a bench option than started based on Conte's comment “I have spoken with Steven today, and he’s solving the problem in his calf,” said Antonio. “I think, very soon, we’ll see him with the team.” For everyone else he said something like "they are available Sunday"

Gollini
Tanganga Dier Rodon
Doc Winks Skipp Sessegnon
Ndombele
Lucas Gil

Is the XI I'm hoping to see start. But we will probably see a 343 with Dele on the wing.

Wow, that is long. May well read when I'm not so err... busy.
But I pray Rodon-Sanchez-Tanganga never, ever happens.
