Palace v Spurs 11th Sept 12:30 - Selhurst Park

[Wellsey]

They have to come up with a less taxing and more entertaining way of doing these qualifiers, they’re so outdated

Virtual? Like the new ABBA album?

Virtual? Like the new ABBA album?

That's the name of the game

 

[mummy]

That's the name of the game

This is a Must Win game.

This is a Must Win game.

The winner takes it all?

 

[FOK]

Skipp's gone off injured for the U21s

[VonnegutBusy]

Skipp and Son injured and Sanchez awol happy days!

 

[FOK]

 

[FOK]

We'll all put Tanguy in our team for Skipp

then go collectively ballistic when Winks starts

 

[AlabamaSpur]

 

[VonnegutBusy]

Assuming none of the injured lot recover I' guessing:

Lloris
Tanganga - Rodon - Dier - Reguilon
Hojberg
Winks --- Dele
Lucas --- Kane --- Gil
​

Nuno doesn't trust Ndombele - we all know Winks is starting.

That's also assuming we dont get any more injuries in tomorrow's games!

 

[Jimmy D]

Let's look on the bright side, Doherty's come through unscathed.

 

[Yid91]

Bergwijn came off for Dutch and had an ice pack on his ankle. What a few days

 

[Nutter-Naylor]

Going to struggle to put out 11 players at this rate.

 

[Darnswim]

Son, Skipp, Bergwijn out injured while Lo Celso, Romero and Dav not available.

For fucks sake do I hate the international break...

Lloris
Emerson - Rodon/Tanganga - Dier - Reguilon
Hojbjerg - Ndombele
Lucas - Dele - Gil
Kane

0-2.

 

[Bill Madrid]

Son, Skipp, Bergwijn out injured while Lo Celso, Romero and Dav not available.

For fucks sake do I hate the international break...

Lloris
Emerson - Rodon/Tanganga - Dier - Reguilon
Hojbjerg - Ndombele
Lucas - Dele - Gil
Kane

0-2.

Sad I know, but I'm counting down the hours to this game.

No idea how we'll line up, your idea seems great, but I'm unnaturally excited by a routine fixture

 

[Doc]

Assume Bergwijn will be fine, played well for the 60mins he was on and walked off with no sign of injury. Also seemed happy in his interaction with LVG when coming off.

 

[FOK]

Son, Skipp, Bergwijn out injured while Lo Celso, Romero and Dav not available.

For fucks sake do I hate the international break...

Lloris
Emerson - Rodon/Tanganga - Dier - Reguilon
Hojbjerg - Ndombele
Lucas - Dele - Gil
Kane

0-2.

Son and Bergwijn may be fit.

I'd say Skipp is unlikely, we'll see though.

Say it quietly, but Wenger's got the right idea on this one. Pre-qualifying games so we don't have the farce of England having four fixtures against San Marino and Andorra in a packed calendar. Have fewer matches, and play them all at once in a three or four week window in October rather than the constant stop-start and travelling.

The monotony of boring internationals certainly has that effect. Roll on some proper football at the weekend.
