Is anyone waiting to see what the starting xi is before deciding to stay up and watch the game?
Thanks, is Townsend dead?Vorm
Walker - Alderweireld - Vertonghen - Davies
Bentaleb - Dier
Dembele - Eriksen - Chadli
Kane
He didn't travel. Injured apparently.Thanks, is Townsend dead?
he died some years ago, his ghost tho still shoots balls to the Z row in the Lane.Thanks, is Townsend dead?
Beasley is getting old and isn't as quick as he used to. Gotten better defensively over the years but he's nothing special. Gonzalez is a good player but no better than an average premier leage defender.![]()
Will be nice to see Dempsey again. Zardes is one to watch, absolutely rapid and should give Walker a good game. Kaka and Villa gracing the same pitch as Tottenham is beautiful to see. The defence isn't much, Beasley used to be ridiculously quick so I don't know if he still is. Gonzalez is supposed to be a bit of a rock though.
Got a good feeling about Vertonghen this season. We've reunited him with Toby, hopefully stopped the rest of the defence being smellier than a radioactive shit creek, and it's been semi-reported that he's signed a contract extension (or we've activated an extension in his contract... something like that?). While he was a moody twat at times in the past couple of years, one could hardly describe him as mutinous.Interesting to see Vertonghen as captain instead of Kane - maybe Kane isn't going to be named vice-captain after all. Still think he is a bit too young, in my opinion and should just concentrate on scoring goals.
You drunk twink?Evening all. Really hoping this doesn't end up 0-0 with penalties after all the build up and beer I've been drinking to 'stay awake'.
