THFC vs Wigwam Athletic (AWAY)

[Hegarz]

Is it really only dawsons 200th appearance for us today? I know he's had injuries and been in and out of the side but I'm sure there was one year where he played 50 odd games?

You're right, 06/07 he made 58 appearances

Where's Ade?

 

[Blanchflower]

Here's our team v Wigan - Lloris; Walker, Dawson, Vertonghen, Naughton; Dembele, Huddlestone, Parker; Dempsey, Defoe, Bale.

WOW

 

[alexwooty]

Where's Ade?!

 

[Tucker]

Adebayor not even on the bench

 

[jimmyriggle]

Um. Where's Ade???

 

[alexwooty]

Don't think anyone predicted that Hudd and Parker would both start. 4-3-3 with Dempsey wide, or 4-3-1-2 with Bale behind Defoe and Dempsey?

 

[jimmyriggle]

433 it is then. Balls out.
Lennon and holtby on in the second half to take advantage of tired legs

 

[GlosYid]

I hope it's 4-3-3 and not 4231 with Dembele wide right.

 

[Smoked Salmon]

Surprised not to see Ade on the bench. Hope Defoe lasts the 90mins.

 

[Mick Cooper]

Hmm I don't know, maybe I'd like to see some creative football?
And yes he must be so scared of the 3rd bottom teams midfield

I can't help thinking that Wigans problems aren't so vastly dissimilar to our own, in that they play good football but lack the sparkle and bite up front. My point was that the midfield they have is pretty good, better than their league position would indicate, and that it would be dangerous to assume that this will be a walkover.

 

[Hegarz]

Hudd and Parker? Not so sure, but I'm not a football manager so hopefully AVB's on to something!

 

[Mick Cooper]

Hamilton, Ontario? Thanks but I need somewhere between Lake Como and Bergamo?

Hamilton, Bermuda

 

[Nick "Trevor" Sharp]

Where's Ade?

Where's Ade?!

Um. Where's Ade???

Don't ask! He might come back!

 

[Nick "Trevor" Sharp]

By the way I fucking love the look of that formation, if we get an early goal we could go bonkers

 

[Tucker]

Don't ask! He might come back!

Is he like Beetlejuice? say his name three times and then bam he appears.

Ah I know it won't be a walkover, we are Spurs after all! It was a stupid post I suppose, just a combination that I thought could be interesting to see, no harm done

It wasn't a stupid combination at all, switch the wingers so Bale is on the right and Sig on the left and you have one of our better lineups (although I'd also make Holtby be the sitter, not Dembele)
Edit: When I say better, I mean more creative, and considering we are meant to go for glory and playing with style, being in control of a match is what it's all about!
