Tottenham Hotspur v Newcastle United

[Norwegian Jim]

Captain Vertonghen. Nice.

Really, Timmy? You rather start Bentaleb over Townsend than have a decent line-up with two wingers. Or at least start Eriksen ahead of Bentaleb? This is getting fuckin weird

 

[Bumchin]

Didn't see the official tweet so guess I wasn't far away! Bit worried though as this leaves Naughton more exposed as far as I am concerned, and he's the weakest link by a long shot.

Team v NUFC - Lloris; Walker, Kaboul (Good news though ironic as I think Newcastle is the sort of team where Dawson is suited), Vertonghen, Naughton (NOOOOOOOO! WTF?! AVB did this and it never fucking worked. BECAUSE HE IS A FUCKING RIGHT BACK!!); Dembele, Bentaleb (This is really starting to piss me off now to be honest), Capoue, Paulinho, Lennon; Adebayor. #COYS

Well, I hope Sherwood proves me wrong and gets us winning this game convincingly. I can't see it myself with Naughton and Bentaleb playing but I hope I am wrong.

 

[Deuce]

The hell kind of lineup is that?

 

[ANTONIO MONTANA]

ive just seen the teamsheet!! holy fuck i hope its called off because for once i have to say that it looks like Tim's lost the plot

I'm pretty sure bentaleb was always gonna start so his starting capoue instead of townsend or eriksen.

The game's not even started, no need to panic because of a weird lineup

 

[SouthStand Billy]

True. Let's see what happens. Newcastle are there for the Spanking.

I have faith we'll win this. I just don't see how this is a good lineup in Tim's eyes. Surely one of Townsend/Eriksen is better suited to that LW role. Dembele has played 3 different positions in his last 3 games. What on Earth is Tim trying to do with him? He's a CM, plain and simple.

 

[Bumchin]

This is why I was pissed off with Timmy during the window. Saying we didn't need players, fucking idiot. We now have a liability right back in the left back position because he couldn't see that where we were fucking weakest.

I've got the right hump.

 

[Drewinho]

Still don't understand the Bentaleb hate.

 

[Cornish Lilywhite]

Them three were meant to be injured. Nuts. Debuchy is a good full back, will need keeping an eye on from Rose Naughton.

Fixed. FFS

 

[Sean]

hope it works but we playing a player out of position with two wingers on the bench

 

[moley]

Our lineup is more French, then Newcastle

C'este bon?

 

[Norwegian Jim]

Getting a bit silly this

 

[JDK]

Rose injured.

 

[AVB'sclosefriend]

I kinda like that Sherwood is basically forcing dembele to be more attacking and use his dribbling, by putting him on the wing. We might see a different dembele today.

 

[Super Jan Fan]

Everton game OFF.
Man City game OFF..

Newcastle game ?????

Being Spurs, we will smash em and be 15-0 up and half time then the wind with increase and the game will have to be abandoned and replayed - which of course we will lose.
