I had a dream a few weeks ago that we lost 8-2 at home to leicester
:nunofacepalm:
Their 2nd string would probably tonk us at the minute, that's how far we've dropped and with the oil money their B team would probably finish just outside the top 4.
I'm expecting nothing other than an absolute hammering and will be well lubricated with beer to soften the blow.
If we don't win I doubt this club will ever recover.What happens if don't win, season over?
I agree but I’d stick him on the benchIf we play Son who is clearly not 100% that is madness.
It would be typical Spurs and fitting with our season to play Son when not fit to try and get something out of a game that we have no hope in, for him to further injure himself and now be unavailable in games we actually need him.
I fully expect him to play as we already seem in desperation mode and short term thinking is the hallmark of a Levy run team.
Of course you’re not!Not being delusional does not equate to being a 'pussyhole melt'
Unless it began with ‘C’Revised, as looks like Son's fit.
*Has there ever been a backline all beginning with the same initial?
Gollini, Davies, Dier, Sanchez, Skipp, Sessegnon, Bergwijn, Lo Celso, Dele
No way we play DohertyI have no idea what players or system we will use tomorrow. I’m sure that if Dier and Davinson are ready they will play, their pairing was the foundation of our good results in the first matches, but who knows if they will be ready.
Without Bergwijn and Lucas it’s very difficult to select an XI, we only have one winger in Gil who I don’t think Nuno is quite ready to start in a match like this. Our other senior attacking options are Lo Celso and Ndombele but they are midfielders and playing them instead of Steve/Lucas will mean another unbalanced XI like we had against Palace.
We could try Emerson as a winger like we did against Rennes but without Tanganga that means Doherty playing RB which is daft. Or we go to a back 5 with Emerson as RWB but that means sacrificing someone else for another CB. Very tough selection for Nuno.
