I believe I know who the good guys are at Spurs and who the time wasters might be. On that basis, this is my favoured starting XI, after a process of elimination. The bench would tell us more, or alternatively, the actual announcement will prove I was barking up the wrong tree entirely!
That North London Derby outcome possibly came not much of a surprise, given how poor Tottenham’s second-half performances have been in the last three months. The performance against Dinamo Zagreb was an abomination.
Who cares… We not winning anyway
Fair enough. Their recruitment has been A1.
Villa work really hard as a team so can we match that? I dread to think who will start because our options are severely limited.
I agree, but if the kids were good enough, Jose would have thrown a few in already. Rodon hasn’t had a look in, and he’s been up against Sanchez and Dier! How bad must he have been in training?
Our problem is we only have a few players who Jose can trust. If he were to drop the wasters and the rubbish we’d start with 5 players! I count Toby, Hojbjerg, Lamela, Kane and Son here (who is injured). Not including Lo Celso because he’s been injured since the mid 1990s. The rest have not convinced me one iota.
Im talking about before they went to Leicester. We could never afford them now. The lad Fofana is 20 and cost £18m from St. Etienne and looks and exceptional prospect. We ended up with Joe not quite ready for the PL Rodon who is 3 years older
Doesn’t matter. Leicester’s top players arent going to Spurs next.
Are they affordable? They sold Easter Island head for £80m. Leicester would want top dollar for them. £50m each.
Hitchin is a prize ar*e*ole. He is terrible. The perfect foil for Levy.
Hopefully we are close to the tipping point with Levy. Think most fans have seen the light, if that’s the right word, for what ENIC is. Not a Jose fan but no-one will be successful at Spurs. It’s stinking from the head. Getting to the point where any decent player or manager wouldn’t want to come to the club.
Leicester have got some really promising players, the kind that Levy likes, young, afforable, with great sell on potential. What does Steve I hate my job Hitchen be up to when the likes of Fofana, Tielemans, Soyunchu and Ndidi come on the market. We should have been eyeing up Odegaard and not Bale at Madrid.
Off topic of our over paid bunch of failures I’ve been reading about the national leagues and how these lockdowns are scuppering the sides in non league. After getting lottery money for the winter months they’ve not been given any this year but have been offered low interest loans!? Imagine….making clubs on the bread line get in debt to play?? wonder what banks are getting the opportunity to serve these loans? More mates of Hancock and Johnson etc probably…luckily the majority are fighting to get the season finished and Dorking Wanderers who are sponsered by a litigation firm are taking it, with others all the way to the top. Good luck to em, it’s time everyone pushed back against this bollox, it’s nothing to do with safety. The clubs have met all the demands and even got free tests(which are pointless and not fit for purpose anyway). Hope they get to play cos this elitist nonsense won’t stand. If Tottenham, Liverpool and Arsenal etc can play, then so can Dorking, Welling and Chippenham etc. OPEN GB NOW
I would still start with Bale instead of Vinicius, Start giving Rodon some minutes alongside Tony
Agree – some decent youngsters may get an easier baptism with no fans. Might even raise the energy levels. ENIC have ruined Spurs. It’s criminal.
Does it really matter anymore…? What we actually playing for? Do the players he picks actually play? According to Jose no one listens to him anyway.
Personally, if we going to be mid table anyway I would rather see him drop the entire list of players he considers toxic and replace with kids that will play for him. Anything short of that sounds like excuses to me… If we had something to play for… Play best 11… But right now just play those that want to. Can’t even argue “what about the fans that spent the money and made the effort, they deserve best” as there are none.
Would have Toby alongside Rodon for rest of the season, bar the final with Rodon obviously cup tied.
That’s not a bad lineup. Sanchez though 🤷🏻♂️ I’d play Toby instead.
