wow I'm underwhelmed by that team

 

[cjsimba]

Lucas confirmed to have picked up an injury in training, thats 3 injuries now before a ball had been kicked, laughable really

Tbh if one of our forward players HAD to be injured for the first game, I’d have chosen Lucas. Still a shame he’s not available

 

[TEESSIDE1]

Sissoko brace

scoring or in one lol

 

[yankspurs]

Im so happy we're complaining about the team sheet again. Missed this. Fuck you covid.

 

[Metalhead]

wow I'm underwhelmed by that team

Why?

 

[SpursTillIDie1882]

Wow what a joke at CB, Dire really scares me at the back , even more dodgy than in Midfield. Toby must be well pissed off, also so surprised Ndombele aint starting and where the hell is moura? ... No real Strikers on the bench... Its nice for Harvey White to be on bench but we have so many midfielders on the bench , would have expected Moura there

 

[ackie]

2 1 to Spurs.

Just don’t start the game half asleep and at a snails pace. A bit of effort and keep the ball. It’s not much to ask is it?

 

[slartibartfast]

Argh fk I just turned Norwich game on and heard Alan Smith. I'd completely forgotten about that prick during lockdown and now the peace is over. Bollox.

 

[Yid-ol]

Not too confident on that line up! But on better news, iv just had a freshly pulled pint delivered from a local pub!

You've ruined the surprise now...

 

[bigpalacios]

Counter attack it is then

 

[dirky88]

Why?

Dier, Aurier and Sanchez in the same team? Are you winding me up? Absolute car crash.

 

[felmani26]

And are people really surprised with no Lo Celso or Ndombele? Come on, its clear Lo Celso has been struggling in the build up, and Ndombele is lucky he even has a Spurs career because past Mourinho, in a much stronger position in his career and team he has available, would have almost certainly banished him for his silly bollocks, he's going to have to work damn hard and then when he gets his opportunity continue to show the right application. He was never coming back into the team from the off.

We'll see where Ndombele's head is at when he (surely) comes off the bench for a cameo role.

 

[TEESSIDE1]

I’m predicting being one in the 1st 5 mins as that’s how we roll lol

 

[stormfly]

Before I saw the team sheet I predicted us to win 4 - 0 now I’ve seen the team, I think it will only be 4-3 I’m afraid.

 

[ClintEastwould]

It’s Friday and Spurs are back




Then the actual game:




And finally the aftermath:

When mourinho squares up to the ref the audio is perfectly in sync I am reeling

Btw we are going to get demolished. That is a tragic starting line up.

 

[stormfly]

Apparently there was 60,000 people in the stadium before the team sheet was announced.

 

[wiggo24]

Pretty clear the plan will be to sit and survive until the second half before bringing on the more creative players to nick a winner.
Almost worked at Liverpool but can't say its a particularly enjoyable way to play.

oh I was only joking The Last Jedi is the best Star Wars film of all time and Kennedy is great.

ok. I wasn't joking, the sequels are IDpol infested non-canon dreck, and kennedy is the franchise's woke goblin gravedigger.
but let's leave it there.
