There has to be a question mark against Ryan Mason with performances of late. Maybe he needs a rest and time to re focus. Doubtful that Townsend will start based on his last outing and then theres the Lennon/Lamela debate on the right. We really need to find a settled midfield. I'll be most happy to see Eriksen central behind Kane and Chadli back on the left. Bentley is presumably one of the first couple of names on the team sheet. Thoughts anyone? I hope not carms Strombouli done more in 20 mins than Mason did in 70 against Swansea so would expect too see him playing with Bentaleb, same for me with Kane and Chadli and Lamela on the right as the best of a bad bunch. With the emergence of Bentaleb and too a certain degree Mason, perhaps signing Schneiderlin is not so much of an importance as it once was, after all how good could Bentaleb be at the same age as Schneiderlin ? plus we have Strombouli and several youngsters such as Carroll and Pritchard. There you go, you're picking the same team as me as i couldn't see him dropping Strombouli, who did a much better job than Mason. Same back four of Walker, Faz, Vert, Davies. Wonder what the manager will do? Lloris Walker, Vertonghen, Fazio, Davies Lennon, Bentaleb, Strombouli, Chadli Eriksen Kane Lamela just doesn't do it for me, happy to be proved wrong though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sotsira Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 If Poch knows anything about the squad, he would know that Walker and Lennon on the right side are a proven pairing over the years and can be formidable when played together. But i have a feeling that he has his favourites and Lamela & Soldado are amongst that group, so i'm not expecting much of a change to the team he played against Swansea.

The humble pie comment related to wanting Lennon to play not Lamela. Thought his backtracking was improved but overall still want to see more from him. Still think he picks the wrong option too much.

smokie36 Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Its a win...not much more to be said. An entertaining first half....yet we were awful in the second and barely deserved it in the end.

carmine Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Apart from a great goal nothing to shout about there at all. 1 Kane works his socks off as does Bentaleb and Mason yet again emphasizing how others don't. 2 Spurs totally hopeless defending looking like we don't even train. No organization. 3 We get an attack of the nerves as soon as we go ahead, sink deeper and remain looking weak and vulnerable until the final whistle. Change the record because its just so boring now how predictable we are. "No chance of top four" because we ain't got the balls for the big battles and we don't work hard enough, which Chocog, is what truly is lamentable 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the way Rose defended today, i hope Davies is back on Sunday! Lamela was also terrible, kept giving the ball away and giving silly free kicks and did nothing going forward.

However, it was like playing against a pub team for the first 20 mins leicester were truly woeful and we should have had it wrapped up by well b4 half time . Any ways next man utd !!

carmine Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Not much else to say that hasn't already been said. We keep winning, somehow and as usual largely due to the superb Hugo Lloris that won't be with us next season bar a miracle. Getting outplayed by Leicester City isn't progress. Just thankful again for another undeserved three points and waiting for an opponent to expose us for what we are. An average side with a great keeper. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alfieconn Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Abysmal ! How we won that I will never know, after games like that you start thinking back to the drawing board. Can someone explain to me why our fullbacks continually position themselves next to the centre backs so they then have 15 yards to make up when the wideplayer gets the ball !
