Apparently you've forgotten how shit he is at defending.

very exaggerated if you ask me

dont understand why as everyone elses euro players are fit and ready to start , stones walker sterling and zinc have been training all week ?

They came back Tuesday. The club gave them a well deserved month off. Other than Bernie the team picked itself today. Need to be patient. On fitness this is our best team today.

Aside from the two lads in the back four, that's a pretty decent XI. And the bench; wow.

 

[wolviedinho]

The team is ok.

Ake & Mendy is a concern.

Torres up top or maybe raz.

No Bernardo in the starting lineup suggests he will be gone soon.

Tough game but this is the best we can put together under the circumstances.

Try to keep the game tight until 60min when we can use the bench. Spurs speed on the break will cause heart palpitations ;)

No Kane either. I see the team selection flap merchants are out in force again.

 

[Fordyboy46]

here we go...

Only that defence Kaz, that is a concern

 

[BlueMoonRisin’]

Let's give Ake a proper chance before calling him crap. He bided his time last season and made a costly mistake in a glorified friendly, but I'm backing him to become a solid player for us when called upon.

 

[stan bowles]

Not exactly flushed with pace that starting XI - Sterling excepted. Interested to see what number Jesus wears.

 

[Blue back home]

I have to agree. Cancelo v Son, what could possibly go wrong ?

Cancelo is great. I’ve no concerns there. Think it will be a tough first half but we win by two with second half goals
