Spurs (A) - Wed 30th Oct, 20:15 | EFL Cup | Pre-Match Thread

[K-Bo]

I think all the seniors who didn’t play today will play plus Nunes. Otherwise kids.

Ortega
Kid stones ake JWE
O Reilly gundo Nunes
Kid mcatee kid

Could be grim out there

 

[SamTheGuru]

I fucking hate Spurs

I am still struggling with the Champions League change of rules terror over the two seasons, but I don't hate them.

 

[SamTheGuru]

Play all the moaning cunts from the matchday thread they know what's what ; p

Nunes is starting then? :)

Play the kids

Literally no point in tryingt o go further in this competition this year with the injuries we already have and a number of them long term

Very sad but true

 

[blue whippet]

Can't see us winning this as we won't have much of a team to put out and a victory at the weekend is more important.

 

[Withnail]

The CL and the League are our priorities this season. Wednesday will be a big ask with all our injuries and whilst I don't like losing any game, I don't fancy our chances.

 

[ninjamonkey]

Ortega in net, maybe ake at the back if he needs some minutes, would have said gundo and Nunes last week but with the extra injuries, not sure we should be risking them now. Then mcatee and O'Reilly and fill the rest with eds players, and crucially, the bench is eds too. Rest get a night off

Anything stronger than that is just stupid and borderline negligent with the squad we have. We simply cannot be in every competition so there's no point in the extra games, take the early exit and concentrate on the league.

And you in addition to what you’ve said, I’d really love to watch a team like that and see how they fare.

 

[SWPISHOME]

I'd never be one for saying "Throw a game", But I genuinely hope we don't play any first team players in this game.

Play Bunny Shaw up front.

Fuck this game.

 

[Shazza458]

EFL Trophy Tuesday so we might not even have some of the younger lads available

Why does that always seem to happen?

Fuck this game.

Nah, don't want her playing either. She's vital to the girls' chances. (Fancy them for champions this year).

Amazed to find myself saying it — bin this game off, sharpish.

 

[Shazza458]

Would be the most spursy thing to lose to a heavily rotated city side

I was about to post the same. Let's put out a load of youngsters and if they get through then fair one. However, let's not waste 1st team players.

 

[blue b4 the moon]

Never ever go loss but it's the smart move.

We've got 5 outfield subs at the moment and it's great saying x will be back next week etc but by the same token someone else could be crocked.

 

[Fordyboy46]

This will be our first defeat of the season, not enough bodies available to play a really strong side, so I expect O'reilly, Wright, Mcatee to start.

Ortega, Lewis, Dias, Stones, Ake, Wright, O'reilly, Mcatee, Nunes, Gundogan, Haaland
