Spurs (H) Pre Match Thread

[Draikin]

Can't understand what's going on with Sane, If he leaves and Bernardo or Sterling get a long term injury next season, we will have to play Mahrez every game

 

[Bazzmand Show]

If we do lose Sane, because of some personal vendetta by Pep - then the club has a lot to answer for. As much as I love Pep, he will be here for 2 more seasons at most and Sane could be here for another 5 or 6.

 

[PragueBlue]

not turned on him but Pep knows best, and if Sana is not included then it can only be down to attitude because we know his skill is there.

It could be for any number of reasons. He seems to prefer Sterling on the left and perhaps feels sane wouldn't be as effective on the right. He might be carrying a slight injury. He might be saving him to run at them when tired in the 2nd half. We have no idea why, so to say it is down to attitude is very unfair.

I wouldn't underestimate that Spurs team.

The back 3 (Alderweireld, Sanchez, Vertonghen) are solid and the front 3 (Eriksen, Lucas, Son) are very dangerous.

Think we'll win the midfield battle though as Dier is not premier league quality.

3-1 City

This Sane thing a lot of you are droning on about.....

What better than bringing him on at 65 mins when they're absolutely fucked?

People are creating an issue that isn't there imo.

He is fresh legs,not starting him is daft

 

[Dipsis_LTU_MC]

Front three of Sterling, Aguero and Bernardo is our strongest one at the moment that's why Leroy has to sit out. No conspiracy.

 

[SWP's back]

What's up with Pep fielding first 11 against bottom of the league opposition but rotating in important PL/CL games ?

Eh?

The problem is he brings him on in the 85th. Wonderful player.

Pep says dinho on the bench is tactical,leaving out your best DM can't be right

This is all very odd. Well Pep did say the FA Cup is the only trophy he hasn’t won :)

 

[RandomJ]

All but confirmed Pep has an issue with Sane then. He deffo isn't signing that new contract.

 

[rnblade]

Danilo should have been on the bench instead of Mahrez.
No surprise that Spurs ha e picked the midfield.
Speedy Korea & Mora left up top to catch us out.

Don’t give any of those cünts a sniff of the ball.

Even fresher legs against even more tired legs at 65 minutes isn't daft though.

Well obviously there'll be 100m or so to buy another winger if Sane leaves. I just hope it isn't someone like Dybala, Sancho or Joao. Even someone like Hazard would be a downgrade tbh.

Phil starts, brilliant. The future is here.

No mahrez, superb.[/QUOTE]

How the fuck do you know it s down ONLY on Sane ???

I love Ferna but Gundo was immense in midweek. He'll probably come back in for the derby.

I don't agree personally. I think a front 3 of Sane, Sterling and Aguero is our strongest. Guardiola doesn't seem to agree though.

 

[kaz7]

Ratboy is saying he has been told we will chuck in the acadamy if we don't play phil and he is begging for us to lose,fed up of him

 

[rapidCT]

I think the problem with Sane is that he didn t renew his contract. More than that, his mother came in for negotiations. Don t think this looks well in a football ruled by men. Much like Icardi and Wanda.

 

[BlueRebel7]

Even fresher legs against even more tired legs at 65 minutes isn't daft though.

Limiting the game time of one of the most dangerous attackers in the world is plain daft, even more so after a big game midweek where he got 5 minutes. Sane should be like a bomb about to explode itching for game time.

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

I mean I could understand the anger of Bernardo and Sterling weren't working on the wings but... they are.

Foden!
