So much for spurs resting people....same front 3 and nearly the same team
Just goes to show that all mangers spout bullshit at their pressers and constantly use the same soundbites about maybe having to prioritise CL etc etc......
This won't be an easy game and not playing dinho is a bad move...we were wide open at times as Gundogan offers very little protection for our back four. ....especially with Fodden in there id like to have seen a better defensive player in their with him....Silva may not be firing on all cylinders at present but he has the defensive guile to win free kicks et when it's needed...Fodden is a bit too "green" in that respect at present....though his drive going forward could cause them huge problems.
Defensively Foden, Gundogan, KDB is much better than the Silva, Gundgoan, KDB midfield we had on the game we won on Wednesday. Foden's work rate and energy are much higher than 33 year old merlin.
