If akes fit he could play there

If Ake’s fit I’ll eat my hat

 

[Ban-jani]

He certainly is the best you’re right, even FFL has him as top of their forward rankings and most expensive striker. It’s just for me, who only ever watches our games, over the years I’ve always been underwhelmed by him against us. Son frightens me, with his pace on the break and his clinical finishing, Kane doesn’t. As such I’m genuinely expecting Dias to do a job on him on Saturday.
That’s where I get my idea he’s a flat track bully from. He is a very effective player, cos in 85-90% of the games spurs play, he’ll look great, and score, no arguments there. I’ve also the impression,
again admittedly not backed up by stats (!), that for England his record is so good cos of his penalties and because he scores against the minows who England play against most of the time.

He still worries me sick when we play them.

Him and Son are probably word class I think. I’m confident but it’s a tough game.

The one thing in our favour is that their defending has gone to pot.

He strikes me as a player who is very good at doing as instructed.

Probably another 20 in the squad you could aim that comment at , we could be worrying about nothing , at least Rodri walked off the pitch although they probably couldnt find a stretcher big enough or the man power to carry him

 

[hammocity]

What a change! Rodri was match day forum boo boy along with Mahrez and Gundo. Glad to see the doubters are having to backtrack, now for Gabby to come good and really stick it to them.

I'll think we'll absolutely shit em. More worried for West Ham at home. Get at them early. Their defence is absolutely woeful

 

[Gigant]

They have 2nd best defence in the league ,if Im not wrong

Did you see that last night?

Haha

 

[Cheeky Txiki]

Quite the opposite he's has all the attributes to play defensive midfield , Others ? i dont think Pep will risk Doyle against Spurs , maybe Zinchenko could do a job there , cant think of anyone else who could fill that position.

feel like zinchenko will be bullied by the spurs bulldozing defensive midfielders. Id say John and/or Gundo is a good shout.

 

[pavelsrnicek]

Play Laporte at LB and Zinchenko in Rodri’s position. With Cancelo tucking in Zinchenko shouldn’t be too isolated.
