Spurs v City - CL QF I - Pre Match Thread

[paulsimpson]

Yep,that sums it up for me too.

Very odd team,not one that i would have picked,but then i guess it has been picked with an eye on Sundays game.

At this stage of the season,tough choices and the odd gamble have to be made.

Yes , if we get a result here tonight it will be seen by fans as a good selection. Media may not spin it that way though but Media aren't attemting something well nigh impossible are they ?

B/R?

You know he’s a Brit. How’s he meant to know what that is?

Leftback was a no-brainer after all. There was only one healthy option - Delph (Surprised he is even healthy.)

That leaves Mahrez as the only surprise pick.


I took Kev over Dave, but I knew Ilkay and Dihno would start with one of the 2. I expected Bernado at RW but injury meant Mahrez.

In that light: while I missed out on Delph, Generalissimo, Walker, Dave and Mahrez (i.e half the team) none of their choices are shocking under the circumstances.

Why? Has Delph strained himself as well?

No doubt about it this will be tough but it’s why we have a big squad, will take a 1 goal scoring defeat but can’t afford anything else.

Son running at Delph......

Cheers :-(

Is it really that weak? serious Q

No. 10 of the 11 would comfortably get in to almost every starting eleven in the country, Spurs included.

Any chance of a PM for a stream please

Thanks

we are not that good a side to leave out KDB Leroy and Bernie. we are definitely not good enough to accommodate Marhez and Delph in the starting 11 of a CL quarter final.

Over 70% of this side beat Spurs in the league. Only changes Delph>Mendy Ota>Stones Bernie>Gund

We'll be fine.
