I'd love a cup run. It's fun for the fans and keeps the squad match fit. However, looking at the sides left in the competition it's looking very likely that the quarter finals will be made up of 8 premier league teams with 4 of the big six still in. Realistically we're not going to win...
I liked what I saw in the hour or so that I watched. Grew in confidence as the game wore on, was always showing for the ball, composed on it and a very tidy passer keeping the ball moving at pace. There's a lot to like there.
I'd like to see him go on loan to the championship for the season...
glad I've stayed up to the small hours for that...
I shall be going to bed now. Hopefully Gyokeres can get a bit more involved, all the attacking play seems to be coming from the Ally mac, ali j, gross triumvite and bypassing the g man. The other two youngsters are faring better I think...
4-2-2-2?
Veltman
Roberts
Burn
Bernardo
Sanders
Propper
Ally Mac
Gross
Ali J
Gyokeres
Whtever it is it's a good mix of first team squad and kids. Great occasion for Sanders and Roberts.
Fantastic that he's back with the first team, it must be awful being injured for 18 months. Particularly when I seem to remember he was injured prior to that as well.
I'd love him to come back the same player but sadly I'm not convinced he will. He's been out a long, long time, will he really...
I think they would be wrong on the second part of that sentence. We do need another striker because we only have two. Two. For a whole season. A whole season that is going to be truncated. What happens if we get an injury? Or suspensions? Or loss of form? Or fatigue from playing too many...
Ryan: 6 Feel bad for giving him a low-ish mark but I view 6 as average and I can't give him any higher because he had nothing to do. He basically just had to hang around for 90 minutes until he could pick up his clean sheet bonus.
White: 8 Looks to be the classiest of our back three on the...
Vital part of the team for four years, we wouldn't be where we are now without him. Should get a heroes welcome when he comes back to the Amex(even if it is with Burnley).
If we can get a fee for him then I guess it makes sense. It became clear last year that he was no longer a guaranteed...
Outstanding performance. As good as any we've given in the premier league I think. Better from start to finish, we were better in every department and were better man for man. The only blemish was the red card. Oh Yves! you silly boy. He'll be a big miss, he had man of the match in the bag...
Wonderful performance so far. A second half as comfortable as the first would be dreamy. In fact that first half was so comfortable I'm nervous about the second half...
I'm not sure Spurs will get an easier three points all season. Southampton are stubbornly insisting on playing a high defensive line which Spurs are gleefully lobbing balls over and through for Son to score, score, score, score with. Why are Southampton persisting with this clearly disastrous...
