Time to start a new tradition then eh. Wouldn't suprise me if Mou started a back up team then brought in his 1st team. Full Tottenham squad Goalkeepers: Hugo Lloris, Joe Hart, Paulo Gazzaniga Defenders: Matt Doherty, Sergio Reguilon, Toby Alderweireld, Davinson Sanchez, Juan Foyth, Serge Aurier, Ben Davies, Cameron Carter-Vickers, Danny Rose Midfielders: Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, Harry Winks, Erik Lamela, Eric Dier, Moussa Sissoko, Giovani Lo Celso, Ryan Sessegnon, Tanguy Ndombele, Gedson Fernandes Forwards: Harry Kane, Steven Bergwijn, Lucas Moura, Jack Clarke c Muzchap 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is all well and good of you have 4 CBs of a standard to compete for top 2 places. And yes rotations necessary - but lets see how many games Mason plays this season this indeed is a worry. i hope it is just a smokescreen like so many things he says bc it is obviously incorrct. Bayern had a ton of injuries but played most of last season with alaba and boateng as cb pairing. without that it would probably have been süle and alaba. Paris obviously had Silva and kimpembe mostly, Barcelona played Pique and Langlet, Madrid Ramos and Varane. Only 3men defences can afford some flexibility IMO. Also what does communication have to do with modern football? it is just basic logic. People are better and communicating with each other when they know each other better and players play better together when they are used to each other. Maybe there are other ways to make cb pairing work but surely having them play next to each other week in week out is the most obvious way.

I understand there has to be rotation but Shirley finding your best 11 players who gel together is very important. Then keeping those as fit and injury free as possible! That post I put in Franks post worries me. using 20 different defence combinations in 42 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NikkiCFC 8,324 Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 I like the lineup. But why no CB on the bench? Kepa is number 2 it seems. And Alonso is gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,918 Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 Thought for sure Thiago would've played here. Needs as many minutes as he can get to sharpen up. He's not even in the squad. In fact, we have no CB on the bench at all strangely. DDA 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 decent lederner lineup. No cb on the bench is weird tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hutcho 8,443 Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 Happy with that lineup. Maybe wouldn't have gone jorginho but not against it. No kante could be a worry. But mount in a 3 looks good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomiswave 6,117 Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 JM gonna park the shit out of it and hit on the counter whenever they can.....we must be aware of that. We must keep our back line in check. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZAPHOD2319 4,819 Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 I like the line up. I am really interested in seeing how Mendy plays. Hopefully he is lonely and bored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
