Saint Garrett Posted 20 December, 2013 Share Posted 20 December, 2013 So there are two things on Twitter from the press conference.

trousers Posted 20 December, 2013 Share Posted 20 December, 2013 (edited) I thought he could have been more forthright in saying he's not going to spurs. I'm just watching it now. He was pretty forthright IMO....he simply said "I never comment on rumours. Never have done, never will" Nothing to read into that IMO When then asked if rumours about Rickie Lambert potentially leaving were true he replied: "There are always rumours. This season we have rumours that exist from the President to the Kitman!". At which point the reporter asked: "Is the kitman leaving then?" to which MP replied in English: "It's possible..be careful!"

Saint Garrett Posted 20 December, 2013 Share Posted 20 December, 2013 Would be tempted to play Osvaldo, although I wouldn't be that fussed if Lambert started instead. Think we'll have a lot of the ball, just finding the correct combination to get a few goals. Gazza; Chambers Fonte Lovren Shaw; Morgan Cork; Davis Lallana JRod; Osvaldo Would be my choice.

I agree he has had some bad games, Newcastle being one of them, but he's had some great games too that show he can offer us a lot. I would play him as much as possible to give him the chance of adapting and integrating into the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In addition, Walker and Rose, whilst dubious footballers are both quick to cover across. I think we can get some joy, but so will they through Gazza and if he plays, Jos Hooiveld.

studentsaint Posted 20 December, 2013 Share Posted 20 December, 2013 Not sure whether I'd want chambers or Clyne. The argument for hambers is that chadli is spurs biggest aerial threat (needs to be marked by a CB from corners), therefore Clyne would struggle with back post crosses against him. My argument for Clyne is that he is better going forward thatn CC and spurs LB slot is one we should target as there ate few choices. Think gazza, CC, fonte (I hope), lovren, Shaw, schneiderlin, cork, j rod, Davis, Lallana, Lambert. That front 4 creates so many chances at SMS.

SuperMikey Posted 20 December, 2013 Share Posted 20 December, 2013 Would prefer to keep Chambers in for this one, purely so that Clyney gets the extra rest time and is fighting fit for the Cardiff/Everton games. -----------------GAZZA---------------- CHAMBO----FONTE----LOVREN----SHAW ----------MORGAN----CORK------------ ----LALLANA----LAMBERT----JAYROD--- ----------------OSVALDO-------------- Subs: Cropper, Clyne, Hooiveld, S.Davis, JWP, Ramirez, Gallagher Lambert playing just off Osvaldo because I think we can play through their defence - Kaboul and Vertonghen are big misses for them. All of the front 4 capable of scoring goals, get in their faces from the off and give them a torrid time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enjoyed pints with Millwall, Leeds, Everton, Man Utd and Villa fans in there before. Don't know about this season, it hasn't been open much. Last season the KA had to screen off the back yard and ran a strict 'door policy' (show your tkt, home fans only) for certain games as and when directed by the police - Spurs was one of the games that was home fans only. If he doesn't have a home tkt prob best avoid the KA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
