Their only hope is a new coach. But Bailly will still be fourth choice and not get many minutes. VDB however is a mystery that he doesn’t get minutes.

I don’t know why but seeing Cavani and Ronaldo in the same lineup gives me good vibes. I think we might actually win this.

I don't mind Cavani and Ronaldo either...it's the mess behind them that is bothering a lot of people.

Is it my imagination or is it not true that Maguire and McTominay, both of whom look very unfit, have been horrific over the last month?

Where is the accountability?

I do not understand, why we play with both Ronaldo and Cavani. None of them have speed anymore, and I would prefer Rashford instead of one of them.

This. If he is set up to counter then the lack of pace will negate this. I would have gone Rashford and either Sancho or Martial up top.

Matic should have played. We need a passer in midfield.

Ixion · Oct 30, 2021

Keane saying on Sky many players in the line-up being given too many chances, people forget they were terrible against Leicester not just Liverpool.

pascell · Oct 30, 2021

Last time we played 5 at the back was vs Partizan Belgrade in the EL, that night they kept walking through our midfield and defence, having 14 shots to our 5.

Why did Ole buy Sancho?

seventy three fecking million

He's picked 9 of the 11 that played against Liverpool.

Even if it's a bit of a coward move to go with this formation but at least Ole is trying something ? I know, I know, I'm scraping the barrel with this...

He's not going for style points, his job is on the line and he genuinely thinks this is the best way to win.

What a boring, boring game I imagine this will be.

How many crosses did you see even with Sancho and Greenwood playing?

Good point

- wide attacking options then ?

City and Liverpool dropping points means we'll win and close the gap to them, dragging this out longer.

He’s lost the faith of a lot of the rotation players in the squad behind them, it seems. Bailly and Van de Beek are definitely against the manager. It wouldn’t surprise me if Matic isn’t a fan either.

Marcus · Oct 30, 2021

Aerial bombardment incoming. Could work with 2 strikers with great heading abilities.

Accountability is an ego thing duh, it’s like wanting to win trophies so passé.

Zoo · Oct 30, 2021

Win today and all will be okay for the board. Pep and Klopp have dropped points today too. Pressure off

Bailly must be fuming.
Can't get in when Maguire is about 25% fit.
Can't get in when we play 3 centre backs including a just back Varane and woefully out of form Maguire.
Lindelof...enough said too.

I expect a win because it's Spurs. But if I was one of the players that didn't start last week, I would be defeated, the starters embarrass themselves and the manager start them again.

DVB has probably given up by now. Bailly and Telles too.

It seems like he's thrown out any semblance of a plan and is relying on his big-name players to step up for him today.

I don't see how Bruno, Cavani and Ronaldo are better options than Sancho, Greenwood and Rashford in this counter-attacking setup.

SuperiorXI · Oct 30, 2021

Disgusting negative line up. Cavani, Ronaldo and Bruno on their own pretty much and 7 defensive players. Yucksville.

We all know that Ole will once again play almost the same team, but to be honest they almost all need to be on the bench at Tottenham. Not in terms of quality but some of them needs to be punished.

My team :

---------------------------------------De Gea---------------------------------------
-----------------Lindelof--------Maguire---------Bailly---------------------
Wan Bissaka-----------VDB----------Matic------------------------Telles
---------------------------------------Lingard----------------------------------------
-------------------------------Ronaldo---Rashford-----------------------------

Interesting and maybe worth a shot.

5 of those players will play to day I predict.

Would you like and under / over bet ?

Yeah it's pretty ridiculous. Van beek is a strange one but at least that could be seen as a punt on a squad player. However we chased Sancho for 2 years and he was supposed to be our right wing saviour, yet he's spent more time on the bench.

GioF · Oct 30, 2021

Disgusting. Ole is a prick for still playing Lindelof, Fred, McTominay etc after terrible performances after terrible performance.

Redfrog · Oct 30, 2021

Ole is doing to Varane the same thing he did to Maguire. How many training sessions had the guy ? Why Bailly signed a new contract ?

Ronaldo Bruno and Edi together. Ole must play FM

Ixion · Oct 30, 2021

Neville saying he thought Ole would make more changes from the players last week and no player could have argued if they'd been dropped.

MrSingh2002 · Oct 30, 2021

What's the point in having a 26 man squad if only the same 11 or 12 play?

Ronaldo's ego · Oct 30, 2021

All the blame being shifted on to the players.

Ole trialling Conte's ideal XI for him? Nice touch that

Don’t be ridiculous, how a manager who should be sacked can understand this concept ?

2-0 Spurs. Ole sacked in the morning.

Cavani has been doing the work of 3/4 players since arriving. Are you getting confused with Martial?

Cavani can't be expected to cover for Ronaldo and Bruno in defending from the front. He isn't 25 any more. He'll be out on his feet before half an hour. I fear the same old story here: no press, with McFred leaving gaps you could drive a bus through, and Maguire and Lindelof doing their Laurel & Hardy routine. Varane, just like Cavani, can't cover for everyone around him.

Spurs are shit as well.

We'll just have to hope for the best.

Devil may care · Oct 30, 2021

9/11, didn't expect Rashford to be dropped and i went with a diamond so had Matic instead of Varane.

Leftback99 · Oct 30, 2021

People were expecting an attacking line up after watching us for the last few weeks?

To be fair every time Bailly got his chance in the past - he's cocked-it up big time.
