Tottenham Hotspur 4:3 Manchester United

Sandikan · Thursday at 19:27

First reaction is flipping heck that looks weak.
Then you think, actually it's not like we've got loads of quality missing, especially with the current Rashy and Garnacho nonsense.

Fts 74 · Thursday at 19:27

6/11 for me, thought Casemiro and Maguire would start.Ah well let's see how we do.I predicted 3-1 us.

Preditctions are much harder under Amorin... but good rotation today. Hope your prediction is true (or we do better)

Jaap · Thursday at 19:29

5/11, poor one. Straight to pens after 90 minutes?

Hughie77 · Thursday at 19:29

Can't see anything bar a spurs win here. He's gone full out , Amorin made changes again. Lindelof in a 3. Yoro I'm not worried about him .

I disagree with a lot of posters on here in that I think Ruben (as well as Ange for Spurs), will go very strong for this one. A win would be a huge boost for either side.

Welp, looks like that's not the case. Pretty strong rotation for us, but not Spurs. I think it's a fair strategy; the Prem and Europa are just so much more critical.

5/11 I’m getting worse at this

Straight to penalties & NO VAR.

very interesting lineup considering Casemiro didn't play in our last match and that midfield 4 are all about possession with no real goal threat other than Bruno

of coruse Bruno has to be disciplined enough to stay higher and support Rasmus

Leakamiro?

Berbaclass · Thursday at 19:31

People talking about it being a weak team but arguably everyone aside from Eriksen, Antony, Bayandir and Lindelof are probably in the strongest XI for me.

Crostien · Thursday at 19:31

Big game

It does seem like "Who cares..." line up and I don't really care, to be honest. The League and Europa League are the priorities. The trophy drought was halted for two years and didn't progress us as a team.

Really sad how this has become such a common attitude.

I still often watch highlights of our cup final victories throughout the years, including the recent ones. I do watch season DVD's as well, but the ones I watch far less are the trophyless seasons. I'm never buzzing thinking "this is the year we didn't win anything but, yippee, we managed to finish 4th!" Whereas I still love reliving the cup final victories of various competitions - and often some of the memorable games on the cup run to it.

Sent home with a temperature apparently.

Yeah because he was fuming he'd been left out!

Kayla40TS · Thursday at 19:33

Easy win for the lads today. Probably pop in 3 or 4 goals. I'm all in on Amorim and this is what the very top managers do. Reminds me of Fergie putting out nine defenders and still winning a match. Think Lindelof, Yoro, and Antony will all have excellent games. Rasmus with a brace.

Crostien · Thursday at 19:33

Five nil United

Weaker than I was hoping for - with the likes of Bayindir, Lindelof, Eriksen and Antony brought in. All players I wouldn't expect to see start a key league game nowadays (unless extreme list of injuries dictated).

This is a key knockout cup QF, so would have preferred to see some of the stronger options off the bench starting instead of them.

Hopefully they can put a good performance in, and the likes of Amad and Garnacho are very strong options off the bench should / when we need them.

Don't think we're taking this one all that seriously. Might be better off not having a two-tiered leg against Pool/Arsenal in the crux of the schedule.

sillwuka · Thursday at 19:34

Nice to see Amorim give chances to Lindelof, Eriksen and Antony.
If every player feels that they can play their part, we have a stronger squad as a whole.

Same here. We need to be winning a trophy every season.

not sure about Leak but i'm sure Ruben has brought up to him about giving the ball away too cheaply

DJ_21 · Thursday at 19:38

At least Amorim is giving our 2nd keeper some game time

Bon1803 · Thursday at 19:38

Funny feeling about Antony tonight and I don’t know why.

Dudu · Thursday at 19:39

Keep forgetting there's no TV broadcast for the league cup in the sub-continent.

Ugh.

I wouldn’t put Yoro in our strongest XI ahead of either De Ligt or Maguire, just yet. He hasn’t shown anything meriting that so far at United.

It’s a balanced squad, not full 2nd string but half.

Yes, my thoughts and energy tonight too! Come on United!

Lindelof the central of the 3?

I actually have no clue. I do like how the manager is giving absolutely everyone minutes in lineups that aren’t totally experimental so there is always a strong chance of getting something from the game… I don’t think lindelof has had a bad game in ages or am I wrong about that? I know he’s not playing much but he’s been solid backup for ages. Spurs would love to have him tonight

Tarrou · Thursday at 19:42

is Antony in the 10 or wingback?

I think he suits wingback better

but if he isn't 10 then who is? Maz?

WouterWeghorst · Thursday at 19:42

Tottenham seem a bit bipolar recently. Thumping city and then losing against weaker opposition.

We either win or lose 3-0.

Ekeke · Thursday at 19:43

I'm just hopeful that Yoro, Antony and maybe Eriksen take their chance to perform like they should be picked in our league games

BorisManUtd · Thursday at 19:43

Well it's surely Bayindir's biggest game in United shirt so far. Team looks weak with Lindelof, Eriksen and Antony but let's see. Expecting Spurs win unfortunately. Also I'd rather have Malacia start on LWB than Dalot atm as he was okay at Arsenal first half.

That's the spirit

Wing Attack Plan R · Thursday at 19:45

Could be worse!

RedDevilRoshi · Thursday at 19:45

So am I right in saying, that is every player in the 1st team bar Tom Heaton that has had a start under Amorim?

bosnian_red · Thursday at 19:47

Surprised Malacia and Zirkzee aren't starting, but otherwise no big surprise. Half rotations but still a strong team. Maybe would have expected Casemiro instead of Eriksen, but maybe Case comes in against Bournemouth

JezChan · Thursday at 19:47

I'm wondering whether we'll see any rotation between Eriksen and Bruno in the 10 and midfield roles. I can't see Eriksen having enough legs to track back alongside a pacy Spurs attack. I see both players more naturally in the 10 role, since they bring different skill sets in transition and on the edge of the box.

JoeyJoJoJrShabadoo · Thursday at 19:48

I think i hate Lindelof. I know for a fact he will be really solid for 50 mins then switch off and then lose the sense of himself when they score.

Judas · Thursday at 19:48

On the face of it weak team and I’m a little disappointed, but hopefully they’re really up for it, I want to win this trophy.

Gordon S · Thursday at 19:48

Love the positivity buzzing from the derby win! Lets go!

The Serpent · Thursday at 19:48

Bit worried with Eriksen starting in mid, don't know if he has the legs to keep up with the intensity against a spurs midfield but we will see.

izec · Thursday at 19:48

Lindelöf makes me nervous
