Stadt Posted 9 December 2021 Share Posted 9 December 2021 We need energy in the side for this. Barnes Daka Albrighton KDH Ndidi Maddison Thomas Soyuncu Evans Castagne Ward Midblock, look to counter quickly with Barnes’ and Daka’s speed. If they play 343 hopefully KDH and Maddison can find space in between the lines. If we’re too deep we’ll just fold like we always do under any sustained pressure. Rrahmani is 6’3 CB and had scored twice already this season so he’s a decent value bet for an anytime goalscorer 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EUFA have the overall say on postponed games I believe so if spurs have gone and postponed with say the clubs doctor opinion or whoever's say so then that entitles EUFA to act accordingly.

Long Eaton Fox Posted 9 December 2021 Share Posted 9 December 2021 plus vitesse's game should be postponed to the same date and time in the interests of fairness and sportsmanship if spurs game, as seems to be, is postponed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross 'LCFC' Turner Posted 9 December 2021 Share Posted 9 December 2021 44 minutes ago, Long Eaton Fox said: Not sure who's sanctioned the spurs match being called off but it's not UEFA. If it is called off then vitesse will be furious as spurs will know exactly what they need to do in the replayed game v rennes. Totally unfair and is the exact reason why the last group games are played at the same time. What is the number of illnesses that qualifies a game to be called off? Think I read somewhere that if a team has 13 fit players, including a goalie, then the game must go ahead. 8 from 25 leaves spurs with 17 fit players according to my maths. Should go ahead especially as they are home with no travelling required. Basically what I'm hoping for is spurs to be banned for a long time if the game is not played tonight. I heard on the radio this morning that all group fixtures must be decided by 31st December, Spurs fixture list until then reads: Brighton - 12th (Probably postponed) Leicester - 16th Liverpool - 19th West Ham - 22nd (EFL Cup) Palace - 26th Southampton - 28th Where do they even get the fixture in?

Long Eaton Fox Posted 9 December 2021 Share Posted 9 December 2021 1 minute ago, Long Eaton Fox said: But they will be investigating why spurs called it off "Discussions are ongoing with Uefa. We shall provide a further update on this fixture in due course," the club said. Uefa said on Thursday it will look at the issues that led to Tottenham stating that the game will not take place. European football's governing body must determine the fitness of Tottenham's squad, plus the extent of the health guidance offered before making a ruling. Uefa's rules state that if clubs have 13 fit players on their A list, including a goalkeeper, they must play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like it will be one of those games where things just click and we put in a complete performance.

filbertway Posted 9 December 2021 Share Posted 9 December 2021 I'm going for Evans to go off injured and a solid 4-6 goals conceded. Expectations are about as low as that Porto game where we got dicked 5-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
