Spuds at Home

[BWFC_Insane]

I've been strangely calm all season.

Before games......

[mullayo]

Aaron Lennon is a doubt after picking up a knock late in the 2-0 win over Blackburn.

Scott Parker and Louis Saha are struggling for full fitness. Ledley King has familiar knee concerns.

Spurs will definitely be without Niko Kranjcar (knee), Tom Huddlestone (ankle), Michael Dawson (ankle), and Benoit Assou-Ekotto (shoulder).

Squad: Friedel, Cudicini, Gomes, Rose, Gallas, Khumalo, Walker, Kaboul, King, Nelsen, Livermore, Sandro, Parker, Bale, Lennon, Dos Santos, Modric, Defoe, Adebayor, Saha, Van der Vaart, Lancaster, Luongo.


I hear/read Parker won't play (phew), King probable, Lennon probable (phew)

Likley line up:
------------------Friedel----------------------
-----------King------------Kaboul--------------
Rose--------------------------------------Walker
-------------Sandro--Modric---------------------
Lennon-----------RVV---------------------Bale
---------------Adebeyor------------------------

Very swashbuckling but not so hot at the back with Rose, Kaboul and Walker not the best

[mullayo]

NRC good to go apparently. Eagles still hamstrung a bit but we will probably be:

-------------Bogdan------------------
Boyata----Wheater--Ream---Ricketts
---------------------------------
Eagles-----Mavies--NRC---------Petrov
-------------N'Gog--SKD-------------

Subs: Jussi, Vela, Mears, Tuncay, Alonso, Riley etc.

Come on BWFCi, be a man and admit it. All season you've been pessimistic, angry, paranoid and doom-laden. "Strangely calm" is about directly opposite.

Put them under pressure at the right times, make sure any chances are taken advantage of, and for fecks sake stay awake at the back. In a sense we're lucky we don't *have* to win, so in theory OC wont have us over-committing up front and be caught on the break by the likes of Bale & Lennon. The reality is that they'll catch us on the break from the halfway line anyway!

Won't believe a word of these injuries till the game's over.

Do you believe our ones? Steinsson? Pratley? Both seem a bit fishy to me.

[mrpiccollo]

if parker lennon and saha are out thats bloody great new for me as without parker they are much more likely to concede and without lennon much less likely to score typically they will play out of their skins regardless though so we have a tough match i just pray we can get something today

1 point = great
3 points = dreaming
a loss = dire

[Dave Sutton's barnet]

Against a 4-4-2, they don't need Parker if they've got Sandro and Modric. Lennon would be much the bigger miss. So, fingers crossed.

[ohjimmyjimmy]

Sandro looks a bit of a beast.

Nah,actually they will probably play like against Blackburn,so right back - Walker,left back - Rose.

Yikes.

[mrpiccollo]

the more i look at that totenham lineup the more worried i get about todays match , i agree sandro is a beast and with modric Vdv in the midfeild area we will struggle to contain lennon and bale hopefully one will be missing, and rose isnt as bad as people make him out to be but im much happier about him playing over asso ekotto as i rate him very highly (i actually think hes the reason bale looks good most of the time)

No offence but...there exists no amount of sore-bottom cream in the world big enough to ease the bumming we would get from that.

Calm and resigned to our fate as opposed to "nervous about the forthcoming match"......

I put a lot of stock in PhysioRoom being correct with their Premier League Injuries Table as it's a big pull for their site, so its current Spurs listing gives me hope:

http://www.physioroom.com/news/english_ ... _table.php" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

A Lennon Ankle/Foot Injury no return date
S Parker Calf/Shin Injury no return date
B Assou-Ekotto Dislocated Shoulder no return date
L Saha Groin Strain no return date
N Kranjcar Knee Injury no return date
Gomes Cartilage Knee Injury no return date
M Dawson Ankle/Foot Injury 6th Jun 12
D Bentley Knee Injury no return date
J Jenas Ruptured Achilles 5th Jun 12

It's no absolute of course, but I'd be surprised if Lennon or Parker start.

[Salford Trotter]

I'll hopefully see Fab in the Player's Lounge tonight

I know where you're at, it's much calmer when you're expecting nowt.

Would be ok by me given what's available. COYWM
