After the heroics and storming 2nd half performance on Wednesday night, we must now focus on another massive battle at White Hart Lane this Saturday. Pompey travel on the back of a 5-0 home thrashing against Carlo Ancelottis title chasers and will be determined to repair the pride and reputation of the leagues bottom placed club. It is somewhat cliche but every game we go into is now a cup final and nails will be well and truly bitten between now and the end of the season. Vedran Corluka may well miss out after picking up a knock in the Fulham game and it will be interesting to see who 'Arry picks from Pav and Gudjohnson up front after the performance of both in midweek.The midfield is the most interesting area for me after the return of Bentley and Huddlestone. Which four will Redknapp pick with Modric, Kranjcar, Palacios and Bale also in contention. Thudd may well return and cause Kranjcar or Modric to start the game on the sidelines. I would prefer us to use the width and crossing of Bentley leaving Thudd and one of the Croatians on the bench. A win will give us a 7 point advantage over Liverpool with 7 games to play!
With all of this to take into account, here is our predicted line-up:
Gomes
Assou-Ekotto
Assou-Ekotto
Dawson
Bassong
Kaboul
Bale
Palacios
Modric
Bentley
Gudjohnson
Crouch

Im going for 2-0 Spurs and think Bentley will start alongside Wilson, Luka and Bale in midfield. COYS
ReplyDelete'Arry will be crazy to start Palacious in this match. If he could dare start Kaboul ahead of him against a more powerful Stoke, there is no reason why he won't do the same now that THudd is back. The way I see, 'Arry is going to manage Wilson's yellow situation till he goes away on April 11.

ReplyDeleteI am afraid we are getting complacent here. Everytime we get complacent, we lose. I think we will lose 1-2. Let's hope not. But it is a fact that usually happens as a 20 years worth of spurs fan.
