Wonder if Ndombele might get a chance considering that Skipp and Lo Celso should be unavailable.

 

[Havre]

To predict the Spurs line-up is quite difficult, but I think Nuno has to play Ndombele or Winks. He can shuffle things around to avoid that going 3-4-3 for example, but it would be very odd playing Alli as a no. 6 just to avoid playing Ndombele or Winks.

Personally, I think Winks will play in Skipp's role (just the easiest with a "like for like" replacement), but I would love it if Ndombele stepped up and really gave it his best (with Højbjerg playing the deeper role). Even if he ends up playing poorly.

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

Sounds like everybody will be ready to face Chelsea at least.

[Havre]

Yeah. For starting line-up that is fine. Bench will be fairly short though.

Would be a huge boost for Spurs if you could win a game with quite a few changes.

 

[Brunkmeister]

Time to get your weekend destroyed yet again. Last weekend was a relief.

Who's PEH and can we please stop doing that?

 

[Chimaera]

One plus is the Liverpool England contingent didn't play the last matchday. Phillips went all 90. That's a small solace, but at least one to grab.

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

Pierre-Emile Højbjerg.

Brazilian FA asks FIFA to block Liverpool, Man Utd, Man City, Leeds and Chelsea from selecting Brazilian players from September 10-14

The players who were not released for the World Cup qualifiers against Argentina and Peru are Raphinha of Leeds, Manchester United's Fred, Thiago Silva at Chelsea, Manchester City's Ederson and Gabriel Jesus, as well as Alisson, Roberto Firmino and Fabinho at Liverpool.

Had a really great international break....Hopefully, the clubs don't ruin anything!

I am just hoping for a goal at this point, but knowing us it will end in a scoreless draw.

You really think we can keep a clean sheet? I like your optimism Watch Arteta start with Holding - Mari at CB when having White and Gabriel back.

I like that Gil is likely going to get a chance to start early in the year. Very excited to see him.

Gonna watch the bolded hopefully as they're all at different times, skipped the internationals minus the mistake one watching the England v Poland snooze-fest so it's good to have some games back before the next international break comes and ruins it.

Not exactly sure why the Premier League decided to put so many of the games on the Saturday 3 PM GMT kickoff, one of those could've been moved to Sunday after the Liverpool game. Brentford v Brighton for example, not like either of those teams have a UEFA fixture in midweek.

I'm return for a gaurantee of releasing the players in October *IF* things change re: quarantine on return.

So, in other words, the nations in question either got strong armed or totally rolled over.

Yes I saw that too. Hard to argue otherwise. Gives until October to try and them exemptions? I guess?

It had to be him.

Going to a local meetup to watch Spurs tomorrow, get my 730am drink on.
