Spurs build up thread

[spud_gun]

meh...field the under 7's for this game. We've got bigger fish to fry.

[wiw]

So then, maybe:

Cavalieri

Degen
Arbeloa
Hyypia
Insua

El Zhar
Lucas
Plessis
Pennant

Babel

N'Gog

Rest all the "first teamers" for Saturday.

although I'd play another youngster at CB, **** Pennant off, play Babel left and Pacheco off N'Gog

So you dont agree with him at all

So then, maybe:

Cavalieri

Degen
Agger
Hyypia
Insua

El Zhar
Lucas
Alonso/Mascher
Babel

Kuyt
N'Gog

Rest all the "first teamers" for Saturday.

I think we should still try and make things difficult for Spurs, the young players need experienced players in the team IMO to lead them and Agger needs games. I'd play Alonso or Mascher depending on who plays on saturday (who are we playing on saturday?).

Kuyt upfront to help out N'Gog, make space for him. Bring Torres on for the last 30 to give him some gametime.

So you dont agree with him at all

well almost

[blacky]

I'd give Torres 60 mins to get his match fitness and sharpness back before next weekends trip to Bolton.

Apparently only Plessis, El Zhar and Insua from the reserves were called into the first team preparations. The others are with the reserves preparing for their game.

Just seen elsewhere that Darby didn't play for the reserves today, so with Arbeloa being banned soon, he may have been called in as cover.

Looking forward to our youngsters and reserves raping their first team :rockon:

This is the team that played Pompey today, no Darby involved, so it's possible he will figure on Wednesday

Bouzanis; Mendy, Ayala, San Jose, Kelly; Crowther, Spearing, Irwin, Weijl; Pacheco, Flora.

I still think Degen will start, he definitely needs the minutes.

[Joe King]

I would like to see Torres starting and get 50/60 mins. Looking at the reserves team, its clear that Darby will have some part.

Team: Cavalieri, Darby, Arbeloa, Hyypia, Dossena, Plessis, Lucas, El Zhar, Babel, N'Gog, Torres

Plessis has been crap in the reserves and doesn't deserve a start if you ask me.
