| Spurs next 14:24 - Nov 9 with 963 views | Geordietown68 | Are spurs going to be a tougher prospect than Bournemouth yesterday? What system will we need . I'd give Akpom a go as 9 putting himself about . Think he's earned the chance emmerson needs a rest |  | | |  |
| Spurs next on 14:36 - Nov 9 | bsw72 | I'd start with the basics, go for 11 on the pitch and try to stop giving the ball away to the opposition in the last third of the pitch. |  | |  |

Yes but still think akpom will give their defence more physical threat to deal with He's earned it |  | |  |
| Spurs next on 16:30 - Nov 9 | billlm | I'd go similar to city 3 centre backs, We had chances against city and we will certainly have chances against spurs, if we can stop this silly let the opponent score in the first 15 minutes routine I believe there are points there for the taking, |  | |  |

I think the strategy is to stay compact & try to take the heat out of the game. If Spurs aren't getting anywhere after 30 minutes the crowd will get restive. But our attack is better than our defence so trying to put 10 men behind the ball seems a poor strategy. |  |

| Spurs next on 18:51 - Nov 9 | GlasgowBlue | I said before Bournemouth that we should play the same system that we did at City. I think we have to now. |  |

| Spurs next on 20:16 - Nov 9 | Ruby | Palacios's fantastic recent form has coincided with a gradual drop off in team performance. I think you could make the case that he's currently too deep too often, and taking on too much. I'd like to see him furthest forward in a central 3, using his half-turn and clever passing to play Enciso / Emerson in closer to the opposition back line. We did it in the first 10 mis on Sunday - playing a few clever passes in between defenders on the edge of their box - then Palacios dropped deeper and deeper and all our nice passing was happening on the halfway line. Maybe not all the time, but you could go something like; -- O'Shea --- Diop --- Greaves -- Outtara -- Lukic -- Florentino -- Davis ---------------- Palacios ---------------- ------ Emersonn ---- Enciso ------ Play a bit higher up the pitch. Lukic and Florentino are more than capable of covering when Leif and Outtara go on the outside. |  | |  |
