***OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Brighton, White Hart Lane, Sat April 18th, 5.30pm***

That's not a bad side. We have no options on the right so Porro, despite not being the quickest or trickiest is probably our best option there (or maybe switch him and Spence). I'd personally start Dom up top. I know he hasn't been great but he can make the ball stick better than Richi in my opinion. Richi is also terrible technically. Having one there and one on the bench gives us (in theory) an attacking threat off the bench.

Also, Pahlinha in the middle, while limited on the ball, at least provides a bit of bite and solidity that none of the rest do.

Richy is a better 'presser' so can see the logic, better in the air too so hopefully will get on the end of Porro's crosses. Simple really :cool:
Said earlier we need Spence to mark Mitoma or Minteh, stop them creating.
Palhinha to patrol the centre of the pitch and drop in front of the back 4 when Brighton have the ball to stop Welbeck getting involved. Gray next to him to pass to Xavi and go and create from there. That's what gets us the 3pts IMO.
If I see the same line up we had v Sunderland come Saturday evening I fear the worst.

Fair points. Don't agree on Richi/Dom but see the logic.

If he starts with RKM, Richi and Dom across the front again, RdZ should be sacked already. If that happens, I will start to believe that there is a big conspiracy to get us relegated driven by Vinai, Lange, Conor Gallagher and RdZ. No way anyone with any ounce of footballing nous could start that way again. And RdZ knows football.
 
I’m intrigued as to whether the atmosphere will be as united as Forest or as toxic as it was during the end of TF’s reign. Hopefully RdZ gets off to a winning start at home and the tide starts turning

We need the fans to believe we can win and get behind the players even if they don't believe we can. There appears to be some that have given up already judging by some on here. I fully get why they feel that way but there's still all to play for.

100%. It's bloody difficult I know given the brick we've been served up but we need to believe.

I see the players getting a lot of stick for weak mentalities. I've seen a bit of it from fans too. I know we haven't got much control over the situation but let's just believe and get behind the team from now until our fate is sealed. It can only help even if in a very small way. There's nothing to lose and the only thing fans gain now by saying "we're down" is the chance to say "I told you so" when we're in the Championship which can only be very scant consolation to anyone.
 
If we do not line up with this line up then we are screwed imo

Kinsky

Spence
Danso
VDV
Udogie

Grey
Bissouma

Porro

Can't be having Bissouma there, no defensive awareness. Other than that wouldn't argue with the team.
 
Saw that Lewis Dunk and the Brighton manager are banned for this game, that could hopefully be a game changer (prays)
Their entire squad, coaching staff, coach driver, youth academy, owner, gardener, chef and tea lady could be banned, but we'd still be fudged.

0-2
