    Kyle Walker

    He's been incredible. It was a huge huge mistake though, which he is capable of, but ultimately there isn't much better in the whole league than walker.

    Lamela deserves to be dropped? This place.... Personally, I'd drop Alli. Give him a rest. Dier dembele, son, written, Lamela behind Kane. Gives us a much stronger bench too. As for today. I'd agree with the original post. Except rose. Who i thought was our weakest player. Still not seeing what...

    Goal Difference

    Not true. We've just put West Ham in that bracket

    Mousa Dembele

    Yep. Man of the match. AGAIN. I know I've ribbed you a few times @gutterboy but are you the type of fan of who admits their mistakes? Or are you blindly stubborn and refuse to change your opinions? Admit it. Dembele is playing at an incredible level and one of the best players in our team...

    *** Tottenham Hotspur vs West Ham United OMT ***

    Agree on both fronts - what would happen if mason started and the son should most definitely start. Really hope we can win, the league is bonkers this year and if we can keep on going we can really start to dream.

    Alex Pritchard

    Even when Townsend "broke in" I thought he looked pretty bad, it was completely overblown because of England performances, but he didn't look great to me, ever since, he's looked worse and worse and worse. He's direct. That's the only positive, but he has an awful shot, average cross, no real...

    *** Tottenham Hotspur vs West Ham United OMT ***

    Wimmer? Gutter boy you're bonkers :) Obviously the same team as Arsenal with a replacement for Lamela. You'd have to be crazy not to use song. I fear mason.... I fear he'll play mason, he'll give the ball away all the time, we lose no my hatred for him will just grow me grow. We need son in...

    Eric Dier

    He provided for England what Spurs needed too, defensive protection from midfield. Amazing to see the two of them last night. But Hodgson isn't brave enough for that so expect to see Milner, henderson and Delph in there for the euros.

    The Defensive Midfielder

    Oh it's a boring argument. People reluctance to admit things is funny. Listening to Mabbutt on spurs show, he called Dier a holder too. Watching England last night, if you don't think Dier is a defensive minded midfielder , sorry to resort to this, but you are utterly beyond clueless and there's...

    The Defensive Midfielder

    But I have never said bentaleb and Mason didn't play deeper, I said they weren't good enough, hence the need for a proper DM. It's other people who seem to think our tactics have changed dramatically.

    Eric Dier

    I'm so glad we promoted him to being our DEFENSIVE midfielder ;) Saved our season

    The Defensive Midfielder

    There is more to being. Defensive midfielder than tackles. It is about protection. It is about being strong/aggressive. It is bout primarily sitting in front of the back 4. It is about helping out the centre backs. Usually includes keeping play simple in the passing. AS for heat maps... Really...

    The Defensive Midfielder

    I nwv3r said he was a bad tackler. I never used it as a negative, but as an observation, and yeh, they do look simple passes to me, not a bad thing. As for "in my day" I bet I'm a hell of a lot younger than you scara. As for the Arsenal stat, we dominated pretty ,I have the whole game, what's...

    The Defensive Midfielder

    , so I see you're very stubborn when you're proven wrong. The FACTS are: Dier is a defensive minded player, he primarily sits in front of the defence, his main skills are tackling, intercepting, playing it simple to the closest player to him. With him in the team even mason looked good and...

    The Defensive Midfielder

    Sorry I don't think I was clear enough, it was my way of saying no I don't think we did, but because dembele isn't the same as be taken and mason. I guess I'm saying the players in those positions change the way we play, I think if bentqleb and mason started together again it would be a...

    The Defensive Midfielder

    He is obviously a fantastic one, but however much you'll refuse to admit it, he is a defensive midfielder, there to protect the defence, not engage in the attack as much. You're blind or in denial of you can't see that.

    The Defensive Midfielder

    No because Dembele is a bazillion times better than Mason and bentaleb (slight exaggeration). And Alli is too. Fact is bentaleb and mason are just both tidy players with no real strengths in my eyes, I think they'd both improve next to a more DM minded player as I think they both offer more in...

    The Defensive Midfielder

    I know exactly how we played (and now it didn't work). You're missing the point. We're playing this way BECAUSE of Dier, not an explicit tactical shift. As Jordimho said, when Dier didn't play, we didn't work in the same way, if it was tactical we would. Was it scara who made out DMs were a...

    The Defensive Midfielder

    Hmmm, I'm with parklane, I don't see this as a tactical shift from poch, just much more balance in the players in that position. Bentaleb and Mason could play together and it'd be the same as last season - no protecting the defenders, not linking to the attack and NI,lifting each other's...

    Ratings vs the Ar5e

    Loris - 6 - some good saves, but didn't command his box like he usually does and should have saved the goal Walker - 8 - amazing performance, seems to not be as brain farty, this more mature Walker is great, defensively solid, still a threat in attack Toby - 7 - A few wobbles but generally solid...
