***OMT: Mighty Spurs - Antwerpenpenpen***

[AdamB]

We now have Ndombele and GLC as our CM pairing

 

[Pirate55]

We will score. It is coming.

1-0. Wondrous long free kick from Bale. Good save from keeper but tap in from Vini.

Why has Jose made those three subs? Inexplicable. Bale, Vini and Winks off and unbelievably Kane, NDombele and Son on. What is he playing at ?......

 

[Rorschach]

Weird and unnecessary subs at this point.

 

[nayenezgani]

first channel he's found all night

Brilliant. Keep walking down to West Ham, Harry.

 

[thfcsteff]

These subs make no sense

I think it must be to keep them ticking over for the weekend? Perhaps they're used to a certain amount of football per week now, and perhaps 30 mins here means they avoid a longer warm-down afterwards?? Trust the manager time I suppose?

 

[awesome dawson]

I can only assume Bale, Winks, Vinicius etc. might be involved against Palace to save the 'main men' for Liverpool?

I wouldn’t underestimate Palace at Selhurt Park.

 

[awesome dawson]

No way should Kane or Son be on this pitch though.

 

[thfcsteff]

I wouldn’t underestimate Palace at Selhurt Park.

Agreed. Mourinho will go one game at a time and Palace will be ugly IMO. I'd take a 1-0 arse-deflected win!!!!

 

[nayenezgani]

I wouldn’t underestimate Palace at Selhurt Park.

I'm just trying to make sense of it, seems a pretty demoralising move otherwise.

For a man that is pragmatic, into the finest details, and plays the percentages...those 3 players sit down again when that goal goes in.

But he's the boss.

 

[JerusalemMan]

Nice for the fans who are there to see Kane, Son & NDombele on the pitch

 

[Rorschach]

Ref is a bit brick

 

[paxtonwolf]

Good save to be fair

 

[Yiddo]

Lucas is not happy at all.

I am going with the theory that there is some sports science stuff going, with regards to a certain amount of minutes per week to keep ticking over? Sissoko looks like he's coming on too. Sonny is just so good right now!

 

[billyiddo]

Nice for the fans who are there to see Kane, Son & NDombele on the pitch

Sissoko now too, worth the entry fee alone

 

[greatwhitenorf]

I'm going to go for Bale to break his free-kick drought tonight to win it

Very good call so far. Didn't score but made the goal and I can work with that.

 

[thfcsteff]

Sissoko to score!

 

[paxtonwolf]

Oh Harry.

Rather him miss them today though rather than Sunday or next Weds night

 

[Yiddo]

So all of the players coming on are guaranteed starters against Palace. I don’t get why they are on the pitch.
