Eriksen was on the right with Lamela central during the US tour which was interesting, have they swapped back now?

I do have a feeling that this summers pre season has been a bit 'meh'. Although I appreciate that it was hindered by the world cup and those players playing at the world cup. Lets be honest it will only take em a game or two to get them back match fit after only a couple of weeks off.

I thought we might see a team looking more like a starting 11. But I guess the WC players are not ready.
Encouraging signs - some fluid passing first half. But passing is not always as good as it should be and our closing down likewise.
Hopefully next game we see something like a first team. You'd think Hotlby, Capoue, Ade, Eriksen and Lloris would be starters, the rest....no idea.

I really do like the look of Bentaleb..big season for him coming up.

I prefer Holtby and think that he'll have the better season. I do think that Bentaleb has shown a lot of potential though.

Took a deflection but Lamela is certainly looking confident at the moment. I really believe that we'll see a lot from him this season.

Luka Modric
same i prefer the mobility and sudden burst of speed that holtby offers - just a bit more unpredictability

His confidence should be up at least. As a 22 year old, new to the PL, he needs to be feeling confident. He's still developing his skills.

I think you could forgive any Spurs fan for trying to see the best in Lamela. But even taking that into account, and even taking the quality of the opposition into account, he has looked like a damn fine player this pre-season.

The hardest part of the Spurs job - where our last managers failed - is identifying a first 11 from a lot of similar players and sticking with them.
I'm not sure Poch has had a chance to do that yet. Bar Ade, Eriksen, Lloris and Verts we're a collection of players that have great promise but have yet to really establish themselves. To stamp themselves on games and stake that 'first name on the team sheet' status. You need that to build confidence and grow. The hardest part of the Spurs job right now is settling on team and getting them to grow. Just too many options. At least this 25 man rule will help to some degree.
