Little stronger but still going with the “squad” players

Barnes for Foster and we would have a half decent team

Churlinov not even on the bench after last weeks display even with a depleted squad. Definitely hasn’t took his chance yet

VK reckons he hasn’t cover for Zaroury,he happen should try Maatsen on the wing.

Neither is Taylor.
And I wouldn't call the squad depleted, anything but.

Harsh to drop Taylor thought he did well enough for a bench spot at least. Would definitely have Muric there. Wish he would just go for the kill here.

I’ve been wanting us to really go at teams all season. Not a criticism, just how good I think we are.

I’m still adamant that someone is going to take a hell of a beating!!

I really hope VK doesn’t play these games next Tuesday.
Got a feeling he will play a second string, why wouldn’t he? 2 games on the trot now.
If he does and fails to get them fired up we will be in the end of one.
I am starting to think VK has been swayed by the speculation surrounding him.

So the impact of being linked with the Spurs job is to play more squad players? Even by the standards of this board that’s a fair old leap!

It's about finding out where the squad players are at. I'm sure VK knows what Charlie Taylor offers.

We still got VK doubters this late into the season?

He's not daft, he knows exactly what the derby entails.

:lol: come on, he’s already said he wants to see his squad! Brownhill is currently injured, as is Tella. It’s literally the perfect chance to see the likes of Twine and Foster with a run of games. I think after what Kompany has done he has more than earned these few games and it’s absolutely nothing to do with any speculation. As for B@stards game, it will 100% be the best available 11.

More swayed by the need to assess a few players who haven't played regular.
It's going to be a BIG summer. As he has already said he needs to know what these players are capable of now, July would be too late.
Why can't you just accept what he has said, instead of putting 2 and 2 together..........

Taking our foot off the gas and making five subs is really annoying in fact it’s the only thing annoying with this team, I wish we’d copy that Pep mentality of never stop relentlessly attacking to score more

Happy to see Twine and Foster get another start because we need to see them consistently on the field as we look ahead to next season.
Players perform better the more games they play and a good performance from both or one of them tonight will be very encouraging.

Extra condensed Championship schedule + cup runs probably mean we look to manage legs more

Glad to see Twine getting another go. I thought he played well last game and at least was taking shots in dangerous areas even if they were all blocked.

I agree. Kompany was also pleased with his performance judging by his comments post game.

A good line up. Fancy us to take the 3 points tonight. One interesting point is no THB in the stsrting line up.

Good to see the whole squad is being used.

This is good for players like Foster and Twine.

Hoping for a better result than Saturday though :lol:

Didn’t Ekdal trigger a payment close recently due to unexpectedly quickly achieving a certain number of appearances?

Or perhaps he is one appearance away from that trigger point?

VK has earned the tight to rotate if he wishes, and it's the only way he'll see whether some are up to it or not.

Good to see Maatsen and Zaroury back as they should massively improve our creativity.

More than useful options off the bench as well which could be important in the later stages if it's tight.

I think it is understandable to play AD ahead of THB who is on loan and has had a long break thru injury

I’ve not heard that - I hope it’s not true.

Hardly the best way to work with other clubs which you may need to deal with again in the future.

Are my eyes wonky?
Pretty sure a player I didn't recognise was warming up with the squad had the number 34 on his shorts.
We don't have a squad number 34.

Any ideas who this is?
