Bournemouth vs Tottenham 12:30pm Saturday Sky Sports 1

Sugarlumps

Ah Jack Wiltshire, hardest man in Britain only second to Danny Dyer.

I've not seen anything of Bournemouth, look strong at home. We did wop them 5-1 last season. Whilst I wouldn't be expecting a repeat performance, I do expect all three points.

DubPerryman

It will be interesting to see the response to the match on Tuesday.

Either the players come flying out of the traps because Poch gave them a bollocking or their confidence is dented and the performance will be as bad as the second half on Tuesday.

2nd Row Donkey

I expect a scrappy, torrid game with lots of huff and puff and little else.

An error or referee mistake will probably settle it one way or another.

We're due a defeat so I'm not very optimistic about this. No Toby away from home is a tricky prospect as Bournemouth are no mugs. We looked knackered in Germany during the week. Poch needs to heavily rotate for us to get anything from this.

Nice to see Dembele in from de start.

Man I really miss my laptop and having the option of watching us on a stream.

I'm stuck with sky sports and pundits Jamie redknapp and dim Sherwood who have been w@anking themselves silly spouting sh1te about jack Wilshire non stop since the program began.

Coys we need win this one.

Fancy victor to smash Wilshire and hopefully Danny rose scoring a belter to edge it for us

That's what the mute button is for.

let's hope Dier is up to the task this time. Poch should have dropped either Lamela or Eriksen due to poor form and fitness and should have Nkoudo on the bench.

Sissoko is bringing SFA at the moment.

Great to see Beast in the starting line up.

Looking forward to seeing how dembele and victor get on.will get a win here. 2-1 I think.coys

davycc

Dembele winning an impossible ball back

Sugarlumps

Wanyama could do with having a yellow free day.

Jeepers, great save Hugo. Lively opening few minutes.

davycc

Wonder save from Hugo

Sugarlumps

Ah those short corners, why?

So we can be sh*t at the short ones too.

2nd Row Donkey

outrageous bit of skill there for Dembele was it?

Jason 5pu45

What has gone in Lamelas head the last few games.making countless rash challenges.

Sugarlumps

Great attempt by Lamela, then goes and spoils it with a rash tackle. Wouldn't be surprised to see him walk.

2nd Row Donkey

V earlier for Lamela to be getting booked.

DubPerryman

I wish Poch would take Lamela off after he gets a stupid yellow. Lamela has to learn.

I live players getting stuck in but Lamela's yellows always seem to be in pointless areas of the pitch - brain dead.

Sugarlumps

Bournemouth much the better team, I don't fancy Son as a striker today. Janssen would of been my preferred choice.

Sugarlumps

Both our full backs have been very quiet going forward.

davycc

Close from Eriksson

Jason 5pu45

We are easily one of the poorest teams from set pieces that I've seen this season.we hardly ever look threatening from corners especially without Toby

Sugarlumps

Son is not taking up a natural strikers position, how's he to score out wide?

Sugarlumps

Home side bossing it, winning the majority of 50/50's.

Jason 5pu45

Lads dembele is almost on his own stifling Bournemouth attack after attack.the man is so vital to us.

Sugarlumps

Get Lamela off, he's going to cost us.

2nd Row Donkey

how is Lamela still on pitch.

DubPerryman

Lamela off at half time, get Janssen on.

MonkieSocks

we giving away too many cheap yellow cards.

No focal point of our attack either

Sugarlumps

Pochettino has he's work cut out, dismal first half performance. Were winning at picking up pathetic needless yellow cards.

davycc

Fubb off lamela you donkey..

We are totting up stupid stupid bookings' badly

MonkieSocks

Wonder if we will fade in the second half.

Our full backs have had put in any decent balls into the box

2nd Row Donkey

I'll take a 0-0 and all 11 men still on the pitch at full time.

Lamela just has to come off or we will lose this game. No way he can last about 15 mins without a booking nevermind 45 mins

Jason 5pu45

I still do not understand how lamela was picked to start.he has been off form for some time now

Jason 5pu45

Great touch eriksen.Bournemouth can't keep the same pressure this half.

Sugarlumps

60 minutes in, Boruc untroubled.

Ormus

I came on here to say Lamela shoulda been taken off instead of Son, I notice you all came to that conclusion about half an hour ago.

MonkieSocks

Arter having a good game, bossing it,

Sugarlumps

Pattern of play hasn't changed much, Sissoko and Winks worth a pop.

MonkieSocks

This has nil nil written all over it, unless someone scores :rolleyes:

Sugarlumps

Lamela still on, unreal.

Ormus

Dele and Son going off drastically reduces our goal scoring potential. Prove me wrong boys.

Jason 5pu45

Jansen is gonna do it.he has to.it's all set up for him!!!

He'll probably score the winner now:P

MonkieSocks

Stupid by Sissoko

The Talking Bread

Harry Arter making hard man Wanyama look like Billy Elliott out there.

MonkieSocks

Vetrs magic block

DubPerryman

Saw the ref's view of the Sissoko elbow - surprised he didn't see red!
