A letter from Football365, especially for my Tottenham supporting friends, Paul Stevens, Dennis Holte Albertsen, Nick Moxon, David Jordan ... pretty fair assessment I reckon !!! Tactics Tim Tim: Right Les, big game against Liverpool on Sunday, they are flying high and lots of people think they will spank us but I reckon we can cause em an upset. Any thoughts. Les: I like your thinking boss, did you see their game against Sunderland. Tim: Nah... Les: Me neither, but I was reading on the internet earlier and some bloke in the F365 mailbox reckons Sunderland did well by pressing Liverpool high up the pitch then dropping back into two solid banks of four whenever Pool crossed the halfway and looking to hit them on the break. Tim: Look Les, you know what I think of all this tactics guff, I wanted proper football advice, not some mumbo jumbo off the interweb. Also, what I have told you about reading... Les: But boss, Sunderland almost got something out of that game and I reckon if we used similar tactics with our better players we could could really snatch this win! Tim: Stop it Les, I wont warn you again mate. You and this bloke off the interweb have got it all wrong, the reason Sunderland almost got a point was because they tried really hard. We just have to try even harder than they did and we will be fine. Now, lets pick the team. GK has to be Lloris, agreed. Les: agreed Tim: Right, now for defense... defense... ah feck it, I hate defense, its so boring! Tell you what Les, you just pick any four of them, try to pick ones who are fit. Les: Alright boss Tim: Now for picking the front six, I like this bit. Well, lets see. Chadli, Sigi and Eriksen have all scored recently so they must be trying really hard right now so we better pick all of them. Les: Makes sense boss. Tim: I know Nabil really well so he has to play. We have to have at least one striker, I cant be dealing with any of this false 9 foreign muck, Ade is injured so lets go for Soldado. That leaves one place left but we have a problem. So far we dont have any English men in our team. Les: I was planning on picking a couple of the English lads for our defenders boss. Tim: Come on Les, you know defenders dont count! Right, one spot left, who can we play that is English. Well Lennon is English and so is Townsend. To be honest they have both been a bit crap this season but I know Aaron a bit better so I guess it will be him. We can always swap them on 60 minutes anyway. Done, this management lark is easy, time for some golf? Les: one thing boss, dont you think we should play a couple of our holding midfielders, maybe Dembele or Sandro, they are both pretty good and could really work well in this game. Tim: I would love to Les, but there is no space left. The others are trying really hard or are English or know me really well. I dont make the rules. Les: Hmmm, alright boss, its a bold line-up but I think it could work. Lennon and Chadli on the wings, Eriksen just behind Sodado, I reckon we could cause them problems. Tim: No no no, Eriksen has got to be on the wing. Les: You what? Tim: Think about it, he is our best player, but if we play him in the hole he will be up against Gerrard. Gerrard tries really hard and is really good and is English so Eriksen will get no joy against him there. Right, unless you have any more bright ideas Les I am off to play golf! Oscar THFC, Geneva
