    Yes, the other events out of the top of my head being Gray missing a sitter at home to Palace, Hughes giving away a penalty at Sheff Utd, conceding a stupid free kick in the dying seconds at Villa Park and Mariappa’s og at Brighton, all of which at least in theory got us relegated. Then there are combinations of results, eg losing 12-0 on aggregate to Man City and failing to get even a point in very winnable/drawable games like Everton, Burnley and Southampton at home, Southampton, Palace, Burnley, West Ham and Arsenal away…

    I think we're going into the break with 3 points!

    Expecting Cathcart, Kabasele and Masina to all come back in. The hopeless Sema moving into midfield made bearable by our sweet Colombian prince starting on the left.

    Can Sissoko play today or not ?

    Thought he hadn’t signed in time ..

    The losing 3-2 from 2-0 against Everton was a massive one. The defending from Cathcart in that one was unforgiveable.

    Surely Cathcart won’t start over Ngakia or Femenia?

    Sissoko is there with the team according to Wobby Ryan.

    I'm sure The Safe will come in handy today.

    Good ******* God why are Cathcart and Masina still the full backs.

    Rest of the team looks good.

    Happy with that with the exception of the full backs.

    Quite good, strange that Kiko isn't even on the bench though.

    Well I didn't expect to see Kucka or Sissoko! Danny Rose really should be there though, Masina (much as I like him) has been a disaster so far.

    King in for Sema, Kucka back from injury, Sissoko starts - decent line up.

    Defence still looks a bit shaky but at least Sierralta is back.

    Would have liked to have seen Cucho start a Prem game for the first time, but with King and Dennis in I'm not really complaining. Happy that Kucka is deemed fit and that Sissoko is joining him, although I'm still a little confused about Cathcart. Is Kiko not deemed fully fit or something? All I can think of!

    Apart from the full backs that line up is beautiful. We could nick the 3 points here.

    Can kind of understand why Rose hasn't been included, he just played 90 mins midweek after not playing for ages, I suppose it might be more suitable to ease him into action

    Decent side overall and glad Kucka is back. Masina and Cathcart? But to be fair who else do we have? Rose is pretty decent but needs more game time, Kiko is still out and Kabs is penalty prone.
    I just hope we have enough in midfield to stifle their attacks.

    I do think that RB will have to be our main deadline week priority.


    That midfield....

    Hopefully Sissoko has some insight into how Spurs will play. That line-up looks good, apart from full-backs. Guessing Rose isn't match-fit, which is understandable. We desperately need to sign a right-back.

    Would rather see Chalobah on the bench than Cleverly. Hopefully he signs a new contract!

    Central midfield and front 3 suddenly look really good

    The worry is of course the fullbacks, Son and Bergwign gonna have fun today

    Lovely midfield and forward line. Unfortunately I fear our full backs will cost us any points today.

    Can Dennis play LW as I assume we will be in a 4-5-1 when they have the ball and it turns into a 4-3-3 on the counter and King will be down the middle.

    More room on the bench without Troy.

    In a physical and a psychological way I presume you mean.
