English Football 2016-2017: NOW WITH 100% LESS FANERIO - Page 1271 - Sporting Events and Fantasy Sports

Having a friendly argument on facebook with a spurs fan about this. DDG's numbers have been amazing, but I think Heaton is probably most deserving of the spot.

He's number 1 in saves, massively clear of any of the other contenders (https://www.premierleague.com/stats/...?po=GOALKEEPER)

Joing 5th in clean sheets, despite playing for the worst team in PL history (https://www.premierleague.com/stats/...?po=GOALKEEPER)

And is first is save % according to NBC (http://scores.nbcsports.com/epl/play...p?category=107)

If Cahill had played in a flat 4 all season no way is he in the team.

Also have not watched enough Spurs to see how well Walker has been playing, is Moses not a shout for that position?

Sounds like Joe Gomez getting a start for Liverpool this weekend. Lovren our only fit CB.

Nope. I'm not even sure Moses is better than Trippier.

The one thing that stuck out from both games was, despite how even it was in all other areas of the pitch, how much better our full-backs were than Chelsea's.

For a combined Chelsea/Spurs team, I'd go:

Then there are only 1-2 players; Mane, Sanchez, Lukaku from other clubs worth considering.

Wait, you'd really go Costa over Kane?

Yep. I mean, it's really close and Costa is obviously having a dip now, but then Kane had one at the start of the season so recency bias, etc etc.

Goes back to the point I made about Costa scoring more often in tight games a few days ago. Plus, Kane has missed a chunk of the season through injury.

Got our centre backs in, have conceded less goals than anyone in the football league structure down to National League South so well deserved I guess. Now if we could just score some that'd be lovely

DDG nailed on.

Gone are the days where we could just cherry pick spurs' best players.

Holding played great for Arsenal. Playing with 3 CBs again is definitely worth considering.

He wouldn't be able to hold his ground in a midfield of only 2 players thou.
If spurs played some sort of 4-3-3 or a diamond midfield, sure.
In Spurs 5-2-3 line up? No way
