It's extraordinary, but somehow feels like business as usual doesn't it?

Quite a poor choice of words from Ange here about Djed Spence in my very humble opinion ..

He was asked about Spence not playing after seemingly turning his career around.

"I don’t know about a major turnaround. I think a major turnaround is Djed playing regularly at this level, just because he has hung around doesn’t mean that is a major turnaround. I still think a lot of that is Djed continuing to train hard and wait for his opportunity. Fitness wise he is always in good condition. We train pretty hard. Could he start a game? I think he could. Could he start multiple games? Probably not because he hasn’t played for quite a while. He has been in and around the squad. Particularly between now and Christmas opportunities may come up for him, he almost got on at the weekend but the red card changed things a little bit. I think the key for Djed is he is still training well and his focus is there and just to be ready to take the opportunity when it comes."

Ange seems happy to run Porro into the ground though ..

I hear that Gray is in the squad for tonight so hopefully he starts and Porro is fresh for Sunday

I know this really shouldn't be a factor, but the club paid £40 million for the kid, and he really does look the business. I don't get why he's not playing more in the PL. Personally, I'd play him in midfield and take my chances with Spence at RB. I'm a little worried we'll run Sarr into the ground as much as Porro.

Agreed

I’d start both Spence and Gray

It will ruin my weekend if the chavs turn us over on Sunday

I probably will on the Sunday match thread!

Hopefully a win tonight and a draw on Sunday

Bastard Amazon are not doing a cheap deal for Prime for a week/month.

Just spent £8.99 to watch this game and Forest away on Boxing Day. So they better bloody win.

Any news on Solanke's fitness?

That’s what I pay every month but I buy a lot from Amazon so get free postage etc

I also listen to their music channel and watch their videos etc so I don’t think that it’s too exorbitant at £8.99 a month.

Commentators are usually shite though!

Shearer doing our game tonight!

He’s got a horrible droning boring voice!

I suppose that it could be worse with Alan Smith though!

 

[Ted the Yid]

Starting XI: Forster, Gray, Dragusin, Davies, Udogie, Sarr, Bissouma, Maddison (c),Kulusevski, Solanke, Johnson.

Substitutes: Austin, Pedro Porro, Spence, Reguilon, Bergvall, Olusesi, Werner, Son, Lankshear.

Alan Smith as a commentator. Something that makes no sense to me.

Especially on any of our games!

Solanke starting I’m pleased to see as is Porro on the bench and I hope that we don’t need him tonight

Wait, what? He's still on the team? I had no idea. This will not be an easy match but hopefully the Cherries come at us. Not likely as their manager isn't an idiot. Any win will do. COYS!

Rather hopefully a win today and sunday.

Of course but I’m not greedy!

 

[ClemFandango]

Apparently Ange made a fairly impassioned defence of Mikey Moore "only being 17" at the presser as well so I can only wonder if he's of the same mindset with Archie Gray being 18. Glad he's getting a run out tonight though.

I totally forgot as well.

I appear to have captions on Amazon and I can’t turn them off .. hhmmm

Try pausing it and a menu should come up at the bottom of the screen

I did that and tried to turn them off and it said subtitles weren’t available on a live feed!

I’m watching it on my other channel though and it’s fine.

Lively game and I thought Solanke could have scored earlier

 

[J.spurs]

FFS

 

[Havocc]

Wow, what a terrible goal to concede

 

[DMackay]

Udogie ffs

 

[The Cryptkeeper]

If we are the best team in the Premier League at anything, it’s conceding the first goal.

 

[ClemFandango]

We concede and I now have no subtitles .. go figure ..

 

[J.spurs]

Wow, what a terrible goal to concede

At least we can’t blame Vic
