I never claimed any fact other than you can listen to the interview Poch gave after the game on SkySports. He wasn't rested, he was just not picked.Kitchen?

It's like they have both finally realised their place in the football world.Everton- Spurs s**tfight, a new era for bigfooty!
I think I preferred AC as a Chelsea fan
On Vertonghen being dropped, I think there’s a problem there after listening to Poch’s interview after the game.
I dunno about Sánchez, quite a few errors still in him. But Verts is on the decline now, although he’s still pretty decent. Our defence will need rebuilding after this season I reckon, it’s not what it was a couple of seasons agoIs he past his best now? I reckon Sanchez / Toby your #1 CB combo now.

Plenty of surplus defenders at United.Are both Toby & Vert out of contract at the end of the season? Not ideal if that is the case. You've splashed the cash this summer - would Levy do the same again on 2 CB's next year?
It was interesting that he said players have to show that they deserve it by working hard and that. Knowing that Pochettino and his assistants are meticulous to the point of being obsessive over players' GPS data at training, my guess is that Vertonghen has had a poor pre-season on the track and this is a message that just because he's a senior player who's been here a long time, he can't coast along.On Vertonghen being dropped, I think there’s a problem there after listening to Poch’s interview after the game.
Who knows how much we have in the coffers but I’d expect cash available again. There’s quite a few players who have expressed a desire to leave - Aurier, Rose, Eriksen and perhaps Vertonhen and Alderweireld, so that money would be reinvested plus what else we have on top of that. Lot of us thought the rebuild would come this summer but it didn’t really materialise. I think it’s better to do it gradually anyway as it keeps more continuityAre both Toby & Vert out of contract at the end of the season? Not ideal if that is the case.

Saying Verts was our best CD last season is factually correct, but I still see a slight decline. Maybe it was because the midfield wasn’t functioning as well last season which left the defence more exposed, but I still think at his age his best years are behind him. He is still more than capable of doing a good job but I think he will be used slightly more sparingly now. He may struggle to play twice a week for example.It was interesting that he said players have to show that they deserve it by working hard and that.

There seems to be a genuine change of mentality among Pochettino and co this season. I found it fascinating that he outright said that he's not satisfied with top 4 anymore and that along won't be a successful season.
Oh, Zidane98 not past his best at all. He was clearly our best defender last season imo and probably was the season before too.
No and No.Is he past his best now? I reckon Sanchez / Toby your #1 CB combo now.
