hilly,

What??? One bad game and Jerzey Dudek is out of your side??

He just needs to get his confidence back and we'll be right.

Go Reds!!

Kirkland has hardly put a foot wrong, it's time he was given a decent run in the side. Not so much to do with Dudek's form as it is Kirkland's application and obvious talent

Xie,

What about William Gallas in your defence? He has been a good player for you when given the opportunity.

What are you on? Hamman on the left? He's in the middle, honey. Stop getting your squad off websites.

No no no Jod ... Hamann certainly ain't a left sided player.

And i thought this first xi was based on a full fit squad? Why are some of my fellow bindippers chosing to leave Babbel out entire or say "Babbel when fit"?

And i thought this first xi was based on the squad as it stands now. Why is Topdon choosing to include Babbel when he isn't quite ready to go

 

[Voice of Reason]

Spurs Best
In a flexible 3-5-2 formation

Keller
King Richards Doherty
Carr Ziege
Davies Redknapp Poyet
Sheringham Keane

Subs:
Sullivan
Gardner
Bunjevcevic
Anderton
Iverson

Last 2 left out:
Acimovic
Thelwell

Assumptions:
All fit and able to play.
Don't need a "kicker" in midfield, so I've left Freund out.
Considered, but didn't, put the youthful left winger Etherington in for balance

 

[CURVE]

Matthew Glennon

Mark Birch, Lee Maddison, Peter Murphy, Lee Andrews

Michael Jack, John Slaven, Brendan McGill, Stuart Bell

Ritchie Foran, Trevor Molloy

Subs:
Peter Keen (Goalkeeper)
Michael Dickinson (Defender)
Will McDonoagh (Midfielder)
Brian Wake (Forward)

What are the odds of Marcus Babbel being in topdon's next avatar??

Babbel Hyppia (c) Henchoz Carragher

Owen Hesky

Bench: Kirkland, Traore, Diao, Diouf, Smicer

I apologise to Xavier and Baros.

Baros will definatly be in and out of my side throughout the season. Xavier would be a squad rotation player. I would also play myself up front when Owen was injured.
