Controversial perhaps, but it makes sense to me.

I quite like the idea of Bernardo playing further forward with Bong behind.
I would also go with Andone and save Murray for Newcastle as realistically it offers more chance of a point/s although the Geordies are on a rich vein of form.

I'd probably start with Glenn tomorrow night, Spurs have some tall physical forwards, but dependant on how the game is going maybe replace him with Andone if the game opens up

I really don't like the idea of playing two full backs on the same side (and not just for us, I never have).
If you want to play defensive wide midfielders, of those available, I would go March and Izzy. If you want top play more attacking wide players, Locadia or AJ. From that tactical change mid season, CH has been playing one of each (one winger, one attacking wide player).
But I think he'll revert to a more defensive Solly and Izzy (even though Izzy isn't 100%, he's better defensively that Jurgen or AJ).
I would think Kayal for Propper, Montoya for Bruno will be the only changes.

Spot on! Amazing how we keep a clean sheet and get a point and then many on here want players dropped. I think they earned the shirt on Saturday, so Izzy & March are certainties.

I´m getting so tired of seeing Murray as a striker when we know we will play ultra defensive with basically 9 defenders (+1 goalie). We need a solid target player who can fetch the long balls and control the ball until we have enough players to start an attack. Or have a striker who can actually run and put some pressure.
Murray is definitely not a target player. He has zero ball control and loses all duels. His strongest abilities are in the penalty area. But that doesn't help when we don't have players who can get the ball there...
I would probably pick Andone tomorrow. I also want to see Kayal from start - think he was one of the few who played OK last Saturday.
Murray would be a better option against Newcastle.

Murray is important in defending corners and we get lots against us.
He is basically a set piece defender.

Maybe true. But - we surely shouldn't pick a striker based on that he is an important player in defending corners? Target (as a striker) is to something useful on the other side of the pitch

No way should Murray start we may as well just stick him as a 3rd CB if he does , we need Andone right on Vertonghens shoulder and spin the pile of wood inside out , we got away with murder at wolves we won't be as lucky at Spurs unless we give them something to think about at the back , so my exclusive matchday team v Spuds is .

I have noticed many going with Bernardo as defensive left midfield.

I’d be very surprised if Murray starts tomorrow, surely he will be rested ahead of Newcastle. Andone to play v Spurs.

It doesn’t matter does it, any combination will get beat. Rest some players for Newcastle probably
