Happy new year everyone and hoping for a better 2021!

Lee Kang In — Valencia go to Granada at 11 AM on BeIN - LKI unlikely to start and we will see if he even makes the squad. Winter window should be interesting but not anticipating a move still. Perhaps a cameo off the bench to either convince him to stay or to showcase him ahead of the window.
Son Heung Min — POSTPONED - Tottenham host Fulham at 1 PM on NBCSN - Well that was painful. A point away vs a decent side normally a tolerable result in congested part of schedule but the way in which Tottenham played was awful. The starting XI was worrisome and my fears played out with no true passers in midfield: meaning Son and Kane were isolated up top. Every build up was so slow and Wolves were tactically setup to handle that with Son and Kane doubled or fouled every time they got the ball around the halfway line. With both wingbacks unable to complete a pass and the rest of the team overly willing to pass backwards, Son got so few touches again on a day when they had chances in the rare times they got forward. Son couldn’t handle the physicality and shifting wider in the second half only took him further deeper rather than more in control. Awful match for Tottenham and watching Son be smothered by such an unimaginative attack is sad. Should start but changes have to be made.
