It’s been a quiet weekend so far, but today there are three matches that are of interest to Tottenham Hotspur fans. First, new Spurs signing Victor Wanyama and his beloved Kenya team play at Zambia in a African Cup of Nations qualifier that pretty much isn’t televised outside of Africa, but hey, Tottenham.
There are six more Hotspurs in World Cup qualifying action on Sunday, and unfortunately they’re both on at the same time. Christian Eriksen and Denmark host Armenia in Copenhagen, and that’s great for Eriksen-sen-sen he’s our number 23.
But the big match for most of us will be Big Sam Allardyce’s first match in charge of the England setup. He’s heading to Slovakia with five Tottenham players in tow: Harry Kane, Dele Alli, Eric Dier, Danny Rose, and Kyle Walker. Early reports are Alli is starting the match on the bench. FFS Big Sam, start ALL the Tottenham players on the bench!
This is your open thread for these games and any other you’d like to talk about. Tottenham Hotspur players in the England setup. Didn’t we just finish with this stuff? Ban international football.
