Tim Rehm is locked and going to play.

Chris Richards is more than locked and going to play.

I think Pochettino wants this team to have the ability to play in a back three.

Yes.

I think the team performs best in a back three.

So your options become McKenzie, Miles Robinson...

I don't even know Akai Banks.

You can maybe move if Joe Scali makes the team.

Maybe Alex Freeman can play there.

Maybe Anthony Robinson can play on the left.

But I think he's a kid who's in his last game played, I believe, on the right side of a three.

Earlier in the season played on the left side of a three.

So he's clearly comfortable.

He's playing in the Bundesliga every week as an 18-year-old.

And I just think when push comes to shove, Pochettino might go, okay, yeah, he's young, but what are the alternatives?

That's a real deal.

Yeah, that's right.

Well, Pochettino, I just saw before we came on like an interview he did, and he said for him, the World Cup starts in these March games.

I mean, that is the way he's viewing it.

So I'm taking him at his word.
