Fingers crossed Mason makes the bench - thinks that's the best we can hope for.

I know most people will go for Njie on the left, but I'd push Dembele up here and he could slot in to make a three at times to give us more control - they'll be bang up for this despite the fact they have injury problems as welll.

Think Njie might be better as a bench option for this one.

That attacking 3 looks horrible to me, do not like seeing Dembele in it as we know he will neither assist nor score with any regularity, it just wastes a player imo.

My worry is that our front 4 is piss easy to defend. Sit back, nobody's gonna run behind and restrict the space. Then counter.

Such an obvious way to beat us. We desperately need Son back to create space and just make our attack a little bit less predictable

It will look different when we have full backs who actually attack effectively.

Do agree, losing Son was a massive blow and we look predictable without him at the moment.

I'm just picking the most solid side I can think of, and hope that our full backs can provide the width and Kane can start converting chances.

dreading this game, predicting a typical tottenham performance after a europa league game

I would like to see Onomah given some game time in the league. He's sure as shite better than Dross.

That kid hasn't improved since day dot.

The thing is Onomah isn't a LW or any type of winger. He needs to be in the middle so that he can impact the game. He is similar to Pogba but he his best asset is the ability to find through balls. If you want a winger, there isn't anyone at the club or currently in the youth team who is near ready

Another one for Onomah, I genuinly think he'll perform better in an attacking midfield role than Clinton/Dembele/Townsend. He's not a youth player, he's ready, just need the opportunity.

Would really love Mason to be fit, think we need his movement.

Think this has a lot of promise though...

Walker Alderweireld Vertonghen Rose
Dier Alli
Dembele Lamela Eriksen
Kane
Would have Onomah on the bench to bring on as early as possible if we're infront, and hopefully give Mason 20-30 minutes.
