Would love to see this. Apart from Aurier would be on the bench and i would expect Sanchez to start. Would really like to see Eriksen, Lamela, Lucas and Alli all starting.Lloris
Trippier Toby Jan Davies
Dier
Eriksen Lamela
Moura Kane Alli
Subs: Vorm, Sanchez, KWP, Dembele, Winks, Georgiou, Llorente
I'd do this but swap Eriksen into Dembele's spot and throw Lucas or Lamela up top into the 3.Hopefully Rose and Alderweireld are still in Pochettinos plans. We just cannot afford to let either go this month.
Need to go back to three at the back and in my opinion this is our best side (maybe a 100% Wanyama in for a Dier).
Good bench as well??
Vorm; Aurier, Davies, Winks, Lamela, Moura, Llorente

Sounds like Fulham have issues at CB. Ream and Mawson unavailable. Someone else banned. And another just returned to group. Jokanovic isn’t the clearest on names ?
Jury is out with Moura , we can only judge him if he plays in a run of consecutive games, so he must start.
To get the best out of Trippier he must play like he did in the WC, he is a better WB than RB plus i want to see Toby back, hence my selection is ...

Toby Sanchez Verts
Tripps Eriksen Dier Dele Davies
Moura
Kane
Lucas needs to do a lot more until I feel we got a good deal with him. I want him dropping a shoulder more and using his brain a bit when drawing fouls etc. Until Son is back I'd do what's best for the team away vs Man U & Watford by playing 3 at the back but for the Fulham game I'd start him in a 4-2-3-1 with Lloris, Aurier, Sanchez, Vertonghen, Davies, Dier, Sissoko, Lucas, Eriksen, Dele & Llorente and hope that home advantage/ Wembley is enough to see us through. A bit of a gamble but it will pay dividends for the likes of Dembele's, Trippier's & Kane's fitness, all 3 of who I'd have on the bench this weekend, over the course of the season
Yep just coming in to post that. They might have to play a right back at centre half.
Will be nil nil then!
Winks and Lamela back much needed with Son off. Not having 343 we struggled breaking teams down at Wembley early last season with it, need the extra attacker.

I think Lamela was just a muscle injury so hopefully be ready to start. But I’ve i feeling sissoko will start.
Can't see Toby starting (ever again), so doubt we'll get to see Tripps as wing back against Fulham. Still hoping he starts ahead of Aurier though as right back.
