Given Sarr's knock, who would you play in midfield instead of the extra CB? I'm genuinely curious to know.
Because from where I'm sitting we don't have any midfielders left.

Agree. I really don't know how we can get anything from a back 3 anymore. We played the best games with bombing FBs in Walker and Rose.He’s one of the three players out there that could actually create something.
Take Dier or Lenglet off and play a back a four.
Or worse case move Emerson to RCB and Porro RWB.
The Tottenham way died a slow death 4 years agoIt just doesn't sit right with me this formation and tactics. It's not the Tottenham Way and it not bringing success.
Could drop Kulusevski back to play just Infront of Skipp and Hojbjerg
That's about the only other option
I think I would. It takes away the responsibility and pressure to go for the final third and deliver in an outright attacking sense, and he’s generally been good up until the final third. Besides, you could have Emerson and Lenglet, say, either side of Romero. LCB and RCB stay home a little more, freeing Romero up to be the one that steps up more often, joining the midfield as he clearly loves to do.Would you really trust Royal bringing the ball out of defence?
I would bring on Perisic & Porro, and one of Danjuma/Son for Kulu.
You do know we haven't scored a goal in 6 of our last 7 second half performances?Wasn't great, was far from our worst 1st halves. Now make the usual step up to 2nd and we have it
Yeah to me we've lacked quality in the final third but have actually looked better today than in the majority of first halves this season. We've moved the ball more quickly and players have taken more risks in possession.I don't think it's been all that shit personally.
There has been a lot more rotating of positions than normal and we've cut West Ham open through the first couple of phases if you will. The significant issue has been our decision making and final ball in that last phase. We've got the man over at times but Deki has not been his usual self. Emerson has been teed up to cross on multiple occasions and opted to stand still until someone else becomes available to pass to.
Richarlison deserves to stay on over on the left. If we are to bring Son or Danjuma on for Deki then they should go to the right.
Get danjuma on for Kulu. Has pace in behind and dribbling. Get porro on to provide more attack tooWe're begging for some pace (or clever movement) on the pitch to provide a threat in behind, and balance to us as an attacking unit. We're not hard to defend against because everything is in front of them. I guess that's what you miss when Son is well below par...
