It would be better like this;


Lloris
Chiriches Dawson Capoue
Walker_____________________Rose
Paulinho
Lamela
__++________Eriksen
Soldado Adebayor
I'd rather play it like this with those players:

Lloris
Chiriches Dawson

Walker______Capoue________Rose
Paulinho
Lamela
__++________Eriksen
Soldado Adebayor



Until Sandro and Vertonghen are back, then we could play;


Lloris
Chiriches Vertonghen
Walker_______Sandro_________Rose
Paulinho
Lamela__++________Eriksen
Soldado Adebayor

or

Lloris
Chiriches Vertonghen

Walker_______Sandro_________Rose
Paulinho Eriksen
Lamela
___________Adebayor
Soldado

4-2-2-2 is the way to go. 4-4-2 is great and all but so far doesn't allow for a defensive minded player - something that leaves us cruelly exposed. With this kind of formation we can push them into middle where their weak midfield will be left lacking and at the same time push play out wide working to our strengths.

I'd say

Lloris
Fredericks Dawson Chiriches Rose
Capoue Holtby
Lennon* Eriksen
Lamela Adebayor
At the rate Soldado is going I'd try bringing him on as a sub. Maybe playing against the opposition when they've been worked a bit will make it easier for him to get that elusive goal.

Smith is over 21 so needs to be registered in 25 man squad but was not - I think Spurs only registered 24 players (as Lamela and Erikssen count as u21's for PL purposes) despite registering the likes of Obika and Dawkins. The unknown is whether Spurs have managed to register Smith since the original PL ;lists were sunmitted. If not the choices sare probably Ryan Fredericks or Kyle Naughton !

Delighted to see you've gone very youth centric but I cannot see Sherwood starting Veljkovic, Stewart and Bentaleb (plus possiubly Fredericks) in one match - love the idea but unrealisttic ? Think Dawson will play - after Chirches display and poor heading to date, I'd love to see Veljkovic or Stewart accompany him but think they would come on from the bench rather than start.
you can add a player during the season if you haven't registered 25 players

You got some statistical evidence to back that up?

I think i can predict it 4 4 2 with Lennon swanning back in the side as part of the english core....sigh

Lennon really?
Fcuk me i give up.
Hes great at tracking back?
Well Walkers suspended play him at right back then.

Unbelievable isn't it? We're struggling for goals at home and people think the solution is Lennon for his defensive work. Give me strength, I just hope Tim isn't thinking along the same lines.

Still laughable that some Spurs fans think he is better than Walcott. When was the last time Lennon scored two goals in a game? For two games in a row? Answers on a postcard please.

I like this alot.

Ade was also shit last time out, some people say it was due just coming back from a long time out and then playing so many games off the trot. I say he needs a break and that lineup looks just about right. As long as Eriksen, Lamela, Chadli and Paulinho can all bomb in to that box and really give the service and support that Soldado needs.

And this is the difference between us and City playing 442, obviously much better players but their 442 has power in the right places, and creativity in the right places.

No line up I can think of in 4-4-2 really seems to fit our players. But this seems as attractive as any at home to Stoke where we HAVE to score goals.

I know we are lacking centre mids right now, but for me Paulinho doesn't deserve to come straight back in to the team.
