What do we think for Spurs game, I can't see touchel changing a winning formula, although last two games we haven't been as sharpe as we can, Spurs threat will be pace from wide because really Nuno plan will be counter attack, again I'd love to see a front two, not a game I want to see Saul start in and hoping kante is fit. Chillwell on paper suits this game as his quicker than alonso, James is he available? I think this game lays down a real marker for us, lukaku to continue his form and get a brace I think,

I believe James has served his ban so can be picked. I think he will start because I assume Son will start for the Spuds.

I would like Chilwell to start but I wouldn’t be surprised to see Alonso start again.

I think Lukaku will give their CB’s a really tough game.

I want Kante to start but my guess is he will be on the bench.

I’d go:

Mendy

Azpi Silva Rudiger

James Kovacic Jorginho Alonso

Nout Lukaku Havertz.

I will go with a 3-4-1-2 formation:

* Mendy;

* T. Chalobah, Christensen, Rudiger;

* James, Kovacic, Jorginho, Chilwell;

* Mount;

* Lukaku, Havertz.

SUPER SUBS (if there's no need for unplanned/ early substitutions) :
- Kante
- Werner
- T. Silva.

# Alonso not suited to defend against the pace of Tottenham's attackers- hence I would leave him out.

# Azpilicueta showed some lethargic signs against Zenit, meaning he might not be optimal for this game- feel he deserves to be rested for this game.

Kante has to play if fit simple as, a half fit kante plays for me.

Spurs will park the bus and try to hit us on the break with pace.

I still have nightmares about Alonso's slowcoach recovery against Spurs which led to a goal.

For the pace reason alone, I would play Chilwell instead of Alonso.

And against a parked bus defence Werner's pace is nullified.

Mendy

Christensen Silva Rudiger

James Kante Jorginho Chilwell

Mount Havertz

Lukaku.
