CL place of top four today. Cannot see any problems in getting the win, but need a performance to go with it.
I can think when the last decent performance in the Prem was. May have to go all the way back to Goodison Park at the end of 2018. Really do need to step up performances.
As usual though injuries are once again coming thick and fast, still too many missing from the squad, and only a couple of weeks into the new season. Son is back though now, maybe even Verts today, although an unchanged defence for the third game in a row would not go amiss. It is what I have wanted for a while.
My starting XI today
Lloris
KWP
Sanchez
Toby
Rose
Sissoko
Eriksen
Lamela
Moura
Son
Kane
No need for an out and out defensive midfielder today, Winks gets left out for me, we are at home against a poor Newcastle outfit. Go for it from the off, and put the game to bed before half-time. I fancy a Kane hat-trick today, been a while since he bagged one.

Chance to move into our customary

Considering sissoko cant really do anything attacking I'm not sure how you work that out. At least Winks can pick a pass forward and can control how we play.
Lloris
Kwp Toby Verts Rose
Winks
Sissoko/GLC Eriksen
Lucas Kane Son
Hopefully see Dele on the bench. Lo celso will be on the bench too.

Sissoko is often in an attacking position, do you actually watch Spurs. His problem is he just cannot finish. Winks very rarely crosses the halfway line, and I cannot remember the last time he put a pass forward that resulted in anything positive.
Lo Celso is nowhere ready according to Poch, doubt he will start this side of Xmas if what is coming out of WHL is true. I already have reservations about him. Could be another dud. Hope I am wrong.

Need 1 off Son or Lucas on bench, very hot day have some pace later in game when the rest are knackered

Ok, so it's ok if spurs have players in attacking positions even if they can do anything to help us score?

Not going to get into pedantic point scoring on picking the team, neither of us do. Poch will decide. The point being that Sissiko is far more of an attacking midfielder than Winks.

You got your just desserts.
