Personally tomorrow I'd play

Forster
Royal/Porro- Romero - Lenglet - Davies
Skipp- Sarr
Kulusevski - Kane - Danjuma
Richarlison

Son, Perisic and Lucas subs.

Looks so much weaker without Bentancur and Hojbjerg. But I'm sick of back 3 and Richarlison on the bench.
 

Paging Dr. Tottenham.

We have to play a back 3 cos our WBs are not well suited to a traditional FB role. Also, without WBs we don't really have a good way to progress the ball up the pitch, since Conte has also decided to use Son isntead of Kane should drop deeper.

Play like how Atalanta do with Romero. Have Royal and Lenglet stay back and have Romero cotinue his aggressive style but through the middle. Let Kane drop deep, so he can play his hollywood balls to Porro, Davies, for them to cross to Richarlison.
 
I only remember it because it was an excellent debut Champions League for us and to get to the quarter finals was an excellent achievement but all rivals fans said was that we didn't play anyone good and that the first good team we played, they knocked us out.

Which was laughable at the time and still is today.
Oh I remember our campaign (losing to RM afterwards as well). I just couldn't remember Milan v Scum the following year.
