Narrow diamond appeals to me.

As for the choice I'd pick GKN.
Time for guys like Winks, nkoudou and possibly Sterling/Shashoua/Georgieu to have a baptism of fire
Lloris, Aurier, Alderweireld, Sanchez, Foyth, Davies, Dier, Winks, Sissoko, Kane, Son
Think I'd pick that XI, with Sissoko and Son supporting Kane. Could also do Llorente over Foyth but can't remember Poch starting with 2 proper strikers very much at all. We should dominate possession and be on the front foot most of the time, so not too worried about starting Foyth, especially as we'll have 5 back there rather than 4.

Tottenham - UCL - Squad
based on our CL squad it looks as though only Gazzaniga and Whiteman as the 3rd and 4th GK's will miss out on a start or bench spot.
That means a bench place for Georgiou and Oakley-Boothe, as well as GKN and Foyth.
We are literally down to our last remaining outfielders.

I could see Poch start Llorente up top with Kane just below him in a 3-5-2 given our limited options.
[formation=352, Lloris, Foyth, Sanchez, Toby, Aurier, Sissoko, Dier, Son, Davies, Kane, Llorente][/formation]
Or maybe a 4-4-2.

It at least is up here. Viasat broadcasts all the CL games so you should at worst be able to find a stream.
Call it gut feeling. But I think Poch might give Georgieu some minutes tomorrow. It's a big team but still within his range to handle. And he plays international football for Cyprus as well
I honestly think that's the play given our squad, but I think I get the lineup right 1/5 times so I wouldn't be surprised to see something wacky.
Dele Alli (suspension)

Mousa Dembele (ankle)

Christian Eriksen (illness)
Unwell overnight and has not travelled.
Erik Lamela (hips)

Danny Rose (knee)
Continues progressing with intensity of rehabilitation.
Jan Vertonghen (suspension)
Serving one-game European ban following red card against Borussia Dortmund.
Victor Wanyama (knee)
Undergone period of treatment and now stepping up rehab.
does not sound good even allowing from weakness of opposition. will be glad for 3 points and not worried if it is close.

I don't know if it's just inevitable with the amount you post, but you do have a habit of stating the obvious.
Depending on where you see Lamela fitting in, that's 6/7 FIRST TEAM starters...That's some list.
And all but Lamela (Jan, Dembele, Rose, Dele, Eriksen & Wanyama) would be among the first names on the team sheet! (though obviously depending on what order you put them in, they couldn't ALL go first!)
If think Winks will play in the Eriksen role - he can play as a no.10 or CM imo. I guess Sissoko and Dier will be in the middle again and Foyth will come in to a back three - Poch seems to have a lot of faith in him. Kane and Llorrente up top is an option but I don't think Poch will go that route. Son's a guaranteed starter but I still don't think Poch trusts GKN enough yet, but I think we'll see him at some point in the game
