So presumably thats Danso and Gray as the two CBs with a mid of Palhinha, Bentancur and Xavi... interesting
....oooooor Palhinha as a false #4... and rush #6...?

I reckon it's:
[LINEUP]Kinsky
Porro Danso Paulinha Spence
Gray Bentancur
Johnson Xavi Odobert
Tel[/LINEUP]

I like that Frankie has us guessing up to an hour before k.o...

Gawd knows what Grant Mcann will make if it?!
 
Hope it's Palinha at CB as we could be really dropping the ball with gray's development if we can't play him in midfield in these type of games. Using him as a squad player who can play in multiple positions is very useful from our perspective but it's absolutely devastating for his development at this stage. This could be his second year running where he could be looking at little to no minutes in his main position.

I really hope for his own sake that he's playing in midfield today. Palinha can do a job at CB.

Thought you might like to know that Gray went from playing CM in Leeds u18's to playing mainly RB in Leeds first team

And then he came to Spurs, mainly playing CB RB and occasionally LB

So its 3 years since he was playing CM - not 2 years.

Lets see if his final position is actually CM by end of this season
