Conte said a few interesting things post match. That he will rotate. That he thought Winks played well in the 2nd half. And that this game is important. So based on that, I think this might be the team:

Gollini
Tanganga Sanchez Davies
Doherty* Skipp Winks Sessegnon*
Dele* Kane Bergwijn
Lucas, Son and Hojbjerg could come off the bench, perhaps Rodon for Davies if the game is comfortable.

Mura are shite, so if things aren't going well, Lucas and Son off the bench and into the front 3 would be enough to get the game won I think.

*basing the selection of these players on Conte bringing them off the bench in previous games.

It's imperative we win.
Finishing 2nd in the group means we go into a play off round in February and not sure we want the extra 2 games.
Thanks for that post. If we finish second these are possible fixtures.

OK, I'm not saying we make the final but we can do without the additional ECL fixtures.

Lloris, Doherty, Royal, Reguillon, Dier, Skipp, Winks, Lo Celso, Lucas, Gil, Dele, Kane
 
This should be a game we can use bit part players, and not rely on the big guns, although I would have them in the squad. A chance for Ndombele, Bergwijn, Dele to get some minutes. Skipp should be fresh after missing Sunday.

Gollini
Tanganga - Sanchez - Rodon
Doherty - Skipp - Ndombele - Sessengon
Bergwijn - Dele - Gil



Spot on mate. Really intrigued to see how the second team does under Conte and the likes of Doherty, Sess, Berg and Dele.
 
Mura are terrible we should play a very rotated squad and win easily:

Gollini
Tanganga-Rodon-Dier
Doherty-Ndombele-GLC-Gil-Sess
Scarlett-Bergwijn​

If GLC is not healthy put in Harvey White

I would put Skipp on the in the 2nd half to get him some game time probably switched with Ndombele or GLC.

Edit:

I guess playing with 12 players might cause some issues.

We might not get away with playing 12.
 
Markanday played 90 mins for the u23's away at Leicester tonight (winning 4-1), whilst White played 87 minutes, so neither likely to start but both could be on bench on Thursday

Scarlett not in u23 squad tonight so could play v Mura - but having said that I didn't see him in the training pictures during international break so he might not be fit

I feel White is at the crossroads.
Great performance this evening for the U23s (2 goals).
He can't go on being a "prospect."

Big mistake to keep him at Spurs this season to date without playing him - although he's been on bench in about 4 or 5 European games and 3 Papa Johns games for u23's v League 1 and League 2 teams

Would have been far better to put him out on loan to gain experience playing mens football.

It's kinda ironic that Nuno selected so many academy players but really did not help any of them.
Well, Scarlett must have gained from the experience alone I guess.
