Well done, taking one for the team !
It's true that he hasn't travelled, probably illness though.

Winks or Son as captain.
Davies on corners.
Son or Lo Celso (if starting) on freekicks
why would winks start ?
No Kane
Just going to be honest, I don't see the hype behind Winks at all, tidy player and works his arse off, no denying that at all but I don't see what he does to influence games?
He is very safe, doesn't take many risks and slows our play down massively, people say the same about Sissoko but at least he drives the ball forward and creates chances for us, I don't see Winks doing that or if he does it's not as often.
Winks is a good player to have off the bench to tighten up a game imo, that's about it.
He certainly shouldn't be ahead of Ndombele based on what I have seen so far.

He has no business even getting on the flight up there. Unless he's serving the in-flight drinks.
Sonny or Lucas up top then
16:30Is this the time to give Lucas a full run out again ?? Will Sessegnon start the game ? Could Eriksen be given one last chance ? Can Dele find his lost form ??
Find all this out...and more, this afternoon at 4.30 folks
1. He didn't have to START Kane.
2. Having decided to start Kane, Alli should never been on the pitch starting ahead of Lucas.
The handling of that final - all-round - will forever be a stain on Poch's tenure for me.
However long he lasts from here.
Absolutely unforgivable.
Anyone who uses the word philosophy in football should be shot.Interesting article....Poch's new buzzword is definitely 'dynamic'. I guess 'philosophy' must be worn out.
Mauricio Pochettino interview: Searching for new Spurs formula

I want Euclid or maybe Plato as our next manager
The whole world knew that Kane wasn’t fit. No way on earth that he’d recovered from an ankle injury just weeks before, and certainly wasn’t match sharp. He’d have been more effective playing from the bench.
Poch showed he has favourites and played them all that day. Form and merit, not to mention common sense, all fucked off.
So Kane is out, we are playing one of the 5 worst teams in the league right now (not that it matters really) and additionally one of our OOC centre half's and our seriously out of form Left back are out too. So a little bit of a shake up of personal is forced upon us, which is a good thing as I doubt it would happen if not for injury & suspension......
Let’s see how this shakes out.
I expect the usual high energy from Son and would expect Ben Davies to be really out to impress, with Gazza also trying to keep his shirt long term, I’d be tempted to give Alli the armband to try and motivate him, considering fuck all else has worked to this point, and for the love of god Poch if the likes of Sess & Parrott are in the squad then fucking use them.....
Two questions will be answered today, 1, if we do see an energetic performance does Poch stick with it moving forward and 2, if it’s the same old dross then why are we persisting with this current set up.
Heart says 0-2
Head says 3-2

0-1 spurs 96th minute winner from Parrott
I don’t think he’ll play Lucas. He just doesn’t like him.
imagine it will be Eriksen, Alli and Son.
Your obsession with the diamond is just plain stupid. You do realize that last season, we used the diamond formation numerous times, with Harry Kane, and blew teams away.
In fact, have a little look back on Everton away last season, a game we won 6-2, and tell me what formation we played.
