I dunno, leaving Dybala on the bench reeks of complacency, even if Sheffield United are out of form.
Give the guy a chance. He's only been here 5 minutes. He may turn out to be lousy in the end but once or twice we've had him put through some wonderful defence splitting passes. Granted it's got to happen much more often but the talent is there if Jose can just coax it out.
Their last game, in the 2nd half they really came out strong. They looked solid at the back and dangerous up front. They certainly weren't "atrocious ". This is going to be a hard game, make no mistake.
You’re up early doc, like the positivity. Agreed he’ll turn out just fine
Well I much prefer the realistic option than having son and bergwijn as wing backs.
‘No drama’: Jose Mourinho dismisses concerns over Tanguy Ndombele’s Tottenham future — The Independent
Jose Mourinho is backing Tanguy Ndombele to come good at Tottenham and said it is “no drama” that he is not in the starting lineup.

Ndombele to be involved then?
No goals conceded from open play in 180 minutes and you want to drop Sanchez for Toby?
Personally, I'd prefer we stick the the 4-2-3-1 that the players are familiar with.
Lloris
Aurier - Sanchez - Dier - Davies
Sissoko - Lo Celso
Lucas - Alli - Son
Kane
Lamela or Dele is 50/50 choice for me.
I only see Ndom making an appearance if we are chasing a goal with 20 mins left.
We play in our third kit by the looks of it.
Can't remember if we ever actually won a game in that kit yet?
What we should want is a win. Don't care how. Don't care about personell.
But saying "we want" Toby in place of Sanchez after 2 very solid displays by Sanchez-Dier duo is outrageous!! We finally got some stability in the department there. Why should we replace fast Sanchez for ageing (and slowing) Toby?!? would seem awful idea.
Also I have no issue with Ndombele left out of starting XI if Mou decides it like this. I hope he turns out the way we all hoped (who wouldn't) but right now I am sceptical about this actually happening. If gaffer decides it like this, I am fine with Lo Celso in slightly advanced position and Sissoko-Winks behind him in CM.
Just hope we do well today. Win is a must!! COYS!
Lose and we're 9th.. NINTH
Win and we're 7 points off third place
Draw no good for us
There you go, now it's a haiku
I have too much time on my hands I know
Probably play could mean, 51% chance of getting subbed on in rule 90th minute.
Sheffield United haven't been great recently but is it a must win game?
Yes, it will keep our very, VERY faint hopes of Champions League qualification alive but it's far more likely that we'll be playing in the Europa League and do we really want that?
