Doherty------------Perisic
---Bissouma---PEH------
-Kulu--Kane--Richie-----
We need to be physically strong and control the ball bit more than in previous games.
So Doherty (better passer and crosser) in for Royal; Bissouma (some muscle and freshness) to midfield and Richie (more aggressive and better at retaining possession + fresher) into the last lineup please.
Nothing at all against Sonny - I'd like to see him get like 20+ min on the field against tired legs of these cloggers. Also possibly Spence in for Doherty in the end... sad that there is no more attacking rotation option with Moura either injured or preparing transfer and Gil... well just not the place for him in this one.

Let’s win first and you can tell us how you feel after?
:contethumb:
He declared himself fit and ready for action before Sunday's game, but it looks like Conte didn't agree with him. Maybe today though?
Surely that's a "bringing the game into disrepute" charge - advocating violent conduct against a player? Bet you a pound to a penny that if it was Conte that said that, he'd be banned for the season!
I honestly don't know what Richie did wrong, it might be a bit irritating to the opposition but not exactly the crime of the century!
It’s bizarre, there’s worse things going on in the world that people should be in uproar about
Up in Yorkshire this week, hoping to be back in my room for kick off.

My message if I was Conte, to Moyes, would be that if your players start kicking Richarlison, then my players (ok Romero) will start dealing out some broken fucking legs.
Hope Richarlison does it again tbh

Like kicking a cat for starters!!
I've always thought Moyes was a selfish, miserable, humourless cunt - and this feeling grows day by day, week by week.
I want every Spurs player to do all the tricks, including keepy uppies, tonight, one after the other, including Conte - but except maybe for Sanchez, who might accidently put it in his own net.
Keepy Uppy with Richie!
Surprised lots of you are leaving out Sanchez from the team.
He's probably in the best form of his career with us. The stats certainly indicate that.

Really need to be the top dogs in the London derby table. Bit disappointing last year.
Failure to win some of these away matches this season will cost us overall.
Tough one to call really. Similar to Chelsea they put their performance levels up to 11 - we need to match them.

Asked if there was room in the game for ball juggling, boss Moyes said: “No, I don’t think there is.
“I think football in all countries, there’s no room for ball juggling, whether it is in this one or any other ones, or whether it be in non-league or the Premier League.
But Moyes was perfectly happy to pick a player who kicked a cat around his kitchen for a laugh.
David Moyes stands by cat-kicking Kurt Zouma with West Ham star again available to play
