No Jonny, so just a question of formation and whether it's Donck or Traore. My money would be on the former, which I guess makes sense given they have an abundance of central midfielders and no forwards so are likely to flood that area of the pitch.

A win takes us within 3 points of 4th, but my prediction is 1-1
 
Yep, 3-5-2 I think.

Jota is your man in form so he plays in his best position.

Great options off the bench.
 
Traore terrified them in the last match. Big call to leave him out after that.

3-4-3 for me, but with Vini told to focus more on defending.
 
Yep I think it will be 3-5-2 with the usual suspects.....is there any chance Kilman will play LWB instead of Vinagre, Nuno seemed a bit unhappy with him Thursday night
 
Nah, can't see us going for that.

Nuno got angry with Neto more than once earlier in the season. He bollocks Adama all the time. Doesn't impact on anything.
 
I thought quick throw aside Kilman looked uncomfortable out there. Plus you need to be bloody fit to play the Jonny role, if you aren't used to it I'd imagine you'd be blowing out of your arse after 20 minutes.
 
I much prefer how we play in 3-4-3 generally but can’t argue with how 3-5-2 worked last week. Really want to win today especially after how unlucky we were to lose the home game.
 
On paper we should win this......but we know Mourinho is the king of shithouse tactics.....gunna be tough
 
Really want to turn these over as we owe them one for their shithouse jammy win at Molineux. Still not an easy game by any stretch as Moura and Bergwijn can cause plenty of trouble but them not having Son or Kane can only help. I think missing Jonny here could be problematic, I like Vinagre a lot but at the moment he doesn’t offer the defensive solidity Jonny does. Having said that he’s been class in the big games he’s been dropped into this season so a repeat would be very welcome!

Beat these and fifth is on I reckon, 2-1 to us.
 
Villa fan on my train in just drank his own piss. Take me back to Barcelona and away from these scatty bastards.

Podence and Traore both have previous in taking Spurs apart.

Having them in the squad is incredibly useful if we need to switch things

I'd imagine we'll start 352 and go 343 if we need to.

If Spurs go 3 at the back I think we have a real chance
 
Our hybrid 3-5-2/ 3-4-3 system is very different to the one we played earlier in the season with Neves in the Segundo/ QB role which never suited him. Donck is much higher up the pitch, playing almost as a ball winning midfielder in the opposition defensive third.

It works and could well work better against Spurs than any other team which is why I think Nuno will do that. Contain the first half, let Spurs get frustrated, maybe nick a goal on the counter or a set piece and then let Podence/ Neto/ Traore do their counter attacking thing.

Donck also plays because of Mourinho's shithousing corners.

Maybe it was a precautionary measure and they were worried other fans might take it.
 
Back to 3-4-3. Traore up top, Donk on the bench.
 
No Lloris for Spurs, Vertonghen and Alderweireld both on the bench.
 
That's a seriously attacking team with Vinagre at LWB. A nice 3-0 win, I think...
