Journalist predicts Tottenham team to face Man Utd – probably very close

With the Premier League set to return to our screens next month, fans can now start envisaging how the games will unfold and what sort of team the manager will put out.

It has been a long time since we saw our team line up and players who were first choice before the suspension of the league might not be so lucky when the Premier League resumes.

However, for a team like Spurs who have some established names in their squad already, it might not be rocket science to guess who Tottenham will field when they return to action against Manchester United next month.

When the matches resume, Jose Mourinho will most likely be picking the players who have impressed him in training ahead of the restart as well as players who he trusts to do a job for him like Harry Kane.

Football London journalist Alasdair Gold has given his prediction on the players he believes would start our first game and he is probably close to what Mourinho will go with.

He chose Hugo Lloris in goal, before picking Serge Aurier, Eric Dier, Toby Alderweireld, and Ben Davies as the back four.

Giovani Lo Celso, Harry Winks and Dele Alli make up a three-man midfield, while Son Heung-min, Harry Kane and Steven Bergwijn make up the front three in a 4-3-3 formation. 

If there was one area I am not sure about it is the defence, especially the centre half partnership, other than that I reckon Gold is spot on.
