This North London Derby is already set to get off on the wrong foot, with the word on the street being that a plane has been hired to fly a ‘Levy Out’ banner over the stadium. Whether you like ENIC or not, that’s not the point here, the point is, this is too little too late. So lap it up boys, and brace yourselves for absolutely nothing happening as a result of your sideshow.
There’s a late fitness test for Giovani Lo Celso that doesn’t bode well, Dele Alli’s hamstring rules him out, Eric Dier is serving out his suspension, which just leaves Foyth and Tanganga still out. I note Troy Parrott has vanished from the Physioroom listing, so maybe he’ll make it onto the Tottenham bench tomorrow? No, me neither…
There’s a mumble doing the rounds that Serge Aurier might not feature, which in the scheme of things won’t make such a huge difference to how Spurs are likely to line up. The above picks are obviously minus the Ivorian, and if he is fit, then we revert to a back four with Davies and swap out Sessegnon.
Personally, the selection here looks far fresher and leaves us with Steven Bergwijn on the bench. As for Harry Winks, I think after recent games, we’ve all seen more than we needed to.
