The Dugout Discussion – Tottenham vs Everton

Having relinquished leads in their last two league ties, Tottenham Hotspur chase a morale-boosting victory over Everton on home turf in today’s tea-time encounter. The Toffees, meanwhile, were outclassed by a superior Manchester City side but will take heart from their dominance over Southampton in a 3-0 win on their first road trip.

Spurs rank sixth for shots inside the box (27) and big chances (six) this season but suffer from a poor shot conversion rate (7.3%). Of more concern to Mauricio Pochettino, his troops still haven’t discovered that optimum balance between attack and defence, given that they rank joint-fourth with regards to big chances conceded (six).

Despite netting five goals this term, Everton have chalked up just ten shots on target, so there’s certainly scope for the Merseysiders to improve on the attacking front. On the flipside, they’ve only conceded two big chances against Watford, Saints and Man City, which suggests Spurs’ forward line are in for a challenging contest.

    Eleven out of 14 tackles successful, six interceptions, 10 ball recoveries and 80% pass success rate.

      Can't think of any stand out transfers, maybe :

      A: Hazard Diouf > Pedro Benteke -4
      B: Hazard Diouf >Henderson Costa -4
      C: Diouf > Sakho

      Anything stand out ?

        Wouldn't do any of those, save transfer if those are your options. Hazard > Pedro is too sideways to warrant a hit, Benteke hasn't been setting the world alight and is out of form, Henderson is injured. Diouf > Sakho the best of the lot but feels quite sideways as well.

          True. I'm concerned I don't have Mahrez & LEI are at home to AVL next week. Would you bring in Mahrez or Sterling for Ozil?

            I'd go for Mahrez. You already have 2 City players, so you should be fine in that department. You'll also get an extra week to decide which City mid is best (Silva, Yaya, or Sterling).
