A busy Sunday of football comes to its conclusion at White Hart Lane as Spurs and Sunderland go head-to-head in the 4.30pm kick-off.

The hosts’ 4-0 win over Stoke last weekend boosted out faith in the likes of Harry Kane and Dele Alli, yet their midweek Champions League loss to Monaco at Wembley suggests Mauricio Pochettino’s side have yet to hit top gear.

Christian Eriksen and Erik Lamela owners are left cursing their luck after the duo were named amongst the subs, with Mousa Dembele returning to the XI following a six-match suspension.

Certainly, the home side will be buoyed by their visitors’ second-half capitulation at home to Everton on Monday night.

The Black Cats have yet to win under David Moyes and, considering their current form, may well be lucky to avoid a repeat of the 4-1 reverse in the corresponding fixture last season.

      1. PvA
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 6 days ago

        Just got the following error when I tried to make my transfer: "Have you not seen West Ham's defence you plonker? They conceded 4 against WBA ffs. Please try again later."

      2. Rupert The Horse

    1. GinjaWhinja

    10 years, 6 days ago

    kane on the board. thank you C. lets do brace. hes been rather crap since gw 1 but heres to turnaround

  28. ekul the lokonga enthusiast
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 6 days ago

    A) Benteke & King

    Or

    B) Sterling & 4.4 striker

  29. teki0s
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 6 days ago

    A) Ibra & Hazard & Hojbjerg > Aguero & Firmino & Capoue
    B) Ibra & Hazard & Costa > Aguero & Kane & Lallana

  30. Cocky Spaniel Alves
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 6 days ago

    How's this then?

    Cech (those fixtures)
    Williams McAuley Holebas
    Sanchez Antonio Firmino Sterling
    Agüero Lukaku Deeney

    Jakupovic Amat Kingsley Whelan/De Roon

    No Ibra obviously. Any (other) flaws?

    1. Les Bleus
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 6 days ago

      Defense looks really light. Get rid of Cech and upgrade Kingsley

      1. Cocky Spaniel Alves
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 6 days ago

        But then who to get instead?

        Cech McAuley is 10,2 whereas Foster 5,5 is the same.

        Why is Foster 5,5 better?

        1. Cocky Spaniel Alves
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 6 days ago

          Think I misunderstood. But the same principle applies.

          Cech Kingsley is 9,6. I could have Foster 4,9 for that. Lovren?
