Dugout Discussion – Tottenham vs Sunderland

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.

    I can safely say pickford is better than mannone and it really hurts me to aay that about the arsenal legend

      The last pair are miles better. I did a -12 and only regret is owning the original players. Hazard out to Sterling -4 is only one that may bite me but doubt it.

    Lost on last page

    Gone for double Swansea defenders so that I can get the following WC team in:

    Foster (Jak)
    Shaw Williams Friend Amat, Kingsley
    Sterling Sanchez Capoue Antonio Firmino
    Aguero Lukaku Benteke

    Thoughts? Would you change anyone? The WC was played to take on Hazard, Ibra, Stones, Ozil > Williams, Sanchez, Sterling, Aguero

      Like this team a lot although you have sacrificed defence for strong front 8. I have Ozil in place of Sanchez and stronger defence but not entirely happy.

        Yeah, I had a look at the next few game weeks and Hull and Swansea rotate quite well - other option was Foster > Pickford to release 0.6m which could be used to get a decent WBA defender in for one of the Swansea players. Ozil has been bothering me a bit recently, no doubt he'll start to produce the goods though now that I've removed him!
