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.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    KDB plus Barry and promote Capoue to 4th mid
    Or
    Sterling and Firmino which would need -4 to downgrade Azpil to 4.8 or less?

    Ta 🙂

      100% but Capoue 4th mid doesn't appeal to me. Easily fixed once, sorry if, he starts blanking. Dont want to upset fellow owners that play him.

        Want to avoid a benching headache, he does get forward a lot and is on corner kicks with Holebas, might also get the occasional free kick since he and Holebas were standing behind the ball. With the money I'll probably do Benteke to Costa if he doesn't pick up a yellow card against Arsenal.
