    Would you play your own game if you were only 16 ahead?

    Rival has Rashford and and TAA ( I have neither) he doesn’t have Wilson.

    So which would you do?

    A: Wilson & Doherty to Rash & TAA (would need to be -8)

    B: One of the above for free

    Thanks

    Spurs really need that last win to secure top 4 and get some form back.

    Don’t see wholesale changes jeopardising league position just to give the UCL a better crack.

    A few changes here and there but can’t see Eriksen resting when there’s no alternative.

        Slightly put off by Manchester United's defensive form. Also, I noticed that in the last 5 seasons. Every team that has came 20th in the league has got a result in their last home game of the season (Draw or win), maybe it's a mentality thing? To please the fans in their last premier league game at home.

      Like a bunch of journeymen.

      Take out Son & Kane and there isn't much left. Eriksen needs to be playing with much better team-mates really. Send him to RM and he'll do a Modric.

      Danny Rose was good, as usual. Sissoko made a difference when he came on. Otherwise nothing of note really. If Llorente is your 2nd striker at the club then what can you expect? The squad needed improvement last summer and didn't get it.

        He'll never do a Modric. He doesn't have the ability to get rid of his marker with a single turn, or take the ball from his own third to the final third on his own. Sissoko does that for him at Spurs. Him vs the 33-year-old Modric, I will take the latter any day of the week.

    Team is:
    Lloris (Gunn)
    TAA Robbo Laporte (Benderek Cathcart)
    Mane Eriksen Son Sterling Jota
    Aguero Jiminez (Gray)

    Team is in good shape but Spurs don't look like they have a lot of goals in them and son hasn't scored many lately, so thinking of ditching one or both of them. Leicester's problem is teams that park the bus, chelsea and city won't do that, so I acc think Vardy will do wel. Hazard will want to go out with a bang. United have a great couple of fixtures and pogba is a flat track bully. with all of this in mind...

    A) Son, Eriksen & Gray to Hazard, pogba and long -4. (Have to act today as long is set to rise)
