Tottenham to play out of their skins and win, having been absolutely shit for about the last month. See also: Wolves.

Not saying we should treat this as anything other than a serious game, but it's a good opportunity to go mad and experiment with all the new players. Some of our regulars are injured anyway, and some need a rest. So I'd start all the new guys. Rest Digne, Rogers, Tielemans, Cash (if he's not injured anyway), Kamara, Konsa.

Not sure what the actual line up would be without all them, mind.

Olsen

Garcia, Disasi, Maatsen

Onana, McGinn, Bogarde

Malen, Ramsey, Rashford, Asensio

Let them just feel it out in regards to positions. Go with the flow.

Don't think Mings or Watkins will be available.

Reckon it'll be something like:-

GK Martinez
CB Konsa
CB Kamara
RB Bogarde
LB Maatsen
DM Onana
CM Tielemans
AM Malan
RM McGinn
LM Ramsey
CF Rashford

Rogers, Asencio and Garcia, Digne and Barkley amongst options on the bench.

I think we should all be more like Big Ange. Think of how exciting a game between that Villa line up and whatever 11 he manages to tape together would be. Are you not entertainined?!

Not sure it's worth being kicked out of the competition just to give Disasi a few minutes.

He's definitely cup tied, and can't play against Chelsea either, so we still have no CB for 2 of our next 3 games. I pointed it out enough times yesterday, and still put him in my unhinged lineup!

Basically With Rashford up front we won't need defence. It will be shots in.

Not sure it will be helpful if Unai instructs Rashford to "get the shots in".

Worst Spurs side for many a year so of course we'll lose.

0-2
