Spurs should get 4th if they're battling for it with Liverpool.
Goalkeepers = Friedel and Reina are both awesome.
Defence = Neither team has much to shout about to be honest. I'd put Man Utd's, Man City's and Chelsea's defences far ahead of both Spurs and Liverpool.
Centre midfield = Spurs have a much better CM in VDV, Modric and Parker. Any combo of them.
Wingers = Tricky one! I'd say Downing is better than Bale, but that's all I could compare.
Strikers = Suarez and Adebayor are probably on-par. As for Defoe and Carroll, it all depends on whether Carroll starts scoring more.
All in all, whilst there isn't much in it, Spurs probably edges it in most categories, so I'd expect them to do a little better.
