    With the international break ( <grr> <steam> ) coming,
    even with a home game I suspect the manager will not
    go for any significant squad rotation (that begins next month) .

    So an unchanged starting XI.

    Assume same team as last week being we stayed with a back 4 against city in the end. Can’t think of any reason to change.

    Might not be a bad time to play Bournemouth either being they’ve had so much change in their defence that they may not be quite in sync yet or up with iraloa’s system.

    Udogie is available tomorrow, but Simons wasn't signed in time.
    He should be introduced to the fans, though.

    Udogie being back is great news. Even better knowing that he’s got to fight to get back into the side, exactly the sort of competition you want for a position. I’m a big fan of all three of our main FBs.

    Dragusin also back in 10 days - 2 weeks -Knew it! I’ve been saying for weeks that I didn’t think he was gonna be out til the new year after he posted a video running on the training pitch about a month back. I know he’s not everyone’s favourite but I think Frank can get a lot more out of him than Ange did and as a fourth choice CB really isn’t such a bad option. It’s why I’m less arsed over a new CB than most.

    I think we both remember his performances in the European Cup for his country.

    Tottenham have more points from their first two games (six) than they got from their last twelve league games (five) last season.

    Udogie has to have a good season this time around. Last season he was really disappointing. Hopefully the more pragmatic style will help him.

    Dragusin hasn’t impressed me at all since joining. Even a change of style and manager might not be enough to make him look good for me.

    What is wrong with Solanke, he had a good fitness record before Dr Tottenham came along
