    This will be a real test.

    Emery probably regretted the timing of the international break as they'd started to find their form.

    Their midfield is a lethal mix of power, skill and experience. I think that's where the game will be won or lost.

    No Bergvall or Sarr starting..... hope that's tactical and not linked to post-International break issues?

    Looks like Frank agrees....he's starting with what appears to be an overly defensive formation in MF.

    Frank seems to be squad managing Richarlison
    quite well (Solanke not available, the long
    internationals trips etc) .

    Would be nice if the latter could start repaying
    that on-pitch for Spurs.

    I personally think Frank has already clocked that he is just a terrible player.

    Can't fault the lad's attitude.

    If his ability and decision-making matched it, he'd be unstoppable.

    Fun fact: I was in the middle of mentioning Udogie is being rested as his knee was a little larger than it should be coming back from the internationals just before that news broke

    Pitch stripes look a bit weird? Is that down to all the rain?
