Not sure about injuries at the moment. I'm sure we'll have an update soon.
Emerson is still suspended for this one and the next. Anthony Gordon is suspended for Everton.

Lineups for each side's last league game:

Spurs: Lloris; Romero, Dier, Davies; Doherty, Bentancur, Bissouma, Hojbjerg, Sessegnon; Kane, Son.
Subs: Forster, Spence, Sanchez, Lenglet, Perisic, Skipp, Sarr, Gil, Richarlison.
League form: WDWWLW.

Everton: Pickford; Coleman, Coady, Tarkowski, Mykolenko; Onana, Gueye, Iwobi; Gordon, Maupay, Gray.
Subs: Begovic, John, Keane, Vinagre, Garner, Davies, McNeil, Rondon, Calvert-Lewin.
League form: DDDWWL.

Ref: Paul "Kieran's dad" Tierney. VAR: Andre "Rhyme of the Ancient" Marriner.

TV: Sky Sports.

How would you like to line up for this one?

FFS. <doh>

FFS. I was about to say everyone is available for the bench at least, according to Conte earlier this week. Spurs did do a Twitter post today about Kulu training though, which sounds promising.

Conte said today that they're not going to rush him, so he won't be available for this one.
Wednesday, perhaps.

Just saw that. Frustrating but better than ****ing him up for the whole pre-WC period. I’d kind of like to see Lucas though I think Richy might start again if he’s over his problem from Wednesday.

Thought Conte’s comments on Gil and Spence were interesting in the presser. Said Gil is a smart footballer and is just still in the process of physically developing, which is pretty obvious to anyone who has seen him play. But Conte says he’s in the process of bulking up. On Spence he says the player is still understanding the demands needed to play under him at Spurs. Whether that’s attitude or tactical or a bit of both is unclear. I think we’d all rather see someone a bit raw than Emerson though.

I want some foresight + some proper Audere est facere this week.

From the "season compass" , the Man Utd game IMHO should
be treated as a "cup final" game, with the strongest possible
starting XI going there and actually fronting up rather than
the shame of the NLD.

Therefore in a weaker starting XI I will trust for Everton :

- One of Kane or Son not to be in the starting XI

- Richarlison

- Doherty should start, as Emerson is out.

- Bissouma for one of Bentancur and Hojbjerg
(he might be less vulnerable in a home game to reffery)

- for Kulu the focus is to try and get him at least 30 mins run
out fit for the Man Utd game only

Gutted about Kulu. I was actually hoping that we’d be able to give Kane a rest for this one with Son, Richy and Kulu starting up top (presuming we go 343 which I think we will at home to Everton) but that now possibly throws it into doubt as I don’t think Conte will fancy Son, Richy and one of Lucas/ Gil - and that’s even assuming Richy will be ok for this too. Gotta try and find a way to give Kane a bit of a rest soon though, along with Hojbjerg.
 
That was a penalty for Son. Don't care what the pundits say. Anywhere else in the pitch that's given.
Tierney is a cnut!
 
Fecking Sky commentary is driving me mad! So biased. Even supporting Pickford complaining to ref about Romero not getting a yellow. <doh>

Edit: not Sky....Lee Dickson on MSNBC
 
Gonna need a worldie or set piece to score today.
They are understandably defending deep, and keeping everyone behind the ball.
 
Everton looking pretty comfortable and looking to attack a little.
Dangerous free kick to give away.
Good block from son
