That's a 3 horse race. 18-1, 15-2 and 2-11.

I might have a little flutter on the draw. I don't think it would really be that surprising if we drew with Spurs' youth team on a boggy L2 pitch.

Vorm;
Trippier, Vertonghen, Foyth, Walker-Peters;
Wanyama, Dembele;
Lamela; Eriksen; Sissoko
Llorente

They might even start Gazzaniga in goal, who has plenty of L1 experience with Gillingham and a bit of Prem time with Southampton but has only had one game for Spurs this season.

As others have said, most of their players would walk into the County team, and indeed most Championship sides. Not sure about Foyth and Walker-Peters' quality, but they played against AFC Wimbledon so Pochettino thinks they're good enough. They might switch Dier, Alli or Kane in but probably won't risk them, though they're not massively deep in that position and Wanyama needs games (we can stand off him and wait for him to give it back to us ). Hoping Alderweireld remains out tbh, not sure when he's meant to be back.

There's speculation Alderweireld might return against us, but would you risk him coming back from a longish injury on a less than perfect surface? I'd never heard of Foyth, but he's an Argentine U20 international and Walker-Peters helped England win the U20 World Cup.

Aurier looks a relatively weak link, tends to hesitate in good positions, and he's an Africa Cup of Nations winner!
