As Tottenham Hotspur face the daunting task of facing Manchester United, we have tried to call their predicted lineup.
With Ryan Mason officially becoming Spurs’ caretaker manager, we expect him to make 3 changes for his first game in charge.
Tottenham Hotspur predicted lineup vs Manchester United
Considering Ryan Mason said in his latest press conference via Football.London that he is ‘unsure’ about Hugo Lloris’ availability against Manchester United, Fraser Forster could start in our Tottenham predicted lineup.
With a back three not expected but having seen a back four bomb against Newcastle United, Japhet Tanganga, once branded as ‘fantastic’ by Jose Mourinho via Football.London could play at right-back due to being a more traditional defender than Pedro Porro.
Despite Cristian Romero not covering himself in glory against the Magpies, he is likely to retain his place in the side once again.
The same goes for Eric Dier, who is expected to start in our Tottenham predicted lineup against Manchester United.
At left-back as well, the same logic that was in place for Japhet Tanganga and Pedro Porro could be implemented with Ben Davies and Ivan Perisic.
At the base of midfield, Oliver Skipp is dead set to keep his place in the XI as he has become a regular starter for his boyhood club.
Pape Matar Sarr, who was hooked off in the first 45 against Newcastle could be given a runout due to his composure on the ball and defensive intelligence.
To cap the midfield trio off is also almost guaranteed to be Pierre-Emile Hojberg in our Tottenham predicted lineup.
As for the front three, it is next to impossible to look past Dejan Kulusevski, Harry Kane and Son Heung-min starting against Erik ten Hag’s side.
Tottenham Hotspur predicted lineup vs Manchester United: Forster, Tanganga, Romero, Dier, Davies, Skipp, Sarr, Hojbjerg, Kulusevski, Kane, Son
