***OMT - Tottenham Hotspur v Arsenal***

Granit Xhaka has misplaced 153 passes so far this season, more than any other player in the Premier League.

To his defense, only half of them led to a goal.
This is part of why I think this could be a good game for Sissoko. There will be turnovers and counter attacks where his pace and physicality can be useful. And Arsenal probably won't defend as well against that as some teams we've come up against this season.

Will still be happier seeing Winks, Dembele, Alli or others start.

Bench: Vorm, Aurier, Rose, Lamela, Sissoko, Sonny, Llorente

We will really miss Toby's passing out of the back, but that is a super sturdy backline with plenty of magic up front. Also, even with all the injuries, that bench looks decent. A bunch of potential game changers on it. Let's fudge them up.
 
For those who missed it, it's running again at 9pm
Am watching right now. Fascinating insight into why he chose not to pass to Eriksen who might have been deemed to have been better placed in the closing stages of the 4-1 win against Liverpool. He pointed out that had he made that pass, Eriksen would have been forced to shoot from what would have become an impossible angle, whereas he could see a space between the two central defenders that would give him a superb chance for a shot on goal. In the event he was closed down and his shot was blocked. He was so angry with himself for that miss he chased all the way back to the other end and managed to put the Pool striker off sufficiently for his shot to go wide.
