Here's the Tottenham team that Thomas Frank has selected to face Manchester City in the Premier League on Sunday evening
Thomas Frank has made four changes to his Tottenham team to face Manchester City on Sunday in the Premier League from his remaining fit and available players.
Spurs have a treatment room that is full to the brim with injured stars and that has impacted Frank's line-up with new absences for this game. It had been a positive week for Thomas Frank with the 2-0 win at Eintracht Frankfurt on Wednesday night which helped the north London outfit end up fourth in the Champions League table and leap into the last 16.
After finding that a 3-4-3 formation gets more out of his players, Frank looks to have gone with that again against Pep Guardiola's team.
The Dane was hoping that Micky van de Ven would be fit enough to return after training on Thursday and Friday but it has not proved to be the case.
Kevin Danso was also limping heavily throughout the win in Frankfurt after an awkward fall following a first half collision with his own captain Cristian Romero.
The means Joao Palhinha plays in the defensive trio again after impressing in Germany, while Radu Dragusin gets his first start in a year.
Souza is on the bench for the first time after his move from Santos. In the midfield, Conor Gallagher and Yves Bissouma come in with Archie Gray coming in at right wing-back with Djed Spence out.
Dominic Solanke returns to the starting line-up after his late cameo and goal in Germany. Randal Kolo Muani's improved display earns him a start behind the England international with Wilson Odobert coming out
Here's the team Frank has selected:
Vicario; Palhinha, Romero, Dragusin; Gray, Gallagher, Bissouma, Udogie; Kolo Muani, Xavi; Solanke. Substitutes: Kinsky, Tel, Odobert, Sarr, Souza, Olusesi, Kyerematen, Byfield, Rowswell.
