Mauricio Pochettino will have to do an excellent job of balancing out his resources this week as Tottenham prepare for two huge clashes in the context of their battle to finish inside the Premier League’s top four.
Indeed, Manchester United make the trip to Wembley this evening, but it will be the Lilywhites’ turn to travel on Sunday when they face Liverpool at Anfield – a ground where they’re yet to lose in the Premier League so far this season.
Some players will inevitably be unable to feature in both fixtures and Mousa Dembele seemingly falls into that category. He never seems to be fully fit and has lasted the full ninety minutes during just four appearances since September.
Accordingly, we asked Tottenham fans earlier today whether the 70-cap Belgium international should start against Manchester United tonight or Liverpool on Sunday, and our poll showed Spurs supporters are somewhat divided on the issue.
While 60% would like to see him start tonight, 40% think he should be spared for the trip to Merseyside. How would you line up Pochettino’s side against the Red Devils? Let us know by commenting below…
