2 CBs, 1 LB. I think we are looking at a classic, flat, gung-ho "run about a bit" 442.

Why? We're expected to lose this game, a point would be a great result. There's no pressure on us and playing both Kane AND llorente should confuse Madrid as to how we're gonna play. Lets just enjoy it

BBC wasting no time 
Tuesday 5 April, 2011. The last time Tottenham faced Real Madrid - a 5-0 loss at the Bernabeu Stadium.
On that same night, Harry Kane came off the bench for Leyton Orient in their League One win over Plymouth.
Six years on and the Spurs and England striker may be auditioning for a future job in a Los Blancos shirt.
Onto tonight's talking point...
Will Harry Kane end up at Real Madrid one day? How would he get on in Spain? Does he need to make the move?

Looks like we're matching a diamond with a diamond.
Lloris
Aurier Sanchez Alderweireld Vertonghen
Dier
Sissoko Winks
Eriksen
Kane Llorente
Benzema C.Ronaldo
Isco
Modric Kroos
Casemiro
Marcelo Ramos Varane Hakimi
Navas
Man for man our first team matches up well, only area that I'd say is weak compared is the Winks/ Sissoko axis compared to Modric/ Kroos. Sadly that's a quite massive gulf, and the presence of only Son as an attacked on the bench is worrying.Aurier Sanchez Alderweireld Vertonghen
Dier
Sissoko Winks
Eriksen
Kane Llorente
Benzema C.Ronaldo
Isco
Modric Kroos
Casemiro
Marcelo Ramos Varane Hakimi

Agreed on the squad depth, but next man up should be Oliver Skipp. He impresses me every time I see him play, and only narrowly missed out on the U17 World Cup, despite being almost a year younger than TOB. He would be a better option than Georgiou.
Ultimately though, we should have kept Josh Onomah, instead of sending him to Brucie Dinosaur Ball and the Villa bench.

Nothing to do with the line up just meant bricking it as in nerves really kicking in! It’s what happens for me as kick off nears in these big games regardless of the side put out.Why? We're expected to lose this game, a point would be a great result. There's no pressure on us and playing both Kane AND llorente should confuse Madrid as to how we're gonna play. Lets just enjoy it
Anywho

Just wonder if Poch has put Llorente up top to occupy Ramos and Co, taking their attention away from Kane thus freeing him to take shots and stuff..

For me it signals "we won't have as much of the ball that we typically like so we might as well put up the shield and have a couple outlets when we have a chance." No pace in the side at all sans Serge and I can't see him bombing forward too much when we will be under pressure.
