Full strength is Kane, Alli, Eriksen and Son though it is great to have Lamela and Moura on par with them.

Guess Kane and Eriksen are the only two assured of starting unless truly out of form.
Alli is fairly secure imo, his goals are too vital to the team.

Although I'd like to see him tried back in CM where he first started playing for us.

Which would enable us to bring Lamela in on the right, Sonny over to the left. Alli making late runs into the box, we'd be a nightmare to play against.

Cannot believe anyone suggesting we drop Eriksen - maybe our most important player and our only genuinely world-class attacking midfielder.
Posts suggesting that so and so cannot be dropped annoys the crap out of me. Nobody should be undroppable. If he is off form and it is affecting the team's performance he should be dropped. Whether or not this the case is for another debate. So nothing wrong with the suggestion

We looked a lot more fluid when Dele came on on Saturday I thought.

Kane
Son Dele Eriksen
Would be my preference.

It's proved successful for us before.

I agree with Alli starting due to his standing in the team.

But hypothetically if we had a big match and started with Kane, Lamela, Eriksen and Son I wouldn’t necessarily think this was weaker.

Kane
Son - Eriksen - Lucas​

Alli alongside Dier or Wanyama behind them.

----------Kane
Son - Eriksen - Lamela

I fully understand Dele getting the nod in most games. But in a vacuum I think those 4 offer the most in terms of ball movement/creativity/scoring/dribbling, etc.

Would love to see Lucas and Son with Eriksen in the hole, while Lucas has impressed more central and advanced its destroying Kane.
