Ange Postecoglou has been true to his word and has heavily rotated his Tottenham Hotspur starting line-up to face West Ham United on Sunday afternoon in the Premier League.
Spurs‘ main focus is on the second leg of their Europa League semi-final against Bodo/Glimt on Thursday in Norway and Postecoglou had said that he would make plenty of changes from the side that won 3-1 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Thursday.
He has gone for a complete change of the back four with Djed Spence, Archie Gray, Kevin Danso and Ben Davies all coming in and in the midfield Pape Matar Sarr and Dejan Kulusevski did not start in the first leg against Bodo so do so this weekend. The Spurs boss has decided to give Yves Bissouma another start to improve his sharpness.
Richarlison and Tel played a half each on Thursday night so start up front, with Wilson Odobert alongside them.
Mikey Moore and Damola Ajayi are on the bench with players like Son Heung-min, Lucas Bergvall, Dominic Solanke and James Maddison all missing the match.
Here’s the Tottenham team Postecoglou has selected for the derby against the Hammers:
Vicario; Gray, Danso, Davies, Spence; Sarr, Bissouma, Kulusevski; Odobert, Richarlison, Tel. Subs: Kinsky, Porro, Romero, Van de Ven, Udogie, Bentancur, Johnson, Ajayi, Moore.
