Tottenham vs Newcastle

It's another Premier League top-four litmus test when Tottenham Hotspur welcomes Newcastle United to North London on Sunday.

Chelsea have gone to a back 4 with the trio of Kovacic, Jorginho and Loftus-Cheek in midfield. As for Manchester United, yet another Cristiano Ronaldo saga has dominated the last few days as he walked off early against Tottenham after being an unused sub and will not be in the squad to face Chelsea. Chelsea head to RB Salzburg on Tuesday in the UEFA Champions League and then head to Brighton on Saturday, Oct. Chelsea signed him in the summer and he’s been on loan back at Chicago Fire. The ball just hasn’t dropped to Raheem Sterling in the right areas on a few occasions. Casemiro and Eriksen class gives United sturdy foundation: The experienced duo of Eriksen and Casemiro got United off to a fine start as they ticked things over nicely in midfield and gave United a foundation to get something from the game. Rashford, Aubameyang struggle: The forwards on both teams struggled to have an impact and perhaps both Chelsea and Manchester United will be better without a true No. Manchester United host Sheriff Tiraspol in the Europa League on Thursday and then host West Ham on Sunday, Oct. United and Chelsea both tried to leave as many forward players forward as possible and it turned the game into a bit of a stalemate. United dominated midfield early on and got the ball to Sancho, Bruno Fernandes and Antony often and Chelsea couldn’t get going. Potter’s decision to bring on Kovacic after 35 minutes gave Chelsea the control they wanted as they switched to a back four and went to a 4-2-3-1. The back four and two holding midfielders are settled, while Fabio Vieira looks likely to start in an attacking role.

For sure Newcastle also needed a bit of time but they have the potential to go into the market - and they did this also this summer - to become one of the best teams in England. Every game in the Premier League is different but we have a way we want to play. “We know with the club the difficulties of the season. Just one defeat for them in the league so far, to Liverpool during their first false dawn of the season in August. We have two days to recover well because on Wednesday we have a vital game in the Champions League and continue to have injuries. Newcastle fortunate not to be behind, but a sucker punch is not out of the question. Have to do better than that to trouble the best defence in the Premier League. Striking then, five months on from that humbling, to look at the lineups and wonder if Newcastle have the edge? We are trying to build something important but to do this we need time to improve the quality of the squad to play in two important competitions like the Premier League and Champions League. He’s given his heart and soul to the club and I think that’s one of his best performances.” They look well-coached, and this deserved away victory at a big six club felt like the planting of a flag. Most telling was their marshalling of the game in a fervid atmosphere during the second half.

Pretty much every time Spurs have faced decent opposition this season, they’ve been outplayed – by Chelsea, though they sneaked a draw at the end, by Arsenal and by Manchester United – and in general, play a reactive style that’s hard to watch in and of itself, never mind when you peruse the talent available to make that not so. Ivan Perisic, Yves Bissouma and Richarlison are decent players just as Djed Spence is a decent prospect, but even at the time, it looked like more than £100m spent turning a team able to contest the Champions League places but no more into a team still able to contest the Champions League places but no more. Football – and modern life – and the human psyche – love a crisis. It’s very hard not to watch the teams who’ve beaten Spurs this season and think hmm, managers on the way up and at the cutting edge, versus a manager past his best, from whom the game is getting away. He squares to Skipp who pokes one more to Son, and Son dips inside his man then lands a curler onto the roof of the net. 14 min The question, of course, is how you do that – does a midfielder stick on him or does a centre-back go with him. But Royal does brilliantly to stay close without giving away a foul, so that when Big Joe, as Steve Bruce knew him, swings back his leg to shoot, he boots Royal, the two fall together, and the upshot is a corner – which comes to nowt. 17 min This is a decent game, both teams looking to get the ball forward. 23 min Skipp breaks ahead of play and Bentancur, out on the right, turns to slide him a decent pass down the line. 20 min Dier takes the ball and goes short, gets ball a pass he doesn’t want and, looking for Lloris, instead punches past the far post. The ball then moves over to Sessegnon, who drags a shot that earns a corner via two defelections, Spurs’ first of the game … He misses and wears a little kick from Lenglet, one of those that outside the box might be a foul but inside it, isn’t one you’d feel comfy awarding a penalty for.

Added bite and vibrancy to the Spurs’ midfield, and was always looking to play the ball forward. Created a great early chance for Son, too, but snatched at a couple of half-chances. Must be one of the fittest players in the Premier League. The best of Spurs’ back three in possession. Performance was summed up when he nearly scored a comical own goal with a loose back-pass before clearing the resulting corner. Also at fault for the second, which started with his poor kick.
