Conte's selection on the right
Facing a big selection decision given the magnitude of the game, Antonio Conte's starting XI said an awful lot about Tottenham's options down the right side. Previously always bringing Davinson Sanchez in when Cristian Romero has been absent, this time the Colombian remained on the bench after such a poor showing at Bournemouth last Saturday.
Unconvincing in his time on the pitch, the ex-Ajax man was all at sea for the Cherries' first of the afternoon as he raced across to help out his fellow Spurs defenders but left goalscorer Kieffer Moore in acres of space as a result. Replaced by Eric Dier on the hour mark, the England international impressed in his role on the right and caught the eye a number of times with some excellent runs forward and some testing balls for the Bournemouth backline.
