Tottenham Hotspur Football Formation

Lineup (4-4-2)

Pavlyuchenko as the centre-forward (rather than endless long balls to Crouch). Defoe using his pace from deeper. Pace on the flanks too from Lennon and Bale. Modric and Huddlestone as central midfielders, often dropping deep when in possession to find space to use their range of passing. Defence pretty much picks itself, although Kaboul has been very impressive at right-back and edges Corluka, who has to be one of the slowest under-30 full-backs I've ever seen. No question over Gomes as keeper.
