Pochettino should give these 3 Tottenham players a chance against Man City

Moussa Sissoko

Vertonghen’s injury could force Pochettino to change to a back four, and thus a position in the midfield could become available.

And Moussa Sissoko will be one of those players hoping to benefit from the Belgian international’s misfortune against City on Saturday.

The former Newcastle man hasn’t set the world alight since a £30 million move from St James’ Park last summer, yet there have been glimpses of his ability in recent substitute appearances, most notably against Manchester United last month.
