Tottenham need to get their season back up and running when Nottingham Forest come to town on Saturday afternoon.
The wheels have come off Spurs' campaign in the past week with meek exits from the FA Cup and Champions League at the hands of Sheffield United and AC Milan respectively. Antonio Conte's future has been questioned after three games without a goal and with Liverpool chasing hard behind, Tottenham need to get back to winning ways to maintain their spot in the top four.
We asked our Tottenham correspondent Alasdair Gold and Rob Guest to name the teams they would like to see Conte select for the match against a Forest team with the worst away form in the league.

Conte cannot persist with the same underperforming front three and it must surely be time for Arnaut Danjuma to make his full debut for Tottenham since moving on loan from Villarreal six weeks ago.
Richarlison was vocal about his frustrations with Conte's selection decisions on Wednesday and his lack of game time and how the Italian takes that very public outburst will decide what part the Brazilian plays against Forest.
Elsewhere Eric Dier should return to the defence, which allows Ben Davies to replace the out of form Ivan Perisic on the left. On the other flank, Pedro Porro could get another Premier League start to his name.
Gold's team: Forster; Romero, Dier, Lenglet; Porro, Hojbjerg, Skipp, Davies; Richarlison, Kane, Danjuma.

Conte needs to switch things about on Saturday afternoon when Nottingham Forest make the trip to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Way off the pace against AC Milan in midweek and deservedly exiting the Champions League, the starting XI needs a refresh as they bid to return to winning ways.
Eric Dier will come back into the side in the back three, thus seeing Ben Davies shift across to left wing-back after Ivan Perisic's early exit against Milan. On the opposite flank, Pedro Porro should be given another go after showing glimpses of his quality in his last three outings.
It remains to be seen what will happen with Richarlison following his outburst but Conte could quite easily name him in the side and give him the opportunity to prove to him why he should be starting games. It would be nice to see Arnaut Danjuma handed a rare chance but he will more than likely have to settle for a place on the bench once again.
Guest's team: Forster; Romero, Dier, Lenglet; Porro, Hojbjerg, Skipp, Davies; Richarlison, Kane, Son.
