Ryan Mason has made three changes to his Tottenham team for this evening's Premier League clash against Manchester United. Last in action on Sunday afternoon, the Lilywhites fell to a humiliating 6-1 defeat away at Newcastle United and it resulted in Cristian Stellini's dismissal 24 hours later.
With Mason now back at the helm after previously taking on the role two years ago following Jose Mourinho's exit, the 31-year-old will be looking for a reaction from his team with Spurs now in a real fight to hold on to one of the European spots on offer. Following the debacle at St James' Park, Mason has elected to switch formation after the very attacking 4-3-3 system Stellini used in the north east was duly punished by the Magpies.
Seeing Hugo Lloris come off with an injury at half-time at the weekend, the Frenchman is not fit enough to make the squad so Fraser Forster comes in for his first start since last month's 3-3 draw at Southampton. After playing with four in defence at Newcastle for 20 minutes before switching things about, Spurs start with a three-man backline against Manchester United.
