Tottenham drop team news hint for FA Cup fifth round clash vs Sheffield United

Tottenham have dropped a team news hint on social media about the starting lineup for the FA Cup fifth round clash against Sheffield United. The tie at Bramall Lane comes hot on the heels of Spurs' victory against Chelsea in the Premier League, with Antonio Conte's side hoping to secure a place in the quarter-finals.

The win against Graham Potter's side was at times a prickly affair, with a clash between a number of players initially seeing Hakim Ziyech sent off for a shove to the face of Emerson Royal, though that was eventually downgraded by VAR. And the fixtures are now coming thick and fast for Spurs, with five games in the next 18 days before the international break.

As such, it could be a chance for Conte to rotate his side ahead of big Premier League and Champions League clashes, with Milan heading to north London next week for the return leg of their Champions League Round of 16 tie. There are areas of the squad which could use a bit of a freshening up - but Spurs may have dropped a hint about who is in the starting XI already.
