Antonio Conte must get his team selection spot on as Tottenham Hotspur take on Marseille at the Orange Velodrome in the Champions League on Tuesday evening.
Conte must select his team and then let them and his coaches get on with it as he is suspended and not allowed on the touchline or in the dressing room, preventing him from communicating with his Spurs squad at the stadium before, during or immediately after the crunch final group stage game away against the French side on Tuesday night.
The Italian was shown a red card in the aftermath of the VAR decision against Sporting CP last week that ruled out what would have been a late Harry Kane winner.

Assistant boss Cristian Stellini confirmed to football.london on Monday that Tottenham will again be without Dejan Kulusevski, Richarlison and Cristian Romero through injury. The main decision for Conte is whether to go with a 3-5-2 formation or a 3-4-3 with either Lucas Moura or Bryan Gil in the right-sided role in the front three.
A 3-5-2 would likely see Yves Bissouma come into the side and a decision also has to be made with the wing-backs with Matt Doherty and Ivan Perisic the duo that could have their turn at starting after Emerson Royal and Ryan Sessegnon started in the victory at Bournemouth, the latter scoring.
Here is the Tottenham team we reckon Conte will select for a Champions League game he has labelled a "final":
3-5-2: Lloris; Sanchez, Dier, Lenglet; Doherty, Hojbjerg, Bissouma, Bentancur, Perisic; Son, Kane.
