Tottenham Hotspur return to action in the Premier League on Boxing Day with their trip to Brentford and Antonio Conte has had to balance his starting line-up.
The Spurs boss has had a core of non-World Cup players to work with over the past six weeks and that has been supplemented in the past fortnight by players returning from the tournament in Qatar. Conte has also had to deal with various players having stomach problems and fevers which has led to some of his squad missing a number of days' worth of training.
The boss has already confirmed that Fraser Forster will start in goal as Hugo Lloris was in World Cup final action for France last Sunday and a decision has been made for him to be on the bench.
