What do you think would be the best Spurs starting eleven out of our current squad?

Edit:

Couldn't work out how to change the title until now, decided I wanted to change it because I thought some of the player suggestions seemed a tad too hopeful of who we may sign.

Here goes...
Lloris
Walker - Chiriches - Vertonghen - Rose
Capoue - Bentalab
Holtby - Lamela - Eriksen
Ade

You prefer Capoue/Bentaleb over Holtby, Sandro, Dembelé and Paulinho?! I quite liked Dembelé and Sandro together when they were playing regularly and both fit.
 
Lloris (Cpt)
Walker Lovern Vertonghen Davies
Sandro Dembele
Lamela Eriksen Chadli
Bony

Main Rotation with - Chiriches / Capoue / Paulinho / Holtby / Bentalab / Townsend / Soldado

It seems like we can't rely on Dembele and Sandro to be fit and in form together. I rate Capoue more than Sandro and I think Bentalab has the potential to be a midfield general. Capoue will allow hime to get a little further up the field.

To be honest, I really don't know what to do with Paulinho anymore.

In theory I like the idea of Eriksen, Lamela and Holtby moving fluidly behind the striker. I might even start Holtby in the middle with Lamela on the right because Holtby has such an engine.

Quite like the look of this! But i've never been a fan of Chadli really, but maybe he just needs more playing time to see the best out of him.

Its the one main area for improvement although with townsend/holtby/siggy/lennon about there are some possibilities. maybe konopalanka could solve that left side problem and at about 10million would be good business.

Make up your mind, or are you asking two questions?
