How Tottenham could line up with Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg

Tottenham have completed the signing of Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg from Southampton this week. Hojbjerg represents a real out-and-out ball-winner to marshall the centre of the pitch, unlocking the more attacking abilities of his fellow midfielders. Let's take a look at how Spurs could line up next season with their newcomer in the starting XI. Currently, head coach Jose Mourinho is favouring 4-2-3-1 formation for his side. Serge Aurier, the attacking right-back, lets Lucas Moura drift inside and give an extra body in between the lines, while left-back Ben Davies pushes into a back-three alongside the central defenders. The signing of Hojbjerg will finally spell the end of WInks and Sissoko as central midfield partners, while Hojbjerg’s defensive contributions are likely to allow Ndombele more time on the pitch, giving him more freedom to create. During the second phase of the season Giovani Lo Celso played in a more advanced role and this could continue as he begins to get assists and create a relationship with Harry Kane and Heung-Min Son on the pitch.
