Tottenham face the daunting trip to Manchester City this afternoon looking for a performance and result to block out the noise from Antonio Conte.
The Italian has been bemoaning his situation in north London after the January transfer window, despite spending big to land Dejan Kulusevski and Rodrigo Bentancur from Juventus.
But City are flying after a sumptuous performance midweek to all but eliminate Sporting and advance to the Champions League quarter-finals with the return leg to come after securing a 5-0 advantage.
