Jose Mourinho has revealed his squad for tonight’s trip to Burnley and one of his star midfielders was omitted yet again.

Tottenham Hotspur visits Burnley at the Turf Moor this evening, for the final game of the Premier League’s sixth round.

Spurs boss Mourinho will be boosted by the return of Argentine duo Erik Lamela and Giovani Lo Celso in the midfield, but will once again be without English playmaker Dele Alli.

The 24-year was also left out of Jose’s squad in last weekend’s London derby against West Ham, which ended in a 3-3 draw after a spectacular late comeback from the Hammers.

He has spent only 66 minutes on the pitch in top-flight English football this season and is clearly not in the best relationship with his coach.

Alli himself, published a controversial tweet last night. Most probably as a protest about his playing time.

Tottenham’s full squad for the trip to Turf Moor according to the Express:

Goalkeepers: Hugo Lloris, Joe Hart, Paulo Gazzaniga

Defenders: Matt Doherty, Sergio Reguilon, Toby Alderweireld, Davinson Sanchez, Serge Aurier, Ben Davies, Dennis Cirkin, Joe Rodon

Midfielders: Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, Harry Winks, Erik Lamela, Moussa Sissoko, Giovani Lo Celso, Tanguy Ndombele, Jack Clarke, Gedson Fernandes

Forwards: Harry Kane, Steven Bergwijn, Lucas Moura, Gareth Bale, Carlos Vinicius, Son Heung-min
