Tottenham Hotspur manager Tim Sherwood has talked up his side's flexible formation ahead of their Premier League game against Everton this afternoon.

Emmanuel Adebayor has been named as the lone striker for Spurs, but the coach believes that his team have three forwards.

He told Sky Sports News: "That's three up top in my view. They all know we have a responsibility to defend but we've got to support Ade as quickly as we can.

"We just think this is the best way for us against Everton. We've got an extra man in the middle of the park

"I want to see Aaron Lennon coming off the line and Moussa Dembele to get up to support Ade up top."
