The Tottenham starting line-up for their trip to Fulham has caused an X-rated word to begin trending on Twitter.

Spurs currently lie eighth in the Premier League, five points adrift of Chelsea who occupy the automatic Europa League qualification place.

Jose Mourinho’s men thrashed Burnley at the weekend thanks to a star performance from Real Madrid loanee Gareth Bale.

But Mourinho decided to freshen up his squad for the visit to Craven Cottage, with Scott Parker’s side currently third bottom.

The Spurs boss swapped both of his full backs, with Matt Doherty and Ben Davies replacing Sergio Reguilon and Serge Aurier.

But it is the front four which got Spurs fans excited, with Mourinho opting to hand Dele Alli his first Premier league start since the opening day of the season.

Alli replaced Lucas Moura who dropped to the bench, with Bale, Harry Kane and Son Heung-Min joining Alli in Tottenham’s attack.

The move to start Son, Kane, Bale and Alli together excited Spurs fans, with some coining an X-rated nickname for the quartet.

That is why the word s**g began trending on Twitter, with fans using Son, Harry, Alli and Gareth to create the name.

Spurs fan were quick to praise Mourinho for selecting the four, with their nickname quickly beginning to trend on Twitter.

“Been waiting to the entire season to see this front 4. Ladies and gentlemen … S**G,” one supporter tweeted.

“He’s finally done it. S**G all up front,” another wrote.

The goalscoring threat of Tottenham’s new-look attack was also not lost on supporters, with Kane currently the third highest scorer in the league and Son joint fourth.

    It was not the only acronym that could be formed from a partnership in Tottenham’s line-up, with some fans noticing the backline of Doherty, Toby Alderwerield, Davison Sanchez and Davies could form another word.

    “We were all so excited about the S**G attack we forgot about the DADS defence,” a supporter tweeted.
