At Tottenham, Ange Postecoglou’s injury issues have largely resolved. After fielding a roster consisting of full-backs and rotating midfielders, the Australian team is almost ready for competition.
Spurs will also require it. There’s a chance Manchester United will be forced back into the running for the Champions League spots as they begin to cut the deficit on Aston Villa in fifth place.
With 14 games remaining, anything can still happen. Currently, Tottenham has the advantage since they are one game ahead of Villa and five ahead of United. After losing 4-2 at Brighton before the New Year, the Lilywhites have gone five games without a loss, which has allowed them to stay outside of the title race. However, they have also gone two games without a win since mid-December.
Fortunately for Postecoglou, his team is in the best position it has been in in a few months. James Maddison may be reunited with midfield colleagues Yves Bissouma and Pape Matar Sarr now that he is firmly back in the fold. A strong defence that resembles the group that soared to the top of the standings by November is in place behind them.
In front of Guglielmo Vicario, Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven have resumed their collaboration, and both of the first-choice full-backs are available for selection. Spurs’ injury issues are no longer significantly affecting the team.
Manor Solomon is still out due to a knee ailment. Postecoglou stated last week in an interview that he hasn’t returned to the mix yet. The head coach stated, “He had another procedure on his knee on Monday.” “Nothing major but we’re looking at another two or three weeks for him.”
