Ange Postecoglou, the new head coach of Tottenham Hotspur, provided fantastic insight into his players’ mental space. They’ve been making plans for their return to the Premier League. He confirmed that Wilson Odobert, who played a crucial role in creating opportunities during a recent match, had trained and was fit for selection. Odobert was involved in two of the most important plays of the match. He was substituted ten minutes before the end, as prolific Mathys Tel took his place on the pitch.
Postecoglou responded to long-running worries of a “mole” in the club. He claimed that this leak is leading to the circulation of misinformation. He said he was peeved when reading accounts that Odobert had re-injured his hamstring. There are untruths or half-truths circulating,” he said, adding that it was imperative to communicate the truth. In terms of looking at Odobert’s performance, it’ll be looked at moving forward with preparation for future matches.
Postecoglou confirmed that winger Dejan Kulusevski will be unavailable for the trip to Molineux this weekend. Unfortunately, this positive news occurs at the same time as Odobert’s appalling case. First, Kulusevski has been absent from the squad for months. He could be back for Thursday’s Europa League quarter-final second leg in Germany. The head coach accepted that circumstances, especially in the case of injuries, had played their part — not least with Kulusevski’s long-term absence.
Furthermore, Postecoglou defended his captain, Heung-Min Son, against recent criticism following his performance in Thursday’s first-leg draw against Eintracht Frankfurt. He wants everyone associated with the club to be focused on the same objectives. What he really wants is for them to work together and stop competing against one another.
