Tottenham Hotspur will welcome back new signing Dominic Solanke and defender Micky van de Ven for the crucial north London derby against Arsenal on Sunday. Solanke, who joined from Bournemouth for a record fee, missed the last two games with an ankle injury, while van de Ven missed the defeat at Newcastle. Manager Ange Postecoglou is hopeful for a positive outcome in the derby, despite Tottenham’s inconsistent start to the season.
Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou has taken responsibility for his side’s 2-0 defeat at Chelsea, admitting that he made the wrong decisions in team selection and that his players lacked the mindset he expected.
Tottenham midfielder Pape Sarr has echoed manager Ange Postecoglou’s comments on Cristian Romero, emphasizing the Argentine’s leadership qualities and battling spirit.
Romero’s performance in Spurs’ 3-2 defeat to Arsenal drew praise from Postecoglou, who called on his players to follow the defender’s example.
Sarr, who has played alongside Romero this season, agrees with his manager’s assessment and believes the team needs more players with Romero’s mentality.
The Senegal international also discussed Tottenham’s upcoming matches against Chelsea, Liverpool, and Manchester City, highlighting the importance of finishing the season strongly to secure a Champions League spot.
