Here’s the Tottenham team we reckon Ange Postecoglou will select to face Chelsea in the Premier League at Stamford Bridge on Thursday evening
Ange Postecoglou has plenty of decisions to make after more injuries for his Tottenham team as they travel to Chelsea on Thursday night in the Premier League.
Spurs will be looking to bounce back after the chaotic 3-2 defeat at home to Arsenal at the weekend and Postecoglou lost two more players for the remainder of the season in that game. Timo Werner suffered a hamstring injury and Ben Davies a calf problem meaning both their campaigns have come to a premature end.
With Destiny Udogie already out after needing surgery on his left quadriceps, the Tottenham boss has no natural senior left-back. That means either switching Emerson Royal from the right to the other flank or taking Micky van de Ven’s pace out of the centre of defence and putting him on the left, with Radu Dragusin coming into the back four.
Werner was replaced by Brennan Johnson on Sunday after going off half an hour into the game and who Postecoglou plays in that role could depend on whether Richarlison comes in the starting line-up and also whether James Maddison retains his place in the centre of the pitch after a disappointing run of form.
Here is the team we reckon Postecoglou will select:
