The situation is tougher for the back-up goalkeeper Fraser Forster, who has sustained a fracture in his foot, likely keeping him out of action for a couple of months. These injuries present Postecoglou with tactical dilemmas, particularly in the defensive department, as the Spurs lose two key wide players temporarily.
Amidst these challenges, Ange Postecoglou addressed rumours linking him to the managerial position at Liverpool. The Australian dismissed these speculations with a laugh, indicating that his focus remains firmly on the Spurs.
