Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou has acknowledged that the long injury list of Tottenham needs hard work this season to overcome.
Kevin Danso, son Heung-Min and Rodrigo Bentancur all belong to the doubtful players prior to their journey to the city of Ipswich, while Richarlison, Dominic Solanke, Radu Dragusin and Micky van de Ven are all out.
“Everyone likes a obstructing car, I am sure we had many people who have prepared that scenario. I know how hard these players have worked,” he said.
“Our training was better and I was convinced that we would post a good shift. The focus is still on trying to win games. In the background we are doing it in our own way. We are looking for ways in which we we are Being able to do things better, but we will not be the only ones.
“There will be a few who come to my world in the next period and people will see that it is not only a reflection of people involved, but the circumstances with which you have been treated.
“We had a few players who were not injured at all.”
When he was asked if he thought that the problems with injuries and bad form could quickly relieve, he was not willing to give a definitive answer.
“Who knows? We feel, and I certainly feel that there is a huge chance in the back of the year,” he said.
The goalkeeper of Ipswich Alex Palmer has meanwhile praised the 22-year-old attacker Liam Delap, who previously scored his 10th goal of the season against Aston Villa.
“You look at him and he is a monster. He is a young boy who has enthusiasm and energy and also the talent,” said Palmer.
“So for us to let him and him play when he is right now, he will play a major role to play for the rest of the season.
“He is a real striker, and I also think he is an outlet. He is a big physical boy. He is not huge, but he has that raw power.
“Even built up, he helps us to stick and put us, so he is not just a goal scorer. He is an all -round striker. “
