The coaches of Tottenham Hotspur have been really impressed with one player in training ahead of their visit from Crystal Palace on Saturday
With so much time to work with his team without a game under his belt, Ange Postecoglou will undoubtedly expect a significant improvement from Wolverhampton Wanderers’ performance.
In February, Spurs’ press seemed to be less aggressive than in prior games, despite a mixed bag of performances.
After the loss, journalist Alasdair Gold questioned the mindset of several Tottenham players, stating that a significant shift was required.
However, there is cause for optimism as a larger pool of players might be available for Palace’s trip to Tottenham, and two important players have returned to training.
Barring a last-minute setback, it appears that Destiny Udogie will rejoin Postecoglou’s XI.
Although Pedro Porro’s position is a little less assured, supporters will likely anticipate his return as well.
Having said that, a different Tottenham player who is on the fringes has been making an impression at practise this week.
Before Crystal Palace, Alfie Whiteman dazzles the Tottenham coaches during practice.
The Spurs coaches were heard enthusiastically applauding Alfie Whiteman around 1:50 after a spectacular double save that he made in a training video that was posted today.
This season, the 25-year-old seems to be Ange Postecoglou’s fourth choice, although he certainly looked good on this particular occasion.
Because Fraser Forster was injured, Brandon Austin was the keeper on the bench against Wolves.
And maybe there will be a significant shift in that part of the team the next season.
Even while players like Whiteman have shown promise in the Tottenham system prior to joining Palace, if healthy, he undoubtedly wouldn’t be applying any pressure to Forster.
Furthermore, it wouldn’t be shocking if Tottenham tried to replace Guglielmo Vicario as their number two player for the upcoming campaign.
It could be wise to conduct a summer clearing out at the position, especially with players like Aaron Maguire emerging.
Having said all of that, Ian Wright has now forecast the outcome of Tottenham’s match against Palace on Saturday.
