Tottenham have fallen in the current season on a roller coaster of results which has relegated it, before facing the Christmas marathon of matches, to a disappointing eleventh place in the Premier League.
This Tuesday, before visiting Nottingham on Thursday on the traditional Boxing Day, Ange Postecoglou He assured in a previous conference that Tottenham “need to strengthen” during the January transfer market as it is short of personnel due mainly to the accumulation of injuries it carries.
A victory in five days
Spurs have lost three of their last four league games and managed just one win in five games. Their last two home games, which ended in painful defeats against Chelsea (3-4) and Liverpool last Sunday (3-6), are a reflection of the imbalance between the lines and the defensive fragility that hinders to them.
A negative streak coincided with injuries to key players, including the goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario and the central Micky van de Ven and Cristian Romero.
“It’s fair to say that we still have some shortcomings and we need to strengthen ourselves,” Postecoglou said on Tuesday. “January is a more complicated month in terms of what kind of players you can bring in. For us, the ideal – for any club, I think – is to bring in people who will make you stronger.”
Despite his mediocre Premiership career, Tottenham qualified for the semi-finals of the League Cup after a thrilling 4-3 victory over Manchester United, although now a difficult Liverpool awaits them.
