As the Premier League season heats up, Tottenham fans have been delighted to see Dominic Solanke in top form. The 27-year-old has already scored four goals for the team, and six in all competitions, since joining from Bournemouth over the summer. His impressive performances have even earned him a spot back in the England squad, after a long absence since his debut in 2017.
However, fans were disappointed to learn that Solanke wouldn't be playing in Tottenham's match against Fulham on Sunday afternoon. It turns out that the striker is battling an illness and won't be able to take the field. According to Sky Sports, manager Ange Postecoglou explained that Solanke wasn't feeling well and had to be sent home from training. The hope is that he will recover quickly and be ready for their next game.
With Solanke out, Timo Werner has been brought into the starting lineup. He will join Son Heung-min, Brennan Johnson, and James Maddison in the front four. It's a strong lineup, but fans will definitely miss Solanke's contributions on the field. However, Postecoglou is confident in his team and believes they can still come out on top against Fulham.
Unfortunately, Tottenham is also facing some injury issues at the back. Guglielmo Vicario, Micky van de Ven, and Cristian Romero are all out, leaving Postecoglou with some tough decisions to make. In the end, he has chosen Fraser Forster as the goalkeeper, with Ben Davies and Radu Dragusin at centre-back. It's a solid defense, but postecoglou will have to manage his players carefully in order to keep them healthy during a busy period.
One player who will have to settle for a spot on the bench is Dejan Kulusevski. Despite his impressive form this season, Postecoglou has decided to manage his game time and not rush him into the starting lineup. This is a wise decision, considering that Tottenham has a total of nine matches coming up in December. It's going to be a challenging month, with games against Bournemouth and Chelsea among others. However, a win against Fulham could see Tottenham rise to fifth place in the Premier League table, which would be a great achievement for the team. Fans will be eagerly watching and hoping for a successful outcome.
