Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou is feeling the pressure as he looks to strengthen his squad before the end of the transfer window. With just seven wins from 22 games, Spurs are currently sitting in 15th place in the Premier League table and are in desperate need of new additions to turn their season around.
Despite their struggles in the league, Tottenham is still alive in the Carabao Cup, Europa League, and FA Cup. However, their ongoing fitness problems and string of injuries have made it difficult for them to find consistency on the pitch.
Ahead of their upcoming match against Leicester, Postecoglou will be without several key players, including Dominic Solanke, Guglielmo Vicario, Destiny Udogie, Brennan Johnson, Timo Werner, Micky van de Ven, Cristian Romero, and Wilson Odobert. While Pape Sarr, Djed Spence, Sergio Reguilon, and Yves Bissouma could potentially be involved, they are all doubtful due to their own injuries.
Despite the mounting challenges, Tottenham has yet to sign a new outfield player this month. Postecoglou has expressed his concern about the situation, stating that it is a risky move for the club to not bring in any new players before the transfer window closes.
The Tottenham manager acknowledges that he is not responsible for finding new opportunities for the club, but he believes that the current playing group needs help. He recognizes that the club is taking steps to address the situation, but time is running out and they must act quickly.
Tottenham's packed schedule, with five matches in just two weeks, has added to the pressure on the team. However, they did manage to secure a win in the Europa League against Hoffenheim on Thursday, which will hopefully give them some momentum going forward.
In terms of injuries, there is some positive news as Romero and Van de Ven have returned to training and could potentially be available for the second leg of the Carabao Cup semi-final against Liverpool on February 6th.
Despite the challenges and uncertainties, Postecoglou remains determined and focused on finding ways to improve his team's performance. He knows that Tottenham is capable of competing at the highest level and is determined to turn their season around with the help of new signings.
