Ange Postecoglou has decisions to make in various positions across his Tottenham Hotspur side despite some new injury doubts ahead of the Premier League match at Ipswich on Saturday.
The Australian managed to get five players back from injury for Sunday’s 1-0 win against Manchester United in Guglielmo Vicario, James Maddison, Destiny Udogie, Brennan Johnson and Wilson Odobert. Much of Postecoglou’s line-up will depend on how much the Spurs boss will want to rotate with Wednesday night’s Premier League match against Manchester City in mind.
The Australian might want to keep a winning team to get that momentum building but will also be aware that some of the previously injured players need minutes to get sharper and others need rest to help them steer clear of new injuries.
Pedro Porro, Dejan Kulusevski and Son Heung-min top the charts for minutes played and some of them might be handed an extended rest after the United match but the lack of attacking options will likely prevent both Son and Kulusevski getting a rest on the same night.
There are also plenty of full-back options now with Destiny Udogie fit and the midfield has plenty of combinations for Postecoglou to choose from.
Here’s the Tottenham team we reckon he might select:
