Tottenham 'surges in dependence' on winger row injury

Tottenham ace Son Heung-min 32 is expected to play in the iron-in mode this season.
Tottenham, led by head coach Angie Postecoglou, came from behind to win 2-1 away against Coventry City in the third round of the 2024-2025 Carabao Cup (EFL Cup) at Rico Arena in Coventry, England on the 19th.
Tottenham, which was being dragged 0-1 by Thomas Asante in the 18th minute of the second half, struggled to win with Spence's equalizer in the 43rd minute of the second half and Brennan Johnson's dramatic comeback in the second half.
Tottenham won the game with results, but it was an expensive price. On this day, Tottenham lost two wingers at once, turning on a red light in its management of the season.
Wilson O'Doubert, 20, who started in the 18th minute of the first half of the day, collapsed. Given that he collapsed while holding onto his right posterior muscle, he apparently had a hamstring problem. Timo Werner (28) also collapsed at the 16th minute of the second half. He appears to have a bad knee.
Both are left wingers who are Son's main posts. Postecoglou said after the match, "It's hard to say now, but we have to wait and see because O'Donbert looked quite serious," raising the possibility of him being absent for an extended period of time.
"I don't know if it's because of fatigue, but I'm sorry for both of them. Both of them are playing in similar positions. I hope it's not too big of a deal."
What's worse for Tottenham is that even Hisalisson, who can play both the front line and left wingers, is out due to injury. Eventually, if left wingers and Solanke are not showing good performance, Son Heung-min, who has to play at the front line, will not be able to rest for a while.
Mikey Moore may be considered as the left winger option. Given that Son is a 17-year-old rookie, however, the team is not sufficient to replace Son's experience and skills. Chances are high that Son will have to play in almost all games.
Tottenham is in a situation where they have to play in the Europa League this season. However, if their skills show signs of instability even after rotating the rotation, they have no choice but to deploy key players in every match. This means that they will not have time to adjust Son's playing time and arrange his physical strength.
Son Heung-min is also playing full-time for the Korean national soccer team, which could inevitably lead to overwork. He also failed to show proper skills and tiredness in the Arsenal and the "North London Derby" after his immediate return. 메이저놀이터
In the end, Postecoglou's ability to rotate and players who are injured need to recover quickly. Tottenham fans are expected to be troubled between Son's health and the team's performance.
