Ange Postecoglou with laughable claims on Newcastle United and Tottenham

THE MAG SAYS Ahead of Sunday’s match, Ange Postecoglou was keen to claim that Tottenham had just as bad injury problems as Newcastle United.

The Tottenham boss even claiming that they had been hit even worse than Eddie Howe and his squad.

Ange Postecoglou declaring ‘Newcastle are the only other club who have gone through anything like we have.’

When I looked at the injury situation / players missing that Spurs had been facing in recent times, I didn’t think it came anywhere close to the issues for Newcastle United.

Ange Postecoglou keen to talk before yesterday’s match about how on top of everything else, Son was a big doubt, the Tottenham manager indicating this would be a huge challenge for such an injury hit squad.

Son of course was playing and had ‘some’ impact.

However, it was when I saw the respective benches that I really started laughing at those ore-match claims of Tottenham having it even worse than Newcastle United.

Eddie Howe did have Wilson and Longstaff back at last BUT clearly in no position to start, otherwise he would have done for sure!
