Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou has leapt to the defence of misfiring forward Timo Werner, declaring 'he's not hopeless'.
Werner is yet to score for Tottenham this season despite finding himself in prime goalscoring opportunities.
The German was denied twice by Andre Onana when he was put through on goal during Tottenham's resounding 3-0 win over Manchester United last Sunday.
Werner also failed to bury a one-on-one chance during Tottenham's midweek Europa League tie against Ferencvaros.
The 28-year-old has not scored for Tottenham since a 4-0 victory over Aston Villa last March.
