Johnson reportedly deactivated his Instagram

Forward Brennan Johnson can be a "significant contributor" for Tottenham Hotspur if he gets through his challenging spell, says head coach Ange Postecoglou.

The 23-year-old scored a dramatic late winner for Spurs in Wednesday's Carabao Cup victory over Championship side Coventry City, but remained muted in his celebrations.

The goal came after Johnson reportedly deactivated his Instagram account because of criticism in the wake of the derby defeat to Arsenal on Sunday.

"With Brennan, you know I spoke about it [on Tuesday] that he comes in, works hard at his game and when you're an attacking player, you're always kind of getting measured against certain things," Postecoglou said.
