Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou insists he is not going to worry about player's "bruised egos" after saying Timo Werner's performance "wasn't acceptable" in their 1-1 Europa League draw with Rangers.
Werner, 28, was substituted at half-time after losing possession 16 times, not winning any of his five duels and only completing 69% of his passes.
The German forward's replacement, Dejan Kulusevski, scored Spurs' equaliser in the 75th minute at Ibrox.
Postecoglou said on Friday he did not regret criticising Werner in public because his views were "an assessment".
