First, Ange Postecoglou lost Harry Kane before a ball was kicked. Then, he lost his new main man James Maddison to injury. Now, he’s turned to a Spaniard flying down the wing.
Before his injury against Chelsea, only Kieran Trippier created more chances in the top flight this season than Maddison. He made Spurs tick.
Losing Maddison left Spurs needing a new way to create their chances. To do this, Postecoglou has passed the mantle to Pedro Porro. So instead of Maddison in the middle, it’s the bombing full-back on whom Spurs are depending in attack.
