There was both positive and negative news on the injury front from Ange Postecoglou as he updated us on the latest team news ahead of Saturday's visit of Liverpool.
Speaking to us exclusively on our new pre-match show Inside Spurs, Ange told us that both James Maddison and Heung-Min Son have trained this week after the pair were withdrawn from the action early in our 2-2 draw with Arsenal at the Emirates on Sunday as a pre-caution. Although, our Head Coach stressed that they will be assessed once again ahead of the 5.30pm kick-off with the Reds at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
There was disappointing news for Brennan Johnson though as Ange confirmed the forward will not be available this weekend. Our summer signing from Nottingham Forest was also brought off prematurely in the north London derby as he pulled up with a muscular issue. However, Ange has said the issue is not too serious.
"Brennan will miss out this week," he confirmed. "It's nothing too serious but it is enough to keep him out (of the Liverpool clash).
"Madders and Sonny trained today but we will see they how they pull up from training but they both got through everything we needed them to get through, but it will depend on how they pull up."
