tottenham hotspur gave myself a real chance to enter League Cup They beat Liverpool 1-0 last night, but apart from that it’s been a difficult season for the club.
Angie Postkoglu’s The team was plagued by injuries, which largely contributed to their decline in the league Premier League Table of past months.

How does Mullen compare to Son?
Well, the first thing to say is that given Son’s incredible talent and natural ability, fans shouldn’t expect Malen to reach the exciting heights he did a few years ago – and that’s just a pair of Borussia Dortmund It’s unfair to the players because so few players have the ability to do that.
However, while Son is still capable of scoring goals and assists here and there, we’re all getting older and, as most fans can probably attest, he’s struggled to have the same overall impact on the game that he once did.
