Ange Postecoglou loves watching Tottenham’s youngsters
Speaking ahead of tonight’s cup clash against Coventry City, Postecoglou singled out five Tottenham players who he just loves to watch in training.
“The three we’ve brought in, with Mikey [Moore] and young Will Lankshear as well, Wilson, Archie, Lucas, I just love watching them in training at the moment,” the Spurs boss said, via Football London.
“They want to play, they want to make an impact. They don’t look or behave like 18, 19-year-olds. Which is great for me.
“When they’re 21, they’re hopefully going to be flying and it’s part of our responsibility to develop them.
“If you want to have a successful period, you can’t just bring in experienced players to have one hit at success.”
Mikey Moore and Will Lankshear could start tonight
Mikey Moore and Will Lankshear are the two brightest talents coming out of the academy and both could start against Coventry this evening.
The teenage duo are yet to make their full debut for the club but have been impressing at youth level and during pre-season.
So, Postecoglou should hand them the opportunity to shine this evening.
