‘100 %’: Double injury boost for Ange Postecoglou ahead of Tottenham vs Liverpool as training update confirmed
Tottenham took on Arsenal at the Emirates and came out with a point and earned the admiration of fans and pundits.
James Maddison and Son Heung-min, who both sustained injuries in the Arsenal game, are both healthy, according to Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou, who may have given a hint about his early team news ahead of this weekend’s game against Liverpool.
Under Postecoglou, the Lilywhites have shown a different side to their game and had to battle back twice to earn a draw, maintain their unbeaten streak, and win the respect of their supporters.
When James Maddison was injured and required extensive medical attention, Spurs supporters were heartbroken, but Postecoglou later assured them that both he and captain Son were alright.

Rodrigo Bentancur, Giovani Lo Celso, Bryan Gil, and Ryan Sessegnon are among the important players who historically improve Spurs when they are healthy and they continue to do well without them.
Ange Postecoglou acknowledges that Bentancur has participated in team training despite the fact that they must be cautious not to bring him back too soon. The first two are progressing remarkably well and may play after the upcoming international break.
The Spurs manager continued, “Rehab is the hardest part. Ask any player; it’s not just the work; there’s also the lonesome aspect of it. Although yesterday he was buzzing, this is good. It is true that he has a good amount of work to do, and it is wonderful to have him involved. Naturally, he was disappointed when we had to remove him from it after 30 minutes.

Midfielder Yves Bissouma once again starred for Tottenham Hotspur at the weekend against Arsenal on Sunday.
On The Stand with Eamon Dunphy, Gunners icon Liam Brady praised the Malian international.
The North London derby typically features two of the Premier League’s fiercest rivals in a cagey, edgy contest.
The match on Sunday, though, was a lot more open and exciting for onlookers who were not involved.
Despite Tottenham’s dismal track record at the Emirates, there was a lot of confidence among the team’s supporters before the game.
His team now has the flexibility to play dynamic, aggressive football thanks to Ange Postecoglou.
Because Yves Bissouma has excelled this season in a defensive midfield role, his team has been able to do that.
Arsenal icon Liam Brady admitted he thought Bissouma was excellent for Tottenham at the weekend.
The £25m midfielder was tasked with keeping Martin Odegaard quiet and it’s no coincidence the Norwegian was off the boil.
Bissouma stars for Tottenham vs Arsenal
The transformation of some of the guys who didn’t play for [Antonio] Conte watching them play for Spurs yesterday is fairly dramatic, Brady stated in reference to Postecoglou’s team’s performance.
“Conte very soon put [Yves] Bissouma, the young man they acquired from Brighton, in the reserves or he didn’t want to work with him at all.
But he was really, really good yesterday, so I believe the Spurs players are on board with Ange Postecoglou’s plan.
Fans of Spurs will be curious as to what transpired at the club during the previous season, as Bissouma struggled to break into the team under Antonio Conte.
The Italian never really gave Bissouma a chance, preferring the team of Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg and Rodrigo Bentancur.
It’s difficult to argue with Alan Shearer’s assessment that Bissouma was Tottenham’s top player against Arsenal.
Few people would have disagreed only a few months ago that the 27-year-old was a steal last summer, as claimed.
When Bentancur recovers from injury, it will be intriguing to watch if Bissouma’s play picks up another level. Tottenham is now getting the best of him.
