SALAH WOULD FIND IT HARD HERE SAYS ANGE
KOP goal king Mo Salah would struggle in this current Tottenham side, claims Ange Postecoglou.
Spurs host Salah and Liverpool in the first leg of their Carabao Cup semi-final tonight with up to 10 players still sidelined.
Boss Postecoglou yesterday revealed that out-of-form captain Heung-min Son's contract has been extended by a year.
Son, 32, has scored just five league goals this season, but his manager claimed even the prolific Salah with 18 to his name - would struggle in the same circumstances.
Backing the South Korean to emerge from a tough run of form, Postecoglou said: "Mo is a world-class player but if you put him in our team now, I'm not sure he'll have that same level of performance because of the situation we're in as a group.
