As Postecoglou aims to arrest a slump of four straight defeats, he has decisions all over the pitch, including at left-back, across the midfield and in the front three. But perhaps his biggest dilemma — short- and long-term — is how to get the best from Tottenham’s top-scorer, captain and talisman, Heung-min Son.
The Korean started the season quietly on the left wing but moved up front for Postecoglou’s fifth game in charge and exploded into form with a hat-trick in the 5-2 win over Burnley at Turf Moor.
Son went on to score eight goals in as many matches as Spurs’ central striker — including a double in the draw at Arsenal and one in the controversial win over Liverpool — and it was easy to wonder then if he was entering a new phase of his career as a deadly poacher, the heir apparent to Harry Kane.
