A round-up of the latest Tottenham news, including updates on Dejan Kulusevski, injury news and fixtures compared.
Dejan Kulusevski assessment
Dejan Kulusevski was critical of Tottenham‘s defending in their defeat to Wolves at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Spurs conceded twice to the Midlands outfit, either side of the halfway break, to drop out of the top four.
Speaking to Spurs Play after the game, he said: “The worst feeling. I hate to lose. There is nothing worse than this and now we have two weeks where we cannot win a game. It’s tough but I think we should not lose. They’re a good team but when we scored 1-1, we had to go for the win.
“We had a lot of chances but we didn’t take them and then they score on the counterattack… I saw them in quite a difficult place after that goal and we created a lot of chances. But we have to be disciplined, we conceded too many counterattacks.
“They could have scored even more goals so you can be positive and play good but you always have to protect your goal. We didn’t do that good enough today.”
