Postecoglou drops £19m man and starts phenomenal player: Early Tottenham XI vs Aston Villa

On Sunday, Tottenham Hotspur, led by Ange Postecoglou, will play Aston Villa in a crucial match.

Despite having a game in hand, Tottenham is five points behind Villa in fourth position going into the match. Spurs would drop eight points behind the leaders in the hunt for a top-four finish if they lost at Villa Park.

Ange Postecoglou’s team overcame a 1-0 deficit at home to defeat Crystal Palace 3-1 in their most recent match.

On that particular day, Postecoglou’s adjustments paid off, as Brennan Johnson recorded two assists after coming off the bench.

As a result, the 22-year-old may start on Sunday, pushing Dejan Kulusevski into midfield and Rodrigo Bentancur to the bench.

Tottenham’s starting lineup for the match against Aston Villa

Guglielmo Vicario is certain to stay between the sticks, and the other four players may not change either.

Pedro Porro did not play in either the victory over Palace or the loss to Wolves, and it is still unknown whether he will be healthy enough to play.

In that scenario, Emerson Royal would stay at right back, and the back four would consist of Cristian Romero, Micky van de Ven, and Destiny Udogie.

Yves Bissouma will probably stay at the base of midfield since Rodrigo Bentancur has been having form issues lately.

Bentancur participated in the box-to-box position versus Palace due to questions over the fitness of Pape Matar Sarr. However, Johnson took over for the £19 million player just after the hour.

Postecoglou then moved Kulusevski into midfield with James Maddison and Bissouma as a result.

Although it would be dangerous to name this midfield trio away from Villa, Tottenham could be able to expose Villa’s high defensive line.

Spurs would definitely have a lot of speed up front with Heung-min Son, Timo Werner, and Johnson in the front three.

Johnson was outstanding on Saturday, and in our opinion, the “phenomenal” winger ought to have the opportunity to make an early impression at Villa Park.
