This week’s loss in Turkey is still resonating with everyone. After all, this was the first game Spurs had lost in this season’s competition, and belief in Ange Postecoglou was beginning to settle.
Will Lankshear had a torrid time of it, and few fans will be unaware that the lad not only scored but also managed to get himself red-carded in the tie that Tottenham were fortunate to keep the scoreline as low as it finished.
Will’s apology will be received well amongst fans, he comes across as a decent lad who let a moment go to his head, but it needs to be asked if younger players should be in the position where they are so exposed, in future. Rams Park was a turbulent environment, and it was the coach’s job to pick players who could cope with the occasion.
