View: Ange has problem with 100% Tottenham star after what Alasdair Gold noticed v Aston Villa

Ange Postecoglou will be hugely concerned about Tottenham striker Richarlison after the Brazillian hobbled off in the 4-1 victory over Aston Villa.

Postecoglou and his players will be thrilled after their Premier League win over Unai Emery’s side at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday (3 November).

Despite Villa taking the lead after another moment to forget for Guglielmo Vicario, with Glen Murray branding the goalkeeper a “weakness”, Spurs were able to turn things around and record a convincing win.

Goals from Brennan Johnson, Dominic Solanke and James Maddison sealed all three points as Spurs moved seventh in the Premier League, just two points behind Villa and North London rivals Arsenal.

However, it wasn’t an entirely perfect afternoon for Postecoglou, who now seems to have yet another injury concern when it comes to Richarlison.

Perhaps rather surprisingly, Richarlison replaced Son Heung-min early in the second half, just moments after the South Korean had set up Johnson for the equaliser with a brilliant cross.

However, Richarlison was able to make an impact himself. As per Sofascore, the striker completed 100 per cent of his passes, with two of those key. However, he did struggle in other aspects of his game.

The 27-year-old lost both of his ground duels while failing with his one dribble attempt. In addition, all three of his crosses were inaccurate, while he also gave possession away five times.

Nonetheless, Postecoglou still would have been delighted as the Brazillian created one big chance, providing the assist for Solanke’s second. However, it was at this moment that he injured himself and was forced off.

As per Alasdair Gold via X (3 November), Richarlison appeared to be holding his hamstring as he came off. This will be of particular concern to Postecoglou, especially having already lost Micky van de Ven to a hamstring injury.

Richarlison has only recently returned from an injury issue, and these constant setbacks seem to quickly be becoming a problem for the player, Postecoglou and Tottenham.
