Chelsea's hopes for Champions League qualification dimmed significantly following a 1-0 defeat against Arsenal. Meanwhile, Fulham's victory over Tottenham has boosted their standing, positioning them as contenders for a top-five finish and a spot in next season's competition. Tottenham's struggles, particularly in managing the aftermath of Thursday night games, have marred their league performance, leading captain Son Heung-min to express frustration over crucial matches lost. Manager Ange Postecoglou criticized midfield player Yves Bissouma for his lack of impact, emphasizing the need for more confidence and performance from players as the season progresses.
"It’s been a difficult campaign for sure," said Spurs captain Son Heung-min. "But I feel we've lost too many games that we should have got stuff out of, and this was one of those games."
Postecoglou was unimpressed with Mali international Yves Bissouma's performance. "I feel Biss sometimes lets the game drift by him, he needs to be more dominant," Postecoglou said.
"Today, we needed more in that position. I had needed him to play because he hasn't played a lot. At the same time, I need him to perform."
"It is safe to say maybe Biss and a few guys lack a bit of confidence but at this stage of the season we need people to perform."
