Spurs are set to face Manchester United in a crucial cup final, seeking their first trophy since 2008 and their first European trophy in over four decades. Manager Ange Postecoglou emphasized the importance of shutting down key players like Bruno Fernandes. Despite Son's recent recovery from injury, he will start on the bench. Postecoglou highlighted the need for a strong, hardworking midfield, as Spurs cope with injuries to other creative players. He aims to adopt a disciplined approach to minimize United's impact while maximizing their own running power in the game.
Postecoglou made it clear Spurs must pay particular attention to Fernandes, stating, "He's one of those players. In big games, it's sometimes moments that change games. He's that player."
On Son's role, Postecoglou noted, "It’s disappointing losing guys like Madders, Lucas and Deki because they’re very creative in there. But I think we’ll need running power tonight."
