Tottenham, led by coach Enze Postecoglou, will play Brentford at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England on the 21st (Korea time) in the fifth round of the English Premier League (EPL) in 2024-2025 season.
Ahead of the kickoff, the starting list was released. Tottenham use a 4-3-3 tactic. Son Heung-min, Dominic Solanke and Brennan Johnson lead the attack. James Medicine, Rodrigo Bentancur and Dejan Kulusevski are located in the midfield. Destiny Udoji, Mickey van der Penn, Christian Romero and Pedro Porro are located in the four back. The goal is guarded by Guglielmo Vicario. Of course, the captain is Son Heung-min.
Tottenham are desperate for a turnaround. In the opening match, the team drew 1-1 with Leicester City and lost their pride. They cheered with a big 4-0 win over Everton in their home opener. However, they were subsequently defeated by Newcastle (1-2 loss) and Arsenal (0-1 loss). He almost suffered a humiliating loss in the round of 32 strongest teams of the Carabao Cup (Carabao Cup) against Coventry City (second division) during the week. At that time, Tottenham was dragged away by giving up the first goal to Coventry in the 18th minute of the second half. Tottenham won 2-1 in the 43rd minute of the second half by combining Jed Spence and Johnson's come-from-behind goals in the second half. I escaped from the brink.

This is not the end. He made controversial remarks after the defeat at Arsenal. On this day, Tottenham bowed to Arsenal's set-piece shot. Tottenham has reportedly allowed 18 runs in set-piece situations alone since Postecoglou's appointment. But Postecoglou said "People don't think I care about set pieces. I always try, too."
Some are aggravating the situation by shaking Son Heung-min 'Captain'. Recently, the British media Football Fancast reported that Tottenham and Postecoglou could consider handing over Son's captaincy to another player. Son Heung-min has yet to renew his contract. He said he could not share his future with Tottenham. There are even absurd claims that Son Heung-min is the `worst captain.' Son Heung-min wore Tottenham's uniform through the transfer window in the summer of 2015. He scored 164 goals in 413 games for Tottenham. It is the living legend of Tottenham.
Tottenham in crisis aims to win with Son Heung-min at the forefront.
