Should Ange Postecoglou play Dominic Solanke or Heung-min Son as his main Tottenham striker?

uh let's talk about hun Minon who started as Tottenham Central Striker on Saturday scored twice so I'm wondering in my mind if salanki is fit what does Posta kogo do does he put him straight back into the number nine position or does he leave son there how does he work this one out yeah it's a really interesting one it really depends on what an Poo's game plan is especially regarding the center forward because son and salanki are two very different types of forward so you know we're going to bring up the touch map between the two players you know so you've got salanki is very much a penalty box player and Son now these are son's touches when he played as a central Striker against Everton at the weekend he only had one touch in the opposition penalty area and that was for his goal where he tackled Jordan pford and then put it in the back of the net so yeah it really depends on what an polu uh wants to do does he want to play Dominic salanki who against Leicester was occupying the center halves well does he want to go with someone who's going to play a bit more on the break play more in this area of the pitch right here so yeah it's it's it's it's all down to POS cogle but you'll think he might he'll make the right decision oh of course assuming sank is fit then uh son does he go left wing then and then the selection dilemma moves to the right side Brenan Johnson the start of the opening two matches of the season however wilon not impressive wasn't he on the weekend caught the eye against Everton so could he then move to the right what sort this one out for me yeah I was really really impressed with Wilson odar against Everton at the at the weekend you can see that he really out trumped Brendan Johnson in terms of taking on the opposite man you see he had six attempted take on that's more than anyone on the pitch that day and Andre pooku said he really liked how he just kept going even though they weren't always successful he kept going um so yeah as you can see from these stats you know odar is pretty much better than Johnson in every single department so it really sort of that's another dilemma for for POA kogo to really tackle but yeah really impressed by Alder B I think he could start right and maybe give Bren Johnson a little bit of a break yeah it's nice problems to have isn't it because that's not the only selection headache POA has let's have a look at the Spurs starting 11 against Everton dejan kesesi and James Madison both started in attacking Midfield and they impressed so will they keep their places St james' Park Sunday well it was a really really attacking lineup from Spurs you've got kulesi and Madison playing as as a sort of attacking Central midfielders but Madison's the interesting one for me because if we look at Madison's stats he's actually been one of the most creative players in the Premier League this season not just for Spurs as well so he's got two assists he's you know he's second only Kevin De sorry only buaya Saka uh has more expect assists only Trent Alexander has more you've got uh yeah lots you know really good start from Madison but can we judge Madison too much because he always has that drop off in the second half of the season but really good start after his Euro disappointment yeah you can see we have a drop off he starts really well like he has done um so yeah you know but he always seems to drop off part from this season here so yeah I think you know let's Reserve our judgment for Madison until the end of the season [Music]
