At last, after a season filled with defeats and only a handful of victories, Tottenham are beginning to find their way again.

Ahead of their previous win against Manchester United, supporters started to regain hope, and today, the Spurs have once again seen a glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel.

Tottenham faced Ipswich in the Premier League today, and thanks to the outstanding efforts of both the players and the manager, they secured a 1-4 victory.

Despite growing doubts over Ange Postecoglou’s position as Tottenham’s manager, this second consecutive win proves that the team can still fight back and that opportunities remain.


Heung-min Son continues to prove his worth to the team

The standout performer of the match was undoubtedly Brennan Johnson, who scored twice. Fresh from injury, he made an immediate impact and showed exactly why he is such an important player.

However, it wasn’t all smooth sailing. Another Tottenham player who deserves just as much recognition as Johnson is Heung-Min Son.

Son made several attempts to find the net, and although he didn’t manage to score, he impressed both the fans and Postecoglou by providing two crucial assists.

Speaking to Sky Sports (h/t The Spurs Web), the manager praised the South Korean’s performance.

"We allowed them (Ipswich) some moments, but in the second half, we dug in. That allowed us to execute and play our football.

"When you come to a place like this, the crowd creates some energy – we had to weather that storm. We were always a threat. Sonny (Son) was unplayable in that first half. So great to get Brennan Johnson back. He scores so many goals for us in those areas."


The captain’s future remains uncertain

Tottenham’s captain has been at the centre of media speculation in recent months.

Some claim he will leave the club for Saudi Arabia, but in reality, it remains unclear what the Spurs intend to do with him.

Son is a symbol of perseverance and deserves more from the club – a club to which he has dedicated his entire career.

His contract is set to expire in June next year, and what Spurs will decide to do about his future remains unclear.
