There are a few players who would be given the opportunity to register their performance in the mind of the manager when they are given the opportunity and Postecoglou says that is the main reason why everyone has been training with the team.
He told reporters ahead of the game this afternoon: “Look, it is not just Gio, it is Bryan Gil, we’ve got to be careful with Bentancur a bit, it is for him, it’s for Skippy, for Eric Dier, for all these guys.
“That is why they have been training hard. They have been training with us, they haven’t been separated from the group.
“Everything we’ve done, we’ve done together. They’ve worked hard and for all of them, it is about being prepared for when the opportunity comes.

“Fair to say the opportunity comes now for a few of them. It’ ‘s up to them now to take that opportunity, but they’ve been preparing themselves for that since the first day.”
Wolves are seeking successive home league wins against Spurs for the first time since a run of three between 1964 and 1968 but Spurs had made their best to a top-flight campaign since 1961 but they lost to Chelsea in that classic Monday night game.
