Tottenham’s season is going along quite nicely but Heurelho Gomes believes there’s still big areas for improvement.
Ange Postecoglou has got Spurs well on course for a place in the Champions League come May. The Australian coach has had a huge impact on the club, on and off the field.
Of course, the next big step for Postecoglou after this season is to go about improving his squad. After being back in January, Spurs are expected to throw money behind their manager again.
And speaking to the Chris Cowlin YouTube channel, former Spurs stopper Heurelho Gomes has suggested a stronger depth of squad is exactly what’s needed.
Heurelho Gomes says Tottenham need more depth
Speaking about the options within the squad, Gomes cited fellow Brazilian, £25m signing Emerson Royal, as a prime example of Tottenham needing better back up players.
“I think that they need to have more back ups. For each position. Because it’s a long season and they suffered a lot at the back with the injuries they suffered between first half of the season, you know. So I think they need to have very good back ups because they have a very good team. But they need to have a good back up. Like Emerson was playing as a centre-back. He did well to be honest but it’s not his position, so I think they have to think about it,” Gomes said.
Money needs to be spent at Spurs
If there was ever a time for Tottenham to go full tilt and back a manager, it is this summer.
With Liverpool going through a transition with Jurgen Klopp leaving, Man City’s squad getting older, and Man United also having new owners in place, the time is now for Tottenham.
Postecoglou has shown enough this season to warrant being backed in the market by his superiors.
As Gomes says here, more back ups are needed who are just as good as the first-team players and that is essentially the key to success.
If Tottenham can get it right in this summer’s window, then the sky is the limit for them. Postecoglou simply wants to win, and to so, he needs backing. It’s that simple.
