Tottenham Hotspur will travel to Aston Villa in the 37th round of the 2024/25 Premier League. Postecoglou said in an interview that his team will deal with injuries in a creative way, but also stressed that the team must not have any more player injuries.

After losing 0-2 to Crystal Palace at home in the last round of the Premier League, Tottenham Hotspur is currently ranked 17th in the standings with 38 points, which is not an ideal result.

It is worth noting that Tottenham Hotspur will participate in the UEFA Europa League final against Manchester United next week, but Tottenham Hotspur has serious injury problems. It has been confirmed that Kulusevski, Maddison, Lucas Bergwald and Draculasin will not be able to play.

Tottenham Hotspur manager Postecoglou said, "We have been looking for creative ways to deal with the injuries of the lineup, and we will find a solution this time. I don't think we will completely deviate from the existing system structure, but at the same time, we must find the most suitable solution under the existing conditions."

"We have to get through the game against Aston Villa and then see the overall situation after the game. We can try different combinations and see how it works, and then make a final decision based on that. If a player plays a convincing performance tomorrow, then I might adjust in that direction."

Postecoglu said, "We will weigh all possible options, that is, if we want to make bold adjustments, such as changing the position of the players, it is best to do so within the original stable system. From the perspective of the team's basic playing style, we will not make any changes, whether it is tactical ideas or formation settings, which will generally not change. If we only change the position of a certain player, it is still possible to achieve good results."

“Honestly speaking, under normal circumstances we could use this game to adjust our condition, but our current situation is not normal. Our problem right now is that we can’t lose any more players. Considering the goals and situation we are facing, the current squad is too tight.”

In addition, Postecoglu also said, "Every time a starting lineup is arranged, the goal is to win, but each club also has its own current and priorities. This is crucial for those teams fighting for the Champions League qualification. I fully understand the importance of every game and every decision, and the situation we face is actually exactly the same."

"We also have the expectation of qualifying for the Champions League and there is a trophy to win. It would be a real dereliction of duty if I didn't do my best for the club and strive for the goal."
