'I just want to cry alone.'

As every member of the English Premier League's Tottenham Hotspur team erupted in jubilant cheers of happiness, there was one man who seemed to be the only one left looking downcast. It's understandable, given the circumstances. He was once expected to be the team's frontline striker, but now he's completely out of Enze Postecoglou's plans. He has become a 'backup of a backup'. His future is looking increasingly bleak.

Tottenham defeated Everton 4-0 at home in the second round of the 2024-2025 EPL at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England, at 11:00 p.m. on April 24, led by a multi-goal performance from Son Heung-min. The win was significant for several reasons. First, it was Tottenham's first win of the season. In the first round, they drew 1-1 with Leicester City.

It's also significant because it was a multi-goal victory overcoming injury setbacks to key strikers. Tottenham spent the summer looking for a frontline striker and finally landed Dominic Solanke just before the start of the season for £65 million. With Solanke up front, Tottenham were able to move Son Heung-min back to his preferred position on the left wing. It was hoped that Tottenham's attack would be more stable.

In the opening game, Solanke finally made his first appearance up front. However, he didn't have a clear impact in the first game. Still, there was hope that he could improve over time.

However, these hopes were dashed in just a few days. 카지노사이트 Solanke suffered an ankle injury during team training. It seems that he aggravated it against Everton and then aggravated it in training. As a result, Solanke was ruled out for the time being. After missing the second leg against Everton, Son Heung-min had to return to the center of the defense.

Heung-min returned to the front line in crunch time and showed his true colors. He scored back-to-back goals in the 25th and 32nd minutes of the first half to help his team win 4-0. Yves Bissouma and Cristian Romero also got on the scoresheet. Tottenham are relieved. The joy of a first win is great.

However, despite this mood, they were left feeling helpless again. He was substituted in the 22nd minute of the second half for new signing Odegaard and played around 30 minutes, but didn't have much to show for it. It's worth noting that he didn't even make the starting lineup with Solanke out injured.

TBRFootball, a British publication, summarized his performance by saying, “The £50 million player looked angry and upset despite the 4-0 win over Everton. Local pundits also weighed in. 'Even if Postecoglou's decision was the right one, he looked unhappy on the bench,' Pat Nevin told BBC Radio 5 live, 'He was obviously desperate to get on the pitch, but he needs to see all the players who came on before him do well. The implication is that his place in Tottenham's lineup is now completely overshadowed.

Even with Solanke's injury, he's seen a whopping five strikers play before him. It's clear that Postecoglou sees him as a 'backup's backup'. Worse, he has to accept this position until the end of the season. He refused to leave and said he wanted to stay with the team. It's too late to push for another transfer now. He can either try to improve his position or accept his current situation.
