Tottenham boss Postecoglou hopeful over Van de Ven setback

Tottenham face a nervous wait regarding the fitness of centre half Micky van de Ven.

The Premier League giants enjoyed a 4-0 win at Aston Villa over the weekend in the battle for fourth spot.

However, van de Ven's hamstring injury did put a damper on their spirits to some extent.

Manager Ange Postecoglou said on Sunday: “He does not think it is anything too significant.

“So disappointing for him because he was outstanding again up until that point.

“Great for Radu [Dragusin] to come in, his first significant game-time in a big game and I thought he handled it really well."
