Tottenham boss Postecoglou: Phillips must make the opportunity for himself

Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou says Ashley Phillips is under consideration for today's clash at Wolves.

Spurs are short of defensive options ahead of the Molineux match.

Postecoglou said: "Ash is part of the first team.

"He trains every day. He's available for selection. If he gets an opportunity, then it will be up to him.

"I'm not going to manufacture things for people. Everything they get, they earn.

"If they are selected I think it's because I think they can help us win. If they're not selected, they have to keep working hard and wait for their opportunity."
