Tottenham Hotspur Playing With Fire By Not Signing Players

Tottenham Hotspur are playing with fire if the North London club do not sign new recruits during the January transfer window, manager Ange Postecoglou said as the injury-hit squad continues to struggle in the Premier League.

Spurs are a lowly 15th in the standings, closer to the relegation zone than European competition spots after just one win in their last 10 games, which include seven losses.

The club have the longest injury list in the league, however, with 12 players sidelined including record signing Dominic Solanke. The English striker is expected to miss six weeks of action due to a knee injury.

Postecoglou drafted many youngsters into the team to deal with the injury crisis and said he has had daily discussions with the clubs technical director Johan Lange about trying to get some help for the players by dipping into the market.

Im not out there trying to find opportunities for the club, thats not my role at this time. There isnt time to do it, Postecoglou told reporters.
