Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou has challenged Yves Bissouma to more after his impressive performance against QPR on Saturday afternoon.
The midfielder opened the scoring in his team’s 2-0 victory at Loftus Road in the 41st minute, beating several players before creating a great one-two with Dejan Kulusevski, dribbling past goalkeeper Paul Nardi and scoring into an empty net. Scarlett then scored a moment out of bounds for Spurs.
Speaking after the match, Postecoglou called on Bissouma to continue to make progress in pre-season ahead of what promises to be a crusade for the former Brighton midfielder.
When asked if the goal would give Bissouma confidence, the Australian coach replied: “Yes, but it’s just a friendly match. I need to see him do it in a game. He is capable of doing it.
“That’s our challenge for all of our guys. We know the roles are there. We want to produce it when needed. He was smart today, he was smart in the preseason and we have to keep pushing him. “
Bissouma played 28 Premier League appearances last season, injuries and two red cards also forcing him to spend vital periods of the crusade on the bench. Reinforcements in midfield are expected to be signed, as well as the arrival of Archie Gray, the 27-year-old. As a result, Old has been linked with a move away from the club.
