Lack of players
A host of injuries has left Antonio Conte with limited outfield numbers for Tottenham's final four games of the season. Already without Matt Doherty, Japhet Tanganga and Oliver Skipp for the remainder of the campaign, the head coach hinted in his pre-match press conference on Thursday that Sergio Reguilon possibly may not feature again this term due to his groin problem.
At a stage in the season when every manager would like every single player available, Conte and Tottenham are going to have to do the best they can with the players who are fit as they look to secure a top-four finish. Asked in his press conference if he has handed Fabio Paratici and Daniel Levy his shopping list for next season, the 52-year-old joked that his list would be very long at present as Spurs are finishing the campaign with only 15 players.
