Tottenham Hotspur head coach Ange Postecoglou gave a scathing assessment of Timo Werner’s performance in the team’s 1-1 Europa League draw with Rangers on Thursday, saying the forward’s performance “wasn’t acceptable.”

Without improvements at both ends of the pitch, Spurs’ current trajectory suggests it could be seen as a year of regression rather than progress.
