Tottenham star Emerson Royal is motivated to start more games under Ange Postecoglou
Tottenham’s exciting journey under the leadership of Ange Postecoglou has not gone unnoticed. The club’s ascent to the top of the Premier League table has captured the hearts of fans, and the players also seem equally committed to the cause. Emerson Royal revealed his determination to secure a regular spot in the starting lineup as he shares the club’s ambitions for silverware under Postecoglou’s guidance.
Currently perched at the summit of the Premier League, Tottenham find themselves in a position they haven’t held for consecutive weeks since November 2020. The team’s resurgence and newfound confidence stem from the appointment of Ange. Since his arrival in the summer, there has been a noticeable transformation at the club, with the 58-year-old overseeing a remarkable period of football that has reinvigorated the Spurs faithful. Unbeaten in the Premier League so far means that Ange has got off to just the perfect start.
However, right-back Emerson has yet to secure a spot in the starting lineup for a league game since the opening weekend clash against Brentford. However, he is resolute in his commitment to contribute to Postecoglou’s quest to capture the Premier League trophy at the end of the season.
The former Barcelona man reflected on his early-season performances and here is what he had to say in conversation with Brazil’s R7 via football.london:
“First game, I even scored a goal, in the draw against Brentford. I’m completely professional, it’s healthy competition, which we enjoy. Even though I’m not always playing, I’m strong, and when the coach needs me, he can always count on me.”
“I have the ambition to win back my position again and keep Tottenham at the top of the table, which I believe that this season we have a great chance of staying in the fight for the title.”
Emerson set to return to the XI soon?
Despite not consistently finding a place in the starting lineup, Emerson maintains a professional and determined approach, understanding that competition for places is healthy and adds to the overall strength of the squad.
He is prepared to step up whenever the coach needs him, showing his unwavering dedication to the team’s cause. He firmly believes that this season provides an excellent opportunity for the team to remain in contention for the title.
With Pedro Porro and Ben Davies in the mix as well, there is a sense of healthy competition within the squad and it would be interesting to see how Ange goes about picking his XI for the upcoming games.
