What Mathys Tel did immediately after Tottenham lost 2-1 to Aston Villa in the FA Cup
If he wasn’t already aware before he arrived at Tottenham Hotspur, new signing Mathys Tel will now be getting to grips with challenges that exist in N17.
Tel came in to make his first Tottenham start against Aston Villa in the FA Cup as a result of Richarlison’s injury, th♏e latest player to succumb to a muscle issue at the club.
Ange Postecoglou didn’t have a single senior attacking player to call on whilst trailing against Villa away from home, a demonstration of just how bad the 𓃲club’s injury crisis has become.
Therefore, it’s no surprise that January recruits Antonin Kinsky, Kevin D🐟anso and Tel have al🍎l been starting immediately.
Spurs now have a week before they play next aga꧂inst Manchester United, and Postecoglou will hope to recover one or two more key figures before Sunday.
But e༺ven with those who may return, Tel has seemingly now won his starting spot on m🐭erit, scoring an excellent late goal against Villa.
Mathys Tel and Ange Postecoglou show love to Tottenham’s travelling fans
Gary Lineker was impressed by Tel, and the striker even continued to enhanꦜce his reputation among Tottenham supporters for what he did after Sunday’s defeat at Villa Park.
Journalist Nizaar Kinsella noted a moment on X at full-time when both Postecogl✤ou and his new striker gave an extended period of acknowledgement towards the away fans who had travelled to the midlands.

Postecꦆoglou and Tel were the last ones out on the pitch acknowledging the away fans, a nice touch by the pair following another disappointing defe♔at.
Sharing what he noticed, Kinsella wrote: “Ange Postecoglou was one of the last ones out on the pitch out of all the Spurs players and staff, when acknowledging t𒁃he fans after the defeat at Villa, along with new signing Mathys Tel.”
Archie Gray keeps on delivering for Spurs
A classy gesture by both, who are clearly recognising the need to keep fans onside during🦩 an incredibly difficult period for the side.
That being said, Alan She𒉰𝄹arer was impressed by how Archie Gray has stood up during this period for S🐽purs too, a youngster who ‘never hides’🍃 despite the pressure.
Gray has rarely ever appeared for Tottenham in ♔midfield, ꦍwhich remains as the 18-year-old’s preferred position.
But along wi♎th players like Djed Spence, Gray🌌 continues to perform anyway.
And perhaps with a lighter scheduleꦛ of games to come, Spurs can start building a stronger eleven around these talents, one that Tel will definitely be a part of too.
