The manager of Tottenham Hotspur, Ange Postecoglou, has implemented a solitary alteration to the team’s starting lineup in readiness for their encounter with Sheffield United in the final fixture of the 2023/24 Premier League season. Following a 2-0 loss to Manchester City in their previous match, their prospects of securing a top-four finish have been effectively dashed.

Tottenham’s midfield has been reorganized to incorporate Dejan Kulusevski in the starting XI, while Guglielmo Vicario will assume the goalkeeping duties, supported by Pedro Porro, Cristian Romero, Radu Dragusin, and Micky van de Ven forming the back four.
Postecoglou has underscored the significance of a robust performance and a triumph in the forthcoming match, acknowledging the team’s recent inconsistency in their performances. He has stressed the necessity of concluding the season on a positive note to secure fifth place and ascertain their competition for the following year.
The selected Tottenham lineup to face Sheffield United is as follows:
Tottenham XI:
Vicario; Porro, Romero, Dragusin, Van de Ven; Bentancur, Sarr, Maddison; Kulusevski, Son, Johnson.
Substitutes:
Austin, Whiteman, Emerson, Hojbjerg, Skipp, Donley, Moore, Gil, Scarlett.
