Tottenham star feels ‘appreciated’ at N-17; Squad harmony appears top-notch

Injuries and inconsistent form have plagued Tottenham’s season, making it difficult for Ange Postecoglou to build any real momentum. The 59-year-old has struggled to string together positive results, and as the losses have piled up, so has the pressure. Postecoglou is now under heavy scrutiny for the team’s lack of success and has found himself at odds with sections of the fanbase on multiple occasions in recent weeks.

Brennan Johnson shares the support he feels at Tottenham

Brennan Johnson is enjoying a breakout season in front of goal for Tottenham. The former Nottingham Forest forward may not have had the ideal start to life at N17, but he has truly turned things around this campaign. The 23-year-old has been in scintillating form, netting 16 goals in all competitions and providing three assists, making it his most productive top-flight season to date. Johnson’s resurgence has been a rare bright spot in a challenging year for Spurs and a testament to his growing importance in the squad.

When asked in the press conference before the upcoming Europa League clash about feeling underappreciated, the Spurs forward said (as transcribed by Football.london),

“Not really, no. Within the team and the staff we have here, it’s definitely made clear to me to feel appreciated and that’s all that matters to me, to be honest. My colleagues, the staff and the manager make me feel appreciated.”

Johnson then added,

“I think the style of play really suits me. All the people in the club are super supportive of what I’ve achieved this season. Within these walls I feel really good about it.”

The 23-year-old endured a difficult start to the season, facing relentless trolling and racial abuse online, which ultimately led him to step away from social media. However, Brennan Johnson has responded in the best possible way, by letting his performances do the talking. Since then, he has been in scintillating form and currently stands as Tottenham’s top scorer this season. In a campaign full of challenges, Johnson has emerged as one of the few consistent bright spots under Ange Postecoglou.

With the Europa League quarter-finals looming against Eintracht Frankfurt, Tottenham fans will be encouraged by Brennan Johnson’s return to form. The Welsh winger netted a brace in Spurs’ recent 3-1 win over Southampton, showcasing his growing confidence in front of the goal. If he maintains this momentum, it wouldn’t be a surprise to see the No.22 on the scoresheet once again when the Lilywhites face the German side.
