Tottenham Hotspur are gearing up for the most important game of their season so far, the Europa League quarter-final first-leg meeting with Eintracht Frankfurt.
Spurs have nothing left to play for this season except for the Europa League, so expectations will be high among fans when they take on the Bundesliga high-flyers on Thursday night.
Ange Postecoglou has been putting his Tottenham players through their paces ahead of a match that could prove important in terms of the manager’s future.
Postecoglou continues to show that he’s not afraid to give youth a chance, with a 17-year-old academy talent spotted taking part in the session at Hotspur Way.
