Ange Postecoglou praised Kevin Danso ’s “really positive” debut for Tottenham on an otherwise miserable night against Liverpool. Spurs beat Arne Slot’s side in the first leg to boost their hopes of reaching the Carabao Cup final at Wembley and lifting their first piece of silverware since 2008.

Current captain Son Heung-min featured in that Carabao Cup final defeat to Manchester City and is the longest serving player after Ben Davies, who joined in 2014. Postecoglou can sense in the duo a desire to end the club’s well-documented 17-year trophy drought.
