Although it’s great to look back, Ange Postecoglou and Tottenham Hotspur ought to have known better than to make a mistake in the summer.

The Spurs had a busy transfer window, with Harry Kane’s future taking center stage.

And before the transfer window closed, Spurs could evaluate their team when he eventually left for Bayern Munich.

Furthermore, despite the fact that the players they did acquire have turned out to be excellent choices, Tottenham was lacking in some crucial areas.

The team shouldn’t have opened the season with three senior center backs, even with the caliber of Micky van de Ven and Cristian Romero, especially since Postecolgou didn’t intend to employ Eric Dier.

Although it’s simple to argue that Tottenham ought to have added a defender in the summer, goals aren’t always met.

But the choice made by Tottenham and Postecoglou to allow Joe Rodon to go on loan should be considered unacceptable.

Rodon is a stylistic improvement over Dier, even though he might not be the ideal Postecoglou defender.

Although Rodon is currently having a great loan at Leeds, which is advantageous for both him and his new team, Spurs need to have been more self-centered.

It becomes evident that Rodon is not considered a long-term member of Postecoglou’s team, and that’s acceptable.

The defender, who could have carried on the superb performance of Tottenham’s starting pair, is skilled with the ball.

Recently, Ben Davies has been complimenting Rodon for his ability to play out from the back, which is exactly what the Spurs need right now.

The qualification to this claim is that, given Rodon’s Leeds loan, the team ought to be able to get a competitive price for the defender come summertime.

The Welsh international’s agent, Tottenham, is reportedly willing to sell for £20 million.
