Roberto De Zerbi has confirmed that one senior Tottenham star is ready to start against Man United despite flying in from halfway around the world just two days ago.The fixture after an international break is always tricky for managers, with many players reporting back with jet lag, fatigue and even some niggles.It is especially complicated this time around, given that the break was three weeks long and several players were in action for times for their countries.15 Spurs players were away on international duty, with the last group returning only on Thursday, giving them just 48 hours to prepare for the clash at Old Trafford.Credit: @thefrederikkejensen / InstagramRoberto De Zerbi confirms Rodrigo Bentancur is ready to start for Tottenham against Man UtdWhile Rodrigo Bentancur only played three times for Uruguay, he played his friendlies in Japan, South Korea and India.De Zerbi admitted that the long flight from India to the UK is something that he will consider while selecting his starting eleven, but he made it clear that the 29-year-old has made himself available to start this afternoon.The Tottenham boss told Football.London: “Bentancur has one of the best professional mentalities. He is ready to play tomorrow. For sure you have to consider the trip and the distance from India to England, but he is already in the club. We spoke yesterday morning and he is on the same page as us. He is a player used to playing with the national team.“We bought Tonali and Fernandes, but we didn’t forget Bentancur, Bergvall. They are all the same because Bentancur, Bergvall, Tonali and Mateus Fernandes are more or less in the same level, and we can play with Bentancur, with Bergvall, with Tonali, with Mateus. But it’s not because we paid a big price [for them]. We have to play with the new players. It’s normal. It’s normal football.”De Zerbi admits we have not seen the best of Spurs’ summer signingsThe Italian was backed in a manner that almost no Tottenham boss has over recent decades, getting a pick of the players he wanted to sign.De Zerbi is confident there is a lot more to come from the club’s new arrivals over the coming weeks after a challenging start to their spells at N17.The 46-year-old added: “I expected to improve the individual performances, yes. I think so far we have not shown all the qualities, individual qualities. Also, Savio, Marmoush, Mateus, Sandro Tonali, also JP van Hecke can play much better. It’s a process, but now we have to force this process.”READ MORE: ‘They maybe deserve’ – Michael Carrick issues warning to Man United for Tottenham clashThe post Tottenham star is available to start despite flying halfway around the world, De Zerbi reveals appeared first on Spurs Web.
