Alasdair Gold has revealed that Matt Wells never lost faith in Djed Spence and kept pushing the Tottenham right-back’s case right from the start of the season.Spence has grabbed the opportunities that have come his way with both hands, having been Tottenham’s most consistent performer over recent months.The 24-year-old’s outstanding displays have left some Spurs fans bewildered as to why the full-back did not get chances earlier in the season and why he was left out of the Europa League squad for the group stages.Ange Postecoglou admitted that he deliberately made things difficult for Spence to test his hunger.The Australian praised the defender for the way he passed the test with flying colours and insisted that he will keep pushing him to become a better player rather than allowing him to rest on his laurels.Credit: Ollie Watkins (@watkinsstudio)Alasdair Gold reveals one Tottenham figure next lost faith in Djed SpenceFootball.London’s Alasdair Gold has now stated that Postecoglou’s assistant coach, Matt Wells, deserves a lot of the credit for Spence’s resurgence.The journalist reveals that Wells had been championing the former Middlesbrough man’s cause since the summer, believing that he was a ‘perfect fit’ for Tottenham’s system.Gold explains that Postecoglou also kept a close eye on Spence in training to ensure his attitude and application were spot on before handing him opportunities.The journalist adds that the strategy has worked as not only is the defender thriving on the pitch, but he has also become popular within the squad.The man-management of Spence has been perfect from SpursAll personalities are different and have to be managed differently. Getting the best out of Spence was clearly not a straightforward challenge, with the likes of Niel Warnock, Antonio Conte, Daniel Farke and others failing to crack the puzzle.That is something that Postecoglou has succeeded in, perhaps aided by the fact that the defender has also come of age this season.The most exciting thing about Spence is that in terms of raw talent and athleticism, he is up there with the elite, and there is thus no limit to how good he can become if he is motivated to keep pushing himself.The post Why Tottenham have Matt Wells to thank for Djed Spence’s resurgence appeared first on Spurs Web.
