“Tottenham Fans React to Mathys Tel’s Impressive Debut Against Liverpool”

Tottenham Hotspur have been knocked out of the Carabao Cup after Liverpool turned around a 1-0 deficit from the first leg of their semi-final, securing a 4-1 aggregate victory. Despite heading to Anfield with the upper hand, Ange Postecoglou’s side found themselves under pressure from the start and never looked likely to salvage the game.

The result adds to a disappointing season for Spurs, who are now hovering just above the Premier League’s relegation zone. However, it wasn’t all bad news for Tottenham fans, as they got their first glimpse of new signing Mathys Tel in action. Although he started the game on the bench, he was called on in the 46th minute to replace an injured Richarlison. In his brief time on the pitch, Tel impressed, prompting fans to share their thoughts about him on social media.

“Tottenham Fans Praise His Leadership on the Field”

He was seen motivating his teammates to give extra effort.

Despite his team being outclassed by Liverpool, the match wasn’t ideal for Tel’s Tottenham debut. However, fans were still impressed with his performance. His work rate and leadership shone through as he rallied his teammates, urging them to push forward and challenge the Reds.

For most of the match, Spurs appeared demoralized, but Tel refused to give up, and fans certainly took note. One supporter took to X (Twitter) during the game, writing: “Tel is literally telling the players to push forward. This is embarrassing…” Another echoed the sentiment, adding: “Look at Tel btw, telling his teammates to press and then getting the crowd going.”

A third fan shared a similar view but expressed concern that after Wilson Odobert convinced him to join Spurs, Tel might already be regretting his decision. They said: “When a 19-year-old Mathys Tel, who’s just arrived, is having to wave on the rest of your players to press, and they still won’t, you know you’re in trouble. Feel sorry for the lad, he’ll be gutted to be at Spurs.”

Others felt the same way, with one supporter stating: “You honestly couldn’t blame Tel for thinking he’s made a massive mistake in joining us.” On a more optimistic note, someone else saw the leadership qualities he displayed and believed he had a future with the captain’s armband, saying: “Tel’s young but already captain material.”

Not all feedback was positive, though. One fan thought Tel struggled with the physicality of the game and would face challenges in the Premier League. They commented: “Tel’s gonna struggle with the physicality of the prem by the looks. Best get used to it, kid.”
