Ahead of the weekend fixture against AFC Bournemouth, Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglu defended his goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario.
The shot stopper got into a bit of an altercation with the traveling Spurs supporters, at last night’s 1-0 loss at AZ Alkmaar.

“Vic is very, very passionate about this football club,” said Postecoglu.
“He is very passionate about what we are trying to do here. He wants to win, he wants everyone on board with that.
If people think there is one bad or vindicative bone in Vicario’s make-up, they don’t know the man that I do.
The guy is one of the purest human beings I’ve ever come across.
“Whatever he does he thinks is best for the team, best for the football club because he really cares.”
Let’s see if that passion translates to an upset victory on Sunday. Yes, AFC Bournemouth is favored to win this one, and honestly, rightly so. Here is who we think will join Vic in the first team.
