Jack Pitt-Brooke has told The View from the Lane that Tottenham Hotspur forward Heung-Min Son has some sympathy for Nuno.
Sympathy builds for Nuno
The Portuguese boss has already come under pressure at Spurs, after seeing his side lose their last three Premier League matches.
The Athletic have since wrote a piece about Nuno’s future, where they suggested that the Spurs manager actually still retains some support of the senior players.
There are suggestions that Tottenham’s more experienced men think that it is time that they stepped up and performed – rather than looking to blame another manager again.
And Pitt-Brooke claims that Son is very much part of the camp that thinks the players should be doing more.
“I want to mention Son here as well, Son is definitely part of that group of experienced players who does think that it’s time for the dressing room to take some responsibility,” the journalist said.
“You’re looking at Lloris, Son, Dier, Hojbjerg and Kane.”
Boost for Nuno
Son’s stance will come as a boost for Nuno, as while he retains the support of the senior players there is still a chance for him to turn things around.
Son also had a great relationship with Tottenham’s last manager, Jose Mourinho, and is believed to have been left upset by his dismissal.
Nuno did at least stop any more questions being asked of him, as he led Spurs to a 5-1 victory over Mura last night.
The real test for Spurs will come at the weekend though, when they take on Aston Villa, and a victory will be vital for the North London side as they look to relieve some of the pressure building on their manager.
