# How Can Tottenham and Ange Postecoglou Adapt to Life Without Harry Kane?
The news of Harry Kane’s injury has sent shockwaves through the football world. The Tottenham Hotspur striker has been a key part of the team for years, and his absence will be felt deeply. But how can Spurs and manager Ange Postecoglou adapt to life without their star player? Mark Chapman is joined on the Monday Night Club by Steph Houghton, Chris Sutton and Rory Smith to discuss the options available to them.
## The Impact of Harry Kane’s Injury
Harry Kane is one of the most prolific strikers in the Premier League, and his absence will be keenly felt by Spurs. He has scored over 130 goals in the league since 2014, and his leadership on the pitch has been invaluable. His absence leaves a huge hole in the team, and it will be difficult for Spurs to replace him.
## How Can Spurs Adapt?
The loss of Harry Kane is a major blow, but Spurs must find a way to adapt. Manager Ange Postecoglou will have to find a way to adjust his tactics and formations to make up for the loss of his star striker.
One option is to switch to a more defensive formation, with two holding midfielders providing extra protection for the back four. This would allow Spurs to sit deeper and absorb pressure, while still being able to counter-attack quickly when the opportunity arises.
Another option is to switch to a more attacking formation, with three forwards supported by two attacking midfielders. This would give Spurs more of an attacking threat, but it could leave them vulnerable at the back.
## What Other Options Are Available?
Spurs could also look to bring in a new striker to replace Kane. There are a number of options available, including Callum Wilson from Newcastle United. Wilson has been in excellent form this season, scoring 11 goals in the Premier League so far. He could provide Spurs with a different kind of threat, and he could be the perfect replacement for Kane.
Spurs could also look to bring in an experienced striker on loan. There are a number of experienced strikers who are currently out of contract or on loan at other clubs. These players could provide Spurs with an experienced presence up front, and they could help ease the burden on the younger players in the squad.
## Conclusion
The loss of Harry Kane is a huge blow for Spurs, but they must find a way to adapt. Manager Ange Postecoglou will have to find a way to adjust his tactics and formations to make up for the loss of his star striker. There are a number of options available, including switching to a more defensive formation or bringing in a new striker. Whatever they decide, Spurs must find a way to cope without Kane if they are to have any chance of success this season.
