Mathys Tel showed that he had the character and personality to bounce back. Absent from the list of players selected for the Champions League in his club Tottenham (it was a choice from his coach Thomas Frank), the French international hopeful nevertheless claims to have had a very bad experience in an interview given to The Telegraph.
“I was furious for many weeks. But I said to myself: use this to show him that you should be on the list. Negative things help me more than positive things to progress”he admits. If you want to be a great player, a great person, you need to have a very strong mind.” Scorer against Leeds before the break (2-1), he then offered himself a breath of fresh air by scoring two goals for the selection. A state of form rewarded again this Sunday with a new start against Aston Villa despite the defeat of Spurs (1-2).
