Then, he lost his new main man James Maddison to injury. Now, he\u2019s turned to a Spaniard flying down the wing.<\/p>\n<p>Before his injury against Chelsea, only Kieran Trippier created more chances in the top flight this season than Maddison. He made Spurs tick.<\/p>\n<p>Losing Maddison left Spurs needing a new way to create their chances. To do this, Postecoglou has passed the mantle to Pedro Porro. So instead of Maddison in the middle, it\u2019s the bombing full-back on whom Spurs are depending in attack.<\/p>\n<p>In the two games since Maddison\u2019s injury, no Spurs player has created as many chances as Porro. He\u2019s taking set-pieces now, too, and has played four times as many passes into the box as any other team-mate.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/02\/20\/78508887-12818385-image-a-9_1701549730332.jpg\" height=\"503\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/02\/20\/78508885-12818385-image-a-10_1701549733900.jpg\" height=\"485\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/02\/20\/78508843-12818385-image-a-13_1701549777228.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Ange Postecoglou lost Harry Kane early on, but James Maddison has been a great replacement<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/02\/20\/78508863-12818385-image-a-14_1701549803006.jpg\" height=\"416\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>With Maddison now injured, it is up to Pedro Porro to stop Manchester City on Sunday<\/p>\n<p>Even with Ange\u2019s high line, the last Spurs game against Aston Villa saw Porro\u2019s average position the furthest forward he\u2019s been all season.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s going to leave a lot of space behind for City winger Jeremy Doku to exploit on the back of his relentless dribbling against Liverpool.<\/p>\n<p>He was City\u2019s main man, and Ange needs Porro to be his.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s going to be one hell of a battle.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/02\/20\/78508889-12818385-image-a-8_1701549717576.jpg\" height=\"782\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/02\/20\/78508865-12818385-image-a-15_1701549841668.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>The last Spurs game saw Porro\u2019s average position the furthest forward he\u2019s been all season<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/02\/20\/78508883-12818385-image-m-12_1701549748031.jpg\" height=\"404\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>That leaves space open for Man City&#8217;s main man &#8211;
