The full picture
Roberto De Zerbi informed reporters that Tottenham's Mykhaylo Mudryk will likely be ready to return after the November international break, following an ankle injury in his first game back from a long absence. Mudryk had only played 16 minutes against Nottingham Forest. De Zerbi's comments came after Tottenham's 2-0 win over Crystal Palace. The win was part of a three-game winning streak for Tottenham.
Mudryk's loan signing was initially met with skepticism by Tottenham fans, who had expected a stronger striker to replace Richarlison. However, with De Zerbi's success, the perception of Mudryk has shifted. De Zerbi's other signings, such as Sandro Tonali and Jan Paul van Hecke, have been successful, contributing to the faith in De Zerbi's judgment.
As a result, Mudryk is likely to get the benefit of the doubt upon his return from injury. The pressure on Mudryk is also reduced because of De Zerbi's overall success with the team. Tottenham fans now see the team as potential title contenders, and De Zerbi's influence is a significant factor in this optimism.

Source context
Roberto De Zerbi informed reporters after Tottenham Hotspur's incredible 2-0 victory over a short handed Crystal Palace that left winger Mykhaylo Mudryk will likely be ready to return to action after the November international break later this month. Mudryk only got 16 minutes of action against Nottingham Forest after years of being away from the game, only to predictably suffer an ankle injury immediately upon his return to action. The loan punt on Mudryk was met derisively by spectators across the Premier League, including those around N17, especially since Spurs fans thought they were going to get a much stronger replacement for Richarlison at striker who could actually score goals.
