Ange Postecoglou insists Tottenham players will be in good shape to face Brighton after the celebrations of their Europa League win.
The Spurs squad have been in party mode since beating Manchester United in Bilbao on Wednesday, which has raised questions about the team Postecoglou will select for the final day of the season.

Postecoglou encouraged the players to “enjoy the moment” but has said Spurs “want to make it a good day” and “finish the season off strong”.
Heung-min Son and Cristian Romero have been ruled out, while Yves Bissouma is a doubt after suffering a knock in the Europa League final.
Postecoglou has said “the rest of them physically are okay” but he may not want to risk Micky van de Ven given his injury record.
“There will be a couple of absences,” said Postecoglou. “Romero has been struggling with his toe for quite a while so we’ll leave him out, probably Sonny as well because his foot has still not healed. They both made a massive effort to get to the final.
“Bissouma got a knock in the game so he’s 50/50 at the moment but the rest of them physically are okay.”
Postecoglou added: “I really feel you need to celebrate your achievements properly and that was kind of my message to the boys.
“It’s important to make the experience as memorable as possible so that when I ask them to climb the mountain again, there’s a reason for it. It’s fair to say they’ve certainly enjoyed themselves over the last couple of days but the boys are all good, we’ll be good.”
James Maddison, Lucas Bergvall and Dejan Kulusevski remain sidelined.
