Julian Draxler

has not been in a good form in the current season. A combination of injuries and underwhelming performances saw the player fell out of favor at Parc des Prince, but a strong performance against

Nice

might turn things around for him.

Mauricio Pochettino

’s team won their Saturday match against Nice with a 2-1 result and Draxler was a key player for his team’s attacking line.

In a post-match interview, Pochettino has spoken about Draxler’s performance.

“I’m happy with what he did today, he knew how to read situations when the team needed him,”

Pochettino said.

“He made the connection between the offensive and the defensive on several occasions. I’m happy for him that he scored. It’s very good for his confidence.”
