Bloody el that’s not good news re Kovacic

 

[Blu3m00n91]

I’d start Nico O’Reilly we need legs in there. Big ask but no choice tbh

 

[ninjamonkey]

These fucking journalists just don't understand basic communication do they? When pep said what he said about staying because of the 4 losses, to anybody that's ever interacted with another human, it was very clear it was tongue in cheek and not to be taken literally.

Fast forward to today and the first thing one of supposedly the top journalists in the country asks is about that comment that he has taken very literally. How are these cretins in such jobs? I'd lose my mind having to talk to these fucktards every couple of days, pep should just go full sarcasm all the time.

 

[K-Bo]

Would assume walker at rb and Lewis and gundo as a double pivot?. It’s getting grim

 

[Legal Alien]

Kovacic is injured for 3-4 weeks :-(

FFS, we didn't need that.

Instead of putting square pegs in round holes, put Jacob Wright at the 6.

 

[Bellamy's Caddy]

After the news of Peps signing surely this is the lift we need to push on. Just like when the charges came out in 2023 it seemed to galvinize us ( not a spurs pun) . Even though this is spurs who use us as their cup final game we should be fired up and shove ossie dream, chas and dave, year of the cockerel, year ending in 01 down their fuckin throat. No I'm still not over 1981

It needs to be (and should be) a bearpit tomorrow night. Four away games on the bounce (not been mentioned in the media obviously) and four losses. Shit loads of injuries and the team need us.

But then we've got the huge boost of Pep's contract extension, and Rodri presentation.
As Pep said 'We're tired? Fuck you'. Hopefully the lads are going to put 4 or 5 past spurs, but a scruffy 1-0 will do. We need the points.

Guessing gundogan and Bernie together

We just can’t do that again. He’s going to have to trust Wright or O’Reilly or play Johnny Stones

Outside chance of Nunes too.

 

[youngbob]

Ederson
Walker, Akanji, Gvardiol
Stones, Bernardo
Savinho, De Bruyne, Foden, Grealish
Haaland

Can cope much better now Stones is back.

 

[Blue Maverick]

Clubs need to start making national teams pay the wages if a player comes back injured. Pep is rightly pissed off as we all our.

 

[Ric]

Big blow to lose Kovacic. God knows what midfield we'll put out tomorrow. At least it's been confirmed that Romero is definitely out for them, so they're missing both first-choice centre-halves.

I could be wrong but I do think they have to pay something

They do, don’t they?

Club Protection Programme

The FIFA Club Protection Programme (CPP), initially put in place at the expense of UEFA to cover the UEFA Euro 2012 in Poland/Ukraine before being taken over by FIFA following the approval by the FIFA Congress in 2012, is an insurance policy covering the injury risk of national team players.
