Spurs (A) Pre-Match Thread

Laporte, Stones and Mendy haven't travelled to London.

So so frustrating....such a big reason we are so far behind

So what did we rush Laporte back?

Give him a game rest him, play next week and two weeks off. Hopefully then ready to play twice a week until the end of the season. Better than overplaying him and suffering muscle injuries.

But what was he doing when he was back in training prior to his return? Wasn't that supposed to help him get back to match fitness?

Perfect game for Jose. Expect a smash and grab from him. Bringing his bus out with Son and Bergwijn tearing us apart on the counter. Son will bring his annual performance of the season with a brace.

That's it with Jose' such a contemporary, watch and learn.

You have to play to get match fit,he has been training for a while but as with all big injuries it takes time to get back to normal,he did say after the sheffield game he wanted to come off sooner but pep told him to take some deep breaths and push on

I wouldn’t underestimate Jose. We managed to lose against teams that parked the bus and had a quick player or two. We also struggle against physical teams on spot kicks. Spurs won’t miss their sitters like they did against the dippers.

Ederson
Walker Garcia Dhino Zinchenko

Jesus Aguero Mahrez

Think Pep will play Otamendi and Gundogan. Tough game and Son's pace may trouble us and he always seems to play well against us. Hopefully we will not be as wasteful as midweek
