Player Dominic Solanke

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

The guy that never gets injured just got injured playing for a manager renowned for players getting injuries.

Fuck this club and this season. Especially fuck Ange and Levy.
 
Not Solanke but in the same vein as your post, there was a video of the players in the gym last week and it was of Archie Gray walking up to do a bench press. He did 4 lifts of what looked like a much too heavy weight then walked off. I thought it bad practice at the time but now I’m wondering if they are doing lots of fitness work unsupervised and off their own backs.

Something is going wrong. Of that there is little doubt.

1.08 in this video. Johnson is putting the weights on for him. What a surprise that idiot is involved.

There's fair chunk of footage of our lads doing fitness stuff/weight training were the form is just off or it is done very sloppily.
 
Time to show that we are one of the richest clubs out there and trigger some Clauses. Start with Gyökeres.

Edit: Yes I know. Won't happen.

It was only a week or so ago the manager asked for help for Solanke with some more players. So while I suspect he’s partly to blame it’s not like he’s had many options to rest the player.
It's reminiscent of the Kane situation. No serious competition for his place or even quality back up (I hate that term) so he was flogged to death and missed months out of several seasons as a result.

This is ENIC Hotspur all over. Trying to get by on the cheap.

To dare is to do my arse.
 
Why’s he taken his trainers off to lift weights? I’ve never seen anyone do that. No support for his feet.

None of the players seem to have decent form in the gym. I saw a personal trainer complaining about that online last week.
I got to the gym daily and I see one guy bench and lift without shoes but he has these weird special things that look like feet gloves and have grip on them etc.

Radu is just wearing normal whit socks lol

It’s about natural foot form. Not like a trainer’s going to protect your from dropping a weight. Just barefoot training.

Tbf, of all our players, he seems to be relatively uninsured so I’ll let him do his thing.
 
The positive difference between Ange and Iraola is that he still manages to win games with 9 out.

Yep very positive. But Iraola too has to look at why so many of his players pick up injuries. Or you think it's ok for him to be excused just because Bournmouth are winning? I don't think it's right or normal and at some point it will be crucial for a club like ours that is expected to win trophies, get in the top 4.
