Player Mohammed Kudus

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Seemingly a bunch of amateurs compared to other big clubs. Set backs shouldn't happen. As professional sportsmen, recovery should mostly, if not always, earlier than expected. Yet our recovery period is always delayed. Are the medical staff secretly injecting some toxins into the players or what. The whole department need investigation.

Madders probably knew. Hence he treated his ACL on his own plan and schedule it seems? That's what I feel based on his videos documenting the recovery. Our medical staff only seem to check up on him periodically the progress and perhaps then feedback to the club/coaches.
Kudus went to Amsterdam for his rehab, away from our medical team, and still fucked. I've never heard of anyone missing 6 months for a hamstring tear like his. Agree our medical team are the worst, as evidenced by lots of them looking for external treatments. While thing is a cluster fuck of shit.

How everyone is always out for weeks longer, at minimum if it's any way longer term, than they should is just ridiculous.

It was a quadricep injury wasn't it?

Not that it makes much of a difference...
 
Just seen the news. WTAF is going on?

Did we build our new stadium on a native american burial ground? *checks map*
There exists a Haitian Gooner voodoo death cult?
Did Daniel build the stadium from the recycled glass of broken mirrors?
Or did someone bury schrodinger's black cat under the go-kart track finish line?

It's ridiculous. Our bad luck has now officially reached legendary proportions.

There was that building which mysteriously burned down on the site of the new stadium. Archway Metal Works. They refused to budge and then the fire happened. Perhaps the owner was a witch.

We're discussing over the last 3 seasons, rather than just this one.

FYI, the dippers lost Isak since December to his broken leg, whilst Wirtz and Ekitike were only out for a few weeks so no, they haven't lost "the best part of their forward line for significant chunks of the season." Ekitike has played in 43 games, whilst Wirtz has 40 appearances.
The only "key" players they've missed for significant time this season are Isak and Endo, and Endo is debatable as a "key" player.

All of Man City's injuries have been fairly short term, apart from Rodri, Gvardiol (recent broken leg) and Ake. So over the course of the season, they've only really had 2 key players out for extended periods, as Ake is not a key player for them.

There isn't a single team in the Prem, and quite possibly in World Football, that's had to suffer so many key players out for the extended periods we have. Not just this season, but for the last 3!
So you blame our situation on injuries...

The thing with this arguement is that it sounds like a whine, almost on a par with the dumb nuts spouting there's a 'media conspiracy or 'refs have it in for us 'and oh we've been hard done by... When in reality .. It's just football, injuries like poor ref decisions. like bad media coverage, happen, using it is just a tired , over used sad excuse.
Edit ,our Ari said he was always amazed how injured players in successful team came back far quicker than injured players in struggling teams.

If it was 'just football' this would be happening to everyone else, the fact is it isn't so what are you talking about?

Spurs are on track to have the most number of days injured in the history of PL football. 680 squads and this is the worst crisis on record.

Nope, as my previous posts have made clear. They've played a huge part in it though. You'd have to be an absolute fuckwit not to recognise that.

Ok, so now that your "every club suffers the same issues" has been shot down and burned to death, your final retort is to attack the poster.

My third sentence is confirmed.
