He could just be in a salty mood, they haven’t scanned it yet and he wasn’t limping so we will see. Don’t think he has a Hammy history.
Same with Kane last year. Neither player had a history muscular problems before Mourinho.
Same thing that happened to Kane last Xmas. Run him into the ground and then of course he'll pick up an injury.
If you do what you always did, you get what you always got.. Think that's the saying isn't it?

Well Poch overplayed Kane from day 1 but Kane himself has to take a lot of blame because he rushed himself back from multiple ankle injuries to get back in time for England duty/CL final and permanently damaged his body by doing it.
Son 100% should have been rested by Mourinho since he came though, he can't just keep playing an explosive player with insane work rate, like Son, every single minute of every single game. It's unsustainable.
He's an explosive player that sprints after everything - I'm surprised he hasn't had a hamstring injury before but not shocked if he has finally got one.
Only positive I am clinging onto is that it didn't seem to happen during a sprint as such that was noticeably obvious in the first half. He came off at half time after no doubt feeling his hamstring a bit tight.
we are saved
Run players into the ground and don’t buy the appropriate back ups, this is what happens.
Seriously just fuck off. Mourinho has been crying out for a striker to relieve the pressure on Kane and Son but the club buy everyone except a striker. Fitness and training is not the problem
he’s not gonna know straight away though is he? Reckon it was mou trying to garner some sympathy
Bullshit. He overplayed Kane in the Xmas period last season and he's done the same with Son at the start of this one, despite no player having a proper pre season. He's a dinosaur in Sports Science terms.
Son’s goal and assist are what got us through the game. So no. His injury was unlucky, but the schedule hasn’t gone crazy yet after the Orient game was cancelled. Son very rarely gets muscle injuries and we needed him to play as Kane was rested.
This week coming up is where we are going to lose players to injury. It is not humane to make us play 4 games in 7 days.
So Son is now a back up striker? You said he wasn’t so what difference does it make?
Yeah not sure how we are going to cope with just Kane and Bale and Bergwin and Lucas as support.
Better get to the market quick we need a back up striker for the player who wasn’t a back up striker.
How exactly does Mourinho know the extent of the injury??
