His team was but not him yet.This will be the second time he’s been relegated.
I think he will stay if we go down. It will appeal to him to lead us back to glory. His England days are long gone .
Odobert out till Xmas. Won’t be able to sell him.
Gray is our best player at the moment. We ain’t selling him or Lucas. Keep the young boys.
Someone who might be a bit inconsistent but he is both creative and brave with his decision making , we have really missed him .
This will be the second time he’s been relegated.
Hardly can be classified as having been relegated, should it happen.
What part has he played in the sh!t show.
He’s not played a single minute this seasonThis will be the second time he’s been relegated.
Any possibility he's back by April?
Please be realistic with expectations. An already very injured player, one who's older, and relies on agility.
I'm definitely not expecting much.
Yeah makes no sense for him to come back before the end of the season unless he's 100% fit and I highly doubt that will happen.
Last thing we need is for him to come back into a highly charged relegation situation and do himself in again by trying too hard when he's only at 80-90%. He's at the highest chance of re-injury when he first comes back so for the sake of his long term future at Spurs (and as a footballer) I hope he takes it slow and comes back fresh after a full pre-season.

Lol, asked a genuine question and you sound like I'm slating him for not coming back earlier. I'm just lost of the time frame he's out injured for, and with some other players TBF, and was hoping for some kind posters who could have kept track of his recovery to post a useful update.
Typically ACL injuries are around 9 months. That’s the end of April. Whilst the club have put no timeline on it, injury tracking sites don’t have him returning before the end of the season.
He’s training on grass but solo I believe, and recovering from the injury doesn’t mean match ready. We *may* see him before the end of the season, but he won’t be anywhere near the level of competitiveness we need and you could argue he may never be again.
The club didn’t register him or Deki in the Champions League squad. For me that’s telling.
I would laugh, but I fear you're right
And a month to build match fitness. He’ll get fit just in time for his holidays.
Wouldn't surprise me if we never see him or Kulu in a Spurs shirt again.
Always a silver lining
Maddison is lucky though, he won't be getting his wages slashed when we go down as apparently relegation don't count if you haven't played any part of it .
I mean, even if he's "back" in April, it's not going to be a massive help. He's not just going in and playing 90 mins every game. We likely don't get one 90 min appearance.
Best if we sell him asap. He's been out injured like what, roughly 40% of the time he's been here?
Look...Simons has had long enough to show what he has.... and it's fuk all.... he wouldn't get in Arseoles team so why do we want him....
