Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports
Maddison hasn't trained yet. Meant to be starting training next week.
Would be a massive surprise to see him on the bench
Hmmmm
Just in fucking time eh?
Still doesn’t help them score at that’s their biggest problem.
Also casimero is a fat piece of shit.
Injury news from Ange:
"Both obviously came off in the last game," Ange began. "Ben has got a hamstring injury so it'll probably be around four or five weeks (out for him).
"Gio is similar but it is a little bit more complicated. We're still trying to get to the bottom of it. I think he is having another assessment on Monday but he will miss this game (United clash).
"Dane Scarlett also picked up a knock in training so he will miss out this weekend as well."

fucking GLC and injuries. His body just can't do prem football.
Yep hopefully he Impresses in a few games before the end of the season and we can move him on.
Martinez is the only one that improves them. The rest are done or hopeless. If Martinez plays we have to start Werner central and run in behind him. He won’t though as I think he’ll start on the left.
Is it just me or are there less training videos from the training pitch? Get the feeling we are not letting our secrets out and we might see a sneaky madders appearance on Sunday.
But for offsides, Richie could have scored about 8 goals in the last three games. It's his positioning that's more of an issue right now than finishing.
Think its got to be the way. Ange gave him a fair shake but he's just not available enough. Good little player and if he was available enough he'd be an easy keep but he's not.
Kinell.
And some were asking if we really needed Werner.
Said Romero might be tight for the weekend...Emerson starts with Romero on the bench then most likely.
The only one to join the main group today is Romero and that's it I think. He's just started training so it's fair to say it might be a bit close this weekend.
Confirmed that Dragusin got his work permit on time?
Sunday would be 1 training session?
Emerson and VDV most likely to start surely?
I don't keep a tab on other teams transfers, but the numbers you posted sounded like they were magnitudes out. Then I checked....Seriously?
SERIOUSLY?
OUR FRONT LINE is memes?
Not like... 95-mil-1-goal-Anthony?
Not like...75-mil-better-signing-then-Kane-1 goal- Hjojlund?
Not like...50-mil-ages-ago-should-I-stay-or-should-I-go-Martial?
Not like.... englands-generational-talent-Barcelona-wants-him-3-goals-Rashford?
I mean Werner did not live up to expectations in Chelsea, sure.
But with first half of his first EPL season he was on 4 goals + 5 assists (!) Hjojlund sits on 1+0 right now.
So whowever you look, Hjojlund is 4x (if not 9x) as meme as Werner ever was.
Sure, we need better than Richie in the long term. But make NO MISTAKE - he has scored as many EPL goals than these FOUR combined.
And we are meme-frontline?
Not to mention Slabhead and When-you-get-Pep-from-Wish-baldy ?!?
EDIT: not saying that we are guaranteed to win or anything. We have to still perform very well in this one, no doubt. But just from the-meem-material point of view - they are 10x more memic then us. Literally THIRD OF A BILLION poured into the frontline that has 6 goals between themselves ...
Looks like if you're talking € you're about right.
What the fuck are United doing? Why would you pay that sort of money for Hojlund? He's a kid who scored 9 league goals in a season in Serie A. I just don't get it. OK there probably is a "you can afford it" tax on Man Utd, but fuck me. Van Gaal said they have to pay £10m more than anyone else. Even if that's the case, who was going to be paying 70 or 80 million Euros for the boy?
They have been criminally mismanaged.
And I love it.
Shaw, Martinez and Casemiro change their side. Good players
