Sessegnon was prior to Ange bringing in his yes-men to clear everyone as fit when he wanted them.Wasn’t it sessegnon that refused surgery and all that happened was he has to have surgery later.
We can add Kudus to the list of being here next season then. Kulusevski, Maddison, Xavi and Kudus in the Championship.

Hmmmm. I thought he turned up with a laptop and a training bib in a carrier bag. Thought the whole schtick was he never brought anyone with him?
I didn't say he brought them with him, like they follow him around. I said he brought them in. Like he brought in Dragusin. And Solanke. And Tel.Hmmmm. I thought he turned up with a laptop and a training bib in a carrier bag. Thought the whole schtick was he never brought anyone with him?
Lol so he’s going against surgery to force himself back for the World Cup where he will inevitably aggravate the injury and end up being out most of next season after he inevitably needs the surgery.
If he goes against the medical advice and that ends up happening he should not be entitled to a penny of his wages for the time he’s out. It’s his decision to go against the club on this.
At this point why the fuck should he listen to the club, if I'm a player I'm looking at the injury situation and doing my own thing.
True, but if they’ve advised that he needs surgery then I would assume they’re right and will have consulted outsiders. Didn’t he go to the Netherlands for his own treatment?
Go and get outside advice sure but this stinks of “I want to play the World Cup no matter what” which is understandable but if you wanna risk it I’m not sure why the club should pay for that decision if they’ve given the advice.
I think they told him to get a vasectomy.

Fair. My misunderstanding. Is the manager, is any manager, the guy who recruits medical staff though? Maybe. Would surprise me though. Didn’t think they’d have anything close to the expertise to do that.I didn't say he brought them with him, like they follow him around. I said he brought them in. Like he brought in Dragusin. And Solanke. And Tel.
He saw our established medical team out of the door in the summer of 2024, though. After he was told certain players weren't fit to return when he wanted them.
They were replaced with some pot plants by all accounts. "Professionals" that "pass players as fit" because a manager tells them to.

Maybe they just don't want to leave SpursWasn’t it sessegnon that refused surgery and all that happened was he has to have surgery later.

No, but Levy backed Ange over Geoff Scott who had been at the club for 20 years and worked under Wayne Diesal who was highly regarded by the Lewis's... i personally think this had something to do with Levy's sacking.Hmmmm. I thought he turned up with a laptop and a training bib in a carrier bag. Thought the whole schtick was he never brought anyone with him?
Fair enough if it was. If Levy was stupid enough to let Ange have final say in medical matters, he deserved the boot.No, but Levy backed Ange over Geoff Scott who had been at the club for 20 years and worked under Wayne Diesal who was highly regarded by the Lewis's... i personally think this had something to do with Levy's sacking.
And he did rock up with a carrier bag and a couple of cones, and no one else as he believed it challenged him and kept him up to date....wtfNo, but Levy backed Ange over Geoff Scott who had been at the club for 20 years and worked under Wayne Diesal who was highly regarded by the Lewis's... i personally think this had something to do with Levy's sacking.
