Player Mohammed Kudus

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

It’s just a knock…..
What medical staff do we employ…Dr Frankenstein and Dr Hyde?

This fellow for sure.

There's a lot of posters on here who are;
1) Nasty bits of work
2) Constant contrarians who only take the unpopular opinion
3) Follow other posters around relentlessly quoting them and arguing with them

For the sake of keeping threads cleaner, putting them on ignore is better for everyone.
If a poster is a combination of all 3, it can get petty very quickly.

Then there's the angebois. Eurgh.
I like nearly all of this post but you nearly ruined it with the last line!
It did make me laugh though. 😁
 
He will be miraculously fit to play the world cup.

He was training alone, away from the squad. What does that tell you?

I'd also wager than Spurs don't want him to hit any performance bonus that means we owe West Ham the full fee.

This guy won't wear a Spurs shirt again and will be off to a Champions League club in summer. I'd wager on Barcelona.
What's made you come to the conclusion that it's all a conspiracy and he wants to leave?
 
The season is in the bin to be honest and I expect relegation so Kudus not being fit hasn't moved me that much. The way this season has gone, this sort of shit almost makes me laugh now. Never seen anything like it.

We just can't seem to catch a break.

It sounds like he should have had the surgery at the beginning, instead we waste months, he finally starts doing some serious work in the gym/training and he's fucked.

It's pure incompetence.
 
Take a chill dude .. i'm not being aggressive , or attacking posters. just pointing out EVERY team has injuries and it's a constantly used as an excuse and it's tired ... When in reality the clubs have, certainly prem clubs, us included, have huge squads full of top end more often than not international footballers waiting for opportunities, oh and don't bother replying I've ignored you your aggressive 'my point is always right tone' isnt cool.IN ANYWAY.

Perhaps we see things in a different light. But to me Having and opinion diagnosed, picked apart and being told point by point it's been beaten and it's wrong THATS unpleasant and aggressive,and then trying to be smart, trying to cover themselves by turning the tables so to speak and accuse the poster of attacking them, THATS also aggression, sort of passive. But still confrontational and aggressive .. and personally I don't see a couple of single words in capitals as aggressive .. but hey ho we can't all get it right all the time. And yeah when rabid posters can't take the trouble to be pleasant, I ignore.

Blatant sandy vag post(s).
 
Watching the James Madison recovery video the other day it didn't feel as professional as I would like,but that might be because Madders is a bit of a character.

But I do get the feeling our medical department is Micky mouse.

We are also in the midst of an absolute freak season.

The perfect storm that sees us relegated.
 
Can't be bothered to look it up, but was he injury prone at the spammers?

This is currently the longest number of days he's been injured and his 2nd most amount of games missed. Will be joint first Sunday.
Prior injuries that kept him out of more than a handful of games included
1) Meniscus tear in Oct 2020 missing 17 games over 80 days. Quite a serious one that that requires surgery
2) Broken rib in Nov 2021 out for 84 days and 16 games.

He doesn't appear to have missed a game for Spam.

When has our medical department not been Mickey Mouse?
 
Our medical department has not been right ever since we sacked Geoff Scott because of a falling out with Ange. The current medical staff are doing genuine reputational damage to the club and I bet a lot of players don’t trust them. We clearly haven’t hired competent people.

It shouldn’t be possible to prognoses so consistently wrong and have so many setbacks soon after players return to training.

In fairness; given the way that’s things have progressed in even the last 20 years ; our Medical Team have very little to do with managing all but the most simple of ailments and injuries.

They’ve become the equivalent of a GP ; playing a crucial role in managing day to day ailments and recognising when relevant expertise is required. Modern sports-people whose bodies are worth hundreds of millions get sent all over the world to get “ fixed “ .

20 odd years ago we set the standard by appointing a “ Sports Medicine “ qualified Doctor ( from Leyton Orient of all teams) .
It was seen as a pioneering move at the time . And the fella helped save Fabrice Muamba’s life ( look it up ) to give him his due .

But today EPL footballer’s bodies are like Formula 1 Cars ; OUR medical team have essentially no say in how serious/ long-term injuries are managed. And nor should they .

Our medical team was shit long before Ange arrived.
