This is what pre-season is about...finding solutions and building players towards optimal fitness.

If we can somehow shift Cucurella on they’d be an opening in the squad for Maatsen.

I think Pochettino may have already identified Chilwell as one of his captains, if yesterdays match is anything to go by.
As a result...possible Cucurella finds himself out of the starting 11 and/or matchday squad come the first match of the season, in which case will force him to make a decision....engineer move away🤞
