Yep. The only back centre back we have purchased is so sh 1 t that Ange risks his two main cb’s straight after injuries and they are both out again for who knows how long

No point telling me how much money we spend when we continually operate in the ridiculous manner

It was really poor management, we have been risk averse when it comes to injuries but it did feel like a desperate attempt. They'd only trained for 1/2 days each, it's nowhere near enough.

Micky seems to struggle in the last 20 mins or games, especially in the case or chelsea, it was a frantic pace and he hasn't played for 6 weeks. It was a disaster waiting to happen.

Really poor management by the clubs medical dept and Ange to select them when not ready.

Gray and Dragusin feels me with dread. Why not play dorrington, it's his natural position, he's a year older than Gray. Makes no sense.

This could be a very ugly week... 3 poor results vs Rangers, Southampton and United could see Ange given the boot... Not sure he'[s done enough in 18 months to justify having another Spend in Jan..... Only gone backwards

This simply is not sustainable the amount of injuries Spurs are getting. May as well just write the season off now.

Impossible to get any consistency with so many injuries to key players.

Going forward the club really need to look at who they purchase. Cannot keep buying injury prone players.

On fit CB and 2nd choice goalie to play six games in 17 days. It has disaster written all over it.

Not expecting any points in the league, and two cup losses wouldn't surprise me.

Club will be on its knees come the New Year if the injuries don't let up. No way will Ange survive. He's as good as gone.

You just cannot play him in a high line anymore. His body cannot handle it.

Personally I am looking forward to whoever steps in at CB to give their best, do a job for the team and bring home 3 points from Scotland. When the going gets tough.....half the fans on here start crying and sticking the knives in. Great fans

Sacking him isn't going to make all of the injuries suddenly go away.

Forster did great against Chelsea keeping it to 4.

What goes against Ange is that an injury crisis is beyond his control, but then who he selects and how we set up has to reflect the situation.

What he seems to be doing is the same thing regardless of whether its full strength or a GK who is less confident with the ball at his feet, an 18 years CM playing CB, a team missing the experience of Son Romero Bentancur Maddison.

We simply cannot deliver the Ange brand of football if we are shorn of these qualities but he keeps trying regardless.

JUST IN: #thfc are considering recalling Ashley Phillips from loan at Stoke City.

Spurs have a recall clause in Phillips' season-long loan deal which can be triggered from the start of January. | @Dan_KP

is that just a case of unticking the injury prone box on the scouting reports? You think Spurs have actively went out and tried to sign injury prone players?

Yes if course we all want Spurs to win in Glasgow. But this match has defeat written all over it. When have the team ever stood up when they need to?

Agree, I would prefer to keep Ange. But if the results are as bad as I think they will be from now until the New Year, then his job would be untenable.

It’s about building a proper squad that allows rotation without a huge gulf in quality. Something that Daniel levy can’t quite comprehend. He thinks he is saving a few million but now we have lost half the squad and have a couple of kids to step in.

Not a serious football club.

agree but I havent known a club that ever went out to sign injury prone players. Saying that the club needs to stop signing injury prone players as if they were being targeted or wasnt a factor when looking at a player is just nonsense.

You talk such crap.

VDV had no injuries in the season before he joined us. He had a hamstring injury the season before (20/21)...so he's hardly injury prone.

Romero and Odobert similar, nothing to suggest being injury prone. Even Richarlison's record is OK, a handful of short layoffs before he joined spurs. 18 games missed over 4 seasons at EFC. 49 missed for Spurs since joining (2.3 years).

In the same breath you'll have a go at the management for not signing Neto, a man with truly injury-prone past.

Whilst this high intensity style of play doesn't help.....


The medical staff surely needs looking into as well....

My point is, if they could be regularly rotated, they wouldn’t be injury prone. It was obvious to everyone except the parasite that one first team player wasn’t enough over the last two windows. I think it will now cost Ange his job.

there is no set rule, sometimes its just luck, Iv seen squads play loads of games and pick u few injuries Iv seen them play less games and pick up loads.

The point I was addressing originally and always was, is this notion and idiotic theory of not signing injury prone players.

Perhaps Its Ange's unique brand of football and the way we train that's causing players to suffer an unusually high number of injuries ?
