No wonder José Mourinho was in poor humour discussing the impact of the Interlull on the Tottenham squad. Suddenly we’ve so many absentees, it’s bewildering.
Erik Lamela has a calf/shin/heel injury and will not be available today. Japhet Tanganga‘s back injury finally resolved itself, and now the boy’s picked up a thigh injury. Whilst Matt Doherty managed to contract COVID-19 on his Interlull travels.
The late fitness tests include Harry Winks with an unspecified knock for Spurs, plus Sergio Aguero (thigh), Raheem Sterling (calf/shin/heel), and Benjamin Mendy (match fitness).
Manchester City will be without Nathan Ake (hamstring) and Fernando Luiz Roza (upset tummy).
Tanguy Ndombele and Steven Bergwijn are now deemed good to go.
This is lined up to potentially be a very close game, and if I can give you one piece of advice, then it is BTTS (both teams to score).
60% of Spurs’s last 20 home league games have ended with Both teams scoring. They won 6, drew 1 and lost 5 of those games, and 50% of Man City’s last 20 away league games ended with both teams scoring, they won 4, drew 3 and lost 3 of those games.
COYS later. They’re ALL afraid of us. Dem ALL know we COME FE CONQUER
I’m not surprised japh has over done it on the training pitches. He just wants to impress again and get back into the team. Calm down japh son
I would like to see Vinicius getting a start with Kane and Son because there will be a time when we need to use him instead of Harry and he hasn’t had many mins to acclimatise to the PL.He can offer everything Moura,Lamela or Bergwijn are capable off.
Tanga’s falling apart, with Coco.
