Steve Bruce’s side may be hurtling towards the Championship, but Dr. Tottenham is always available for last-minute house-calls. Only Spurs could spin into an injury crisis during an international break when two of the players listed as being out – didn’t even kick a ball for their respective nations… Ben Davies did not feature for Wales and Sergio Reguillon never even left Hotspur Way.
Worse yet, Matt Doherty took a knock during his 47-minute cameo for the Republic of Ireland’s World Cup qualifier against Luxembourg on 27.03.2021.
Physioroom also lists Heung-Min Son as being out until at least the the 4th of April.
For the Toon, Allan Saint-Maximin, Callum Wilson, Martin Dubravka, Fabian Schar, and Isaac Hayden are also all in doubt of next week’s Premier game.
The Aston Villa game came as a welcome relief, but it is obvious from the unrelenting scrutiny that José Mourinho isn’t going to catch a break from some fans or the press – regardless of results.
