We will persevere.
Dier is back. Sissoko is close - apparently. That allows rotation - with Skipp also in the mix - at CM.
Lucas is close - Son will be back after a couple more league matches.
We probably can't go 100% against Palace in FA Cup - we'll need a slower pace, and probably Skipp and Foyth, and maybe even GKN starting.
I hope we do bring in some bodies - but I hope they are long-term targets not simply short-term fixes - because the problem will fix itself by the time those players are really able to contribute.
Still not convinced by our medical team. Dele 3rd hamstring injury since the world cup.... small things like not helping Kane off the field against united. How many 'small injurys' do we have that end up being a month? How can wanyama still be out after about 2 yrs of rehab..Is it the demands of Pochs high intensity in training?? starting to become to many adding up to call it unlucky for me.
The other issue here is that being down to the bare bones, we may find that Winks and co who are now filling in only having recently come back from injuries themselves may again become injured by having to play every game. Meaning even when we get players back, we are still lacking from the bench.
Someone on here the other day mentioned Jay Rodriguez. Ok, not glamorous, not a marquee signing we all want.. but could hit the ground running in terms of premier league experience, and understanding what Poch wants to see.
The guy who suggested it got a lot of “hardly exciting is it” type answers. To be honest, I can see the benefit though. Can also play a few positions.
Even if we do sign 2 players this week, we'll have to rely on more from our academy as I can't see any new player to go straight in against Chelscum on Thursday or Crystal Palace on Sunday.
No pre season
Struggle to believe a limited pre season has anything to do with reoccurring injury’s And helping Harry Kane hobble off a pitch

There’s a video of Dele jumping up when we scored. I really don’t think he’d be doing that if it was a serious tear.
Dele wasn’t fully fit at World Cup, and then did hamstring with England over autumn internationals. Agree- HK injury unconnected.Recurring muscle injuries is absolutely a symptom of lack of base fitness. And Kane walking off is a total non issue
Haha, we've signed one player in 18 months, and you think we're gonna sign 2 by next week?Even if we do sign 2 players this week, we'll have to rely on more from our academy as I can't see any new player to go straight in against Chelscum on Thursday or Crystal Palace on Sunday.
