Must be 8 booked now
First Townsend, then Edwards, now Roles... maybe Pochettino hates Cypriots?I really don'y understand Roles not even training with the first team.....I just don't see what more he can do or a single reason he hasn't been included.
Ditto mate.. Reports must get back after this evening...I really don'y understand Roles not even training with the first team.....I just don't see what more he can do or a single reason he hasn't been included.

Andros and Marcus are though, and you get quite a few Jacks in Cyprus. It was occupied by the British for a long time.Proper Greek names those. TBF to Poch, didn’t he pick Georgiou a couple of years ago?
Using Edwards as a case in point. If it’s generally accepted among the squad that currently he’s a bit of a twat & they don’t want to play with him that may partially be why he’s not been included?
Completley agree.. Loved the no7's 'hold me back, hold me back' routine when the ball hit him. Accidently and he squared up to georgiou I think.. Or the right back going down like a sack of shit after we'd been given a free kick about 10secs earlier then making a miracle recovery.. Not for the crowd to be very vocal. Till then.. Some great shirt pulling antics and niggly kick bite scratch punch moments.. Been very well. Schooled in the dark arts.If their ever was a u23 match that you desperately wanted to win then tonight was the night because Athletic Bilbao was one of the dirtiest teams I have seen in a long time at this level of football.
All through the match they was Deliberately taking out our players and off the ball some Dark Arts was going on and Janssen was getting wound up all through the match because of it,But the thing was when ever their player got touched down they would go screaming and asking the ref for bookings.
Athletic Bilbao was not a bad team football wise they was the better team in large parts of this match but they was so Dirty I was happy they got what they Deserved......"Dirty F**kers"
do you have any evidence for that claim?
No evidence, more a summation.
I assume we aren’t just adverse to playing generational talents & deliberately self sabotaging, so there must be some issue. Especially as Pochettino suggested that they have to be accepted not only by him but the squad.
Also, I think i saw someone mention on Twitter when he scored his first goal, it was apparent only one teammate celebrated with him. That seems slightly strange?
