At least people will stop loaning about team selections. With this injury list, the starting 11 make it on default.

People saying it’s good he’s out is crazy. He’s usually our best midfielder when he plays and Ndombele doesn’t.. At least he can mix it physically which is crucial in the PL.

We are properly fucked now unless Tanguy can stay fit. Winks and Skipp and Dier ??‍♂️

Our injury record since the beginning of last season is appalling. We don't just get minor injuries either. Always results in at least two months out. (Lloris 3 months, Lamela 2 months, Kane 2 months, Davies 3 months, Foyth 2 months, Lo Celso 2 months, NDombele on-and-off 3 months and now Sissoko 3 months). Crazy.

Wonder if that will prompt Levy to splash the cash. Or will Jose get creative and try out Foyth in midfield... or perhaps even Lamela?

Can’t say I’m disappointed. If it forces Mourinho to play more footballers who want to control and pass the football then I’m all in.

I'm not surprised by this injury and Kane's too. It's ridiculous how some of these players are overused without adequate break. It's long overdue to happen to Alli and Son too.

Could be a blessing in disguise really as it should force us to go into the market or play Skipp.

Skipp it is then

I know what you mean, but in a squad of players who look like they are all on sedatives Sissoko at least looked like he at least has some drive still in him.

Another injury we didn’t need and a long term one too.

For this Jan TW window we defo need a DM especially now as Sissoko is out, We need someone who scraps hard for team and adds bite , steal with great work ethic someone with experience that could just step in, im not sure we'd get anyone on perm this window as long term that would fit in almost instantly. I dunno if possible but would love someone like Arturo Vidal hes got that bite, agression he works so hard for the team and maybe some of his demenour can rub off on the lads too, he is also good at making attacks too so will transition the ball forward quickly too. He may not be long term but maybe a loan would help fill that void a bit at least

In the end maybe we should have listened to that lemon guy who said the players needed to drink their own piss. This is getting crazy now.

Do our medical team try to solve everything with trepanning or something? Could also explain our brain dead performances..

He is not our best midfielder. Yes he runs around a bit but he hides when the defence have the ball, is limited when on the ball, can't tackle, can't pass forward and is not a central midfielder.

What are you talking about? He is our best performing CM when he plays. He shows loads of drive and effort and can transition with the ball well. You’re not telling me that Winks or Dier perform better for us when they play are you???‍♂️
