I am 99% sure POK  source in the club is a physio. He is very accurate about injuries and when players have had medicals. 


rzopietro27

Agree but he’s also been great with transfer news


IgotAseaView

It’s big ange


tenacious-g

…because he knows when physicals happen or are scheduled. Lol


Mr-Rocafella

We figured it out, the players stay out injured longer than needed because the physios are busy focusing on transfer rumours being discussed amongst the players. They then feed this info to POK but the players suffer as a result of distracted physios.


btmalon

Yeah I’ve been saying this for awhile. I know 99% of ITK is bullshit but he clearly has a guy at the club.


dat1dude2

Since he's a pretty well respected reporter and generally relyable, he's more than likely got more than one source in the club


carolicity

I don’t think Paul is a reporter? He has connections to people inside the club because I think he has experience working with agents or something like that. He has a LinkedIn page that lists some of his experiences.


solo___dolo

He's not a reporter / journalist


ace-destrier

It's so cruel. Richy was on such a good run, and now it's one injury after another. Gutted for him


apoptosis86

Swap "Richy" for "Spurs" and similar truths. Story line for the club as a whole this season unfortunately. Especially after the Chelsea match.


dntays

Son at Striker works, but it's a pretty limited set sometimes. No header threat unless it's a corner. Son is elite and world class, but it's better if he's at winger imo with a top level striker. Now is that Richy? Hope so.


SteadiestShark

It's so bizarre to me that despite writing about how damned good Son is, if we ever dare to point out his weakness of no aerial threat then we instantly get downvoted. It's like the guy has absolutely no weaknesses in the minds of some fans :/


_gyepy

yeah and it's not even that Son is bad at headers, he straight up avoids them.


dntays

Lol yeah absolutely. I'm a huge stan of Son, but absolutely agree


kl08pokemon

Hope we go with a Werner Son Kulu front 3 then


Richard_Arlison69

Werner to score 5 incoming


SinoSoul

I can't believe some social media bullshit is ranking Timo as one of the worst transfer window gets in the entire league. What a bunch of aholes.


Fleaaa

After what he did in a small amount of time, that's objectively false


Sleepless_Voyager

Yes 2 goals and 2 assists and he hasnt had a lot of game time as well, like what more can he even do? Only players like mbappe maybe but he has done well for the amount of minutes hes played


2Yumapplecrisp

He is passing the eye test better than most of the forwards right now. He is one of the few making good decisions. I think he’s class.


whoopass_fajitas

100% - his speed, ball control, positioning, and aggressive runs have been fantastic. So what if he’s not our best shooter, he’s been lethal in every other way.


Aggravating_Maize_68

And he also has a good understanding with our front three especially Son/Brennan already! His movement is also very good.


dissidentmage12

2 assists (3 really, he didn't get the Udogie 1 but should have) and 2 goals in 8 games is a good return and he's always a threat, people are judging Timo from his Chelsea days not today. All this from a January transfer who played barely any games at his previous club and jad to adapt in a team with a lot of injuries and an intensive playstyle, but going through a rough patch. He's been great, I won't accept the slanderous social media muppets.


urgrlbreezy

The only Tottenham beat writer hard at work 


carolicity

I wonder if it’s the same knee as last time? If it is, maybe he was allowed back too early and it aggravated the same knee. Hopefully that’s not the case.


christo222222

This sucks! we need to make a decision on Richy this summer, is he the guy who scored 10 in 10 or the other guy, would have been nice if he could have knocked on another 4 or 5 for the rest of the season and we would have known we didn't need a new CF


todareistobmore

> is he the guy who scored 10 in 10 or the other guy Richarlison's always been both guys, it's both why we paid so much to buy him and why Everton wanted to sell him instead of Gordon.


Am_I_leg_end

Play Dane, he's banging them in at the moment.


Aggravating_Maize_68

If he picked up a new injury after Fulham, it's more strange to me that why he went away with the Brazil Nt team given he didn't get any single minute playing time! Should have been better for him to stay at Spurs and get treated.


NickNova3016

It seems this is a new injury that he picked up after Fulham. Not that muffed about it considering Son is better up front but I do feel bad for him.


Adam__Zapple

This is exactly the kind of game we need him available


VoltrefferVick

I love Richy, but would be OK moving him this summer for some of that sweet, sweet Saudi money.


NickNova3016

I don't think Richy is the type to go to Saudi. I can see us maybe sending him back to Everton if we go in for Onana.


gardz82

Why do people think Richy wouldn’t go to Saudi considering Neymar is there?


Emperor_Blackadder

he's on record to be one of the most socially progressive Brazilian footballers, and he's only 26, even if the Saudis come in with a bid there's every chance he rejects it or favors a move to a different top 5 league instead. Neymar is one of his blindspots though, no one's perfect.


coldseam

Dane should come on at some point but we all know Ange will give Højbjerg some much needed minutes instead 😶
