Just read a stat that Lamela has now been injured for almost exactly 2 entire years out of his Spurs career. <doh>

EDIT: And by 'years' I don't mean 'seasons'. I mean 365 days, twice over.

That is nearly 3 seasons out of 6 (about 50% attendance rate) .
That + his current age means I will be very surprised if he survives the summer.

Begs the question why on earth we handed him a 4-year contract in the summer, bumping his wages up to £80k. He'll be difficult to shift as frankly he isn't good enough to play for most teams who could afford those wages. Could Everton be tempted?

Maybe Leeds United if they come back up? <whistle>

The simple reason is his previous contract would have expired this summer, albeit it had an option to extend it by a year
 
Apparently Winks has undergone surgery today. Can't say I'm surprised unfortunately, all the noises from Poch since he picked up the injury have pointed in the direction of a possible underlying issue that needs a more permanent solution than simply rest.

The injury situation at our club us actually beginning to worry me. I thought last season was bad but this season has been a joke. Even players who haven't been playing regularly disappear for months on end with seemingly innocuous problems.

Are our physios to blame? Is Poch's training regime too demanding? Or is it simply terrible luck?
