24/25 Injury Thread

Sounds like we’ll be without Maddison on Thursday, hopefully he’s fit for the final and Kulusevski can rediscover his mojo in the meantime.

Team news | Ange Postecoglou’s update on James Maddison and Dominic Solanke | Tottenham Hotspur

Ange Postecoglou had optimistic news on Dominic Solanke before a ‘less optimistic’ update on James Maddison after our 1-1 draw at West Ham on Sunday.

Speaking to our Review Show from the London Stadium, Ange was asked for an update on the pair and told us: “Dom’s improving every day. It made sense not to bring him along today, but we’re pretty confident he’ll be right. Madders... less optimistic. We’re still getting some more information, but that could be more of a concern for us.”

Speaking later in his press conference, Ange said on Madders: "No, it doesn't look great, but we're just waiting for further information. We'll just wait and see. Hopefully, we'll get some clarity tomorrow. It's fair to say it doesn't look promising but I'll just wait and see."

And on Dominic, he added: "Dom's improving. We obviously left him out today, but the medical team are pretty confident he should be right for Thursday."
 
No more Swedes for us until next season it seems… hopefully it’ll be the start of 25/26 and not a full 12 months!

Postecoglou says Kulusevski will be out for "a few months" after knee surgery & confirms Bergvall unavailable for EL Final. Story: https://www.standard.co.uk/sport/football/bergvall-kulusevski-injury-tottenham-postecoglou-b1227965.html

Asked if Kulusevski will be ready for the start of next season,” Postecoglou said: “We'll see. I only have basic information in terms of his recovery.”

He added: “Nowhere near 12 months [out]. Me putting a timeframe on it wouldn't be right. The surgery was yesterday, we'll get more information. A lot of it is about how the players react. Fair to say months but how many months I wouldn't speculate.”

Speculation on social media in the wake of Kulusevski’s injury being confirmed saw suggestions that Bergvall could be in line for a surprise return to face Manchester United next week, but Postecoglou has ruled out that possibility.

“No, it is still the same sort of timeframe. He was never a long-term one but he has literally just got out of the boot and taken his first tentative steps on the grass, but he won’t be available,” Postecoglou explained.

How Liverpool have avoided injury in Premier League title race

Players at Premier League title rivals Arsenal and Emirates Marketing Project have struggled with injury this season, but Liverpool have kept their stars fit and it has paid off.
www.espn.com.sg www.espn.com.sg

"Under Slot, Feyenoord were one of the fittest teams in the Netherlands and they scored a lot of goals late on in games because they were in such good shape"

A huge emphasis is placed on the "body wake-up" process, which involves early-morning yoga and hydrotherapy sessions. Players are now required to spend more time at the training centre, arriving early to eat breakfast together and spending more time in the gym following tailored individual programmes. Slot also allows his players to stay at home the night before a home match, rather than sleeping in a hotel as they did under Klopp.

"He introduced the 'Breakfast Club' at Feyenoord where, every day, players and staff and even the Feyenoord media would come to the training ground early and complete lots of different challenges related to health and that sort of thing, but it was all done in a fun way.

"It helped with the players' fitness, and it was something that everyone enjoyed, because players would be challenging each other in the gym or outside doing running. This season, that's not totally gone but they don't do it every day like they did under Slot. Quite often after training, players would like to go straight home. Under Slot, they enjoyed staying behind to carry on working on themselves."

To think.... We could've had Slot if we hadn't cheaped out on paying his Feyenoord release clause. We'll probably spend as much money sacking Ange as we could've spent to hire Slot. Buy cheap buy twice and all that!
