    Too soon 😭

    This one I do know about, having suffered a bad ACL/MCL strain in my 20s. In hindsight, it was almost certainly a partial tear. Grade 1 = strain = stretched and will heal itself with physio in due course. Grade 2 = partial tear = knee unstable, takes a lot of healing, possibly surgery. Grade 3...

    That's for a complete tear though, right? Reading around a bit shows that, even for partial tears, reconstruction traditionally involves replacing the whole ligament -- as you've described. I just wonder if cutting edge surgery can now fix partial tears without having to replace the whole...

    I mean, any modern Premier League footballer is essentially super human. Hopefully indicates a low-severity tear and a relatively minimal bit of keyhole surgery. Could he even be back for the end-of-season stretch?

    *** OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Emirates Marketing Project ***

    When we least expect it is when Spurs beat Emirates Marketing Project. There's a glimmer of hope this time, so we're going to get battered.

    *** OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Ipswich Town FC ***

    No, teams with better strikers should outscore their xG -- like we did for years with prime Sonny and Kane up front. Better teams will have higher xG as they're making more chances (and/or higher-quality chances). A mediocre team with a top striker might score 3 from an xG of 1. A good team...

    Yang Min-Hyeok

    I'd say that any player standing out in the Championship should be good enough for lower Prem. If said player is a youngster on his way up, there's an excellent chance that he'll reach top 6 squad level -- which is what we're aiming for, taking this season as a blip. Still plenty that don't...

    ***OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Liverpool***

    Oof. That was painful. For me the biggest disappointment was our central midfield in the first half. Sarr, Bissouma and Bentancur couldn't string a pass together, tackle, or intercept. Kulu clearly knackered, Sonny a shadow of his former self, even Gray looked shellshocked out there...

    ***OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Liverpool***

    I was hoping no-one would pick me up on that one. Yep, true. But we've got it worse than many other teams. More (and realer) hope for the wins against the top teams, more disappointment at the inevitable losses against the bottom ones.

    ***OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Liverpool***

    Indeed. The thing about supporting Spurs over the last 15 years is that we've got a genuine chance of beating anyone. We've also got a genuine chance of losing to anyone, of course. That's who we are, mate.

    ***OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Liverpool***

    I honestly don't think we have a chance. I can see it being a comfortable 3-1 for the Dippers that turns into a 5-1 as we push and get hit by the counter. Tel should be involved, and Danso if he's gelled in training. Not like we have a settled back line anyway. But then, I didn't think we had a...

    Radu Drăgușin

    I think it's easy to forget that Dragusin is still a youngster -- 22 being very young for a top CB. His ability, confidence and attitude make him seem much more established than he is, which is a huge positive. While he's never going to be Beckenbauer, he has plenty of time to develop his game...

    This. ABSOLUTELY this. It's one thing to have a pointy shouty guy, like Sissoko or Hojbjerg. It's another to have one with the skills to be a true leader. Who can grab a game that's drifting away and exert his will upon it. Early days yet, but the kid is fearless. I had a few drinks with a...
