Andre Villas-Boas explains why he took Sandro off against Wigan
Tottenham head coach Andre Villas-Boas revealed that he took Sandro off as a precaution.
The Brazilian was replaced by Gylfi Sigurdsson midway through the first half against Wigan as Spurs went on to lose 1-0 to the Latics.
“He felt the muscle nearly rupture so he didn’t want to take any more risks,” Villas-Boas said. “It was a wise decision.
“If it had ruptured he would have been out for a month so I think he felt it getting tight and asked for the change and I think in the end.
“He had felt it before Southampton.”
