Big blow for Spurs

|

Tottenham appear to have suffered a major blow ahead of the game against us on Saturday.

The Evening Standard is claiming that Dele Ali has been ruled out of the game at the London Stadium which gives the Irons a perfect opportunity to get back on course after the Brighton and Hove Albion defeat.

The London daily evening ‘paper says the Spurs attacking midfielder will play no part in the match because of a thigh injury that has kept him out of the club’s last three matches.

The Standard report Alli is definitely out but it remains to be seen if he will joined on the sidelines by the likes of Christian Eriksen, Mousa Dembele, Serge Aurier and Danny Rose, who have also missed matches due to injury in the last few weeks.

Victor Wanyama’s involvement is also uncertain after he came off hobbling during international duty this week.
