Tottenham lose Lo Celso for two months to injury

Published on: 10 September 2019

After Watford parted ways with Javi Garcia, the FC crew assess the chances that Tottenham's Mauricio Pochettino could leave his post this season.

The FC crew discuss Harry Kane's recent attempts to initiate contact in the penalty area, including his collision with Sokratis in the North London derby.

Alexis Nunes is joined by Julien Laurens and Mark Ogden to address the reasons why Tottenham Hotspur have had a horrendous start to the Premier League.

Arsenal come from two goals down to earn a draw with North London rivals Tottenham.

Alejandro Moreno and Ross Dyer rank Manchester City, Chelsea, Tottenham and Liverpool in terms of who got the hardest group draw in the UEFA Champions League.

Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Giovani Lo Celso has suffered a hip injury that will sideline him for nearly two months, the Premier League club said on Tuesday.

Lo Celso, signed on loan by Spurs on deadline day from Spanish side Real Betis, was injured while on international duty during last week's 0-0 draw with Chile where he was substituted early in the second half.

The 23-year-old is Spurs' third close season recruit to be sidelined with injury after midfielder Tanguy Ndombele missed the last two games with a thigh problem while Ryan Sessegnon is yet to make his club debut due to a hamstring issue.
