Lamela Opens Up On The Struggles Leading To Retirement

August 18, 2025 10:35 am

For years, Erik Lamela’s name was synonymous with flair on the pitch — a creative spark for Tottenham, Sevilla, and Roma, capable of moments that could silence stadiums and lift teammates. Yet behind the applause, there was a quieter, more relentless story: pain.

“Being in pain, playing and training through discomfort became normal,” Lamela revealed, explaining the decision that has ended his professional career. For the past five years, he has battled injuries that never truly healed, navigating the thin line between perseverance and self-preservation. “I’ve been taking pills every game to be in better condition, starting with the lowest …

Alli’s Tottenham Future In Doubt After Southampton Axe

September 20, 2020 3:52 pm

Dele Alli’s Tottenham future is in doubt after he was dropped for their Premier League match at Southampton on Sunday as Jose Mourinho claimed he has “too many players”.

Alli was substituted at half-time of Tottenham’s defeat against Everton last weekend and was missing from the squad for their Europa League qualifier against Lokomotiv Plovdiv on Thursday.

The England international was expected to return against Southampton, but Tottenham manager Mourinho did not include him in the matchday squad.

Alli has endured a difficult period over the last two years, with his form dipping badly.

Mourinho was seen accusing him of …

Pochettino Wants To Return To Premier League

May 23, 2020 4:51 pm

Mauricio Pochettino says returning to the Premier League is his “priority”, stating he is eager to manage again six months after being sacked by Tottenham.

The 48-year-old transformed Spurs’ fortunes during his five-and-a-half-year reign but failed to win a trophy and was sacked less than a year after leading them to the Champions League final.

The Argentine has now ended his six-month “gardening leave”, meaning he is free to join another club.

He has been heavily linked with Newcastle if their proposed Saudi Arabia-backed takeover goes through, while speculation over the Manchester United job has never gone away.

Tottenham’s Son Vows To Learn From Red Card ‘Pain’

January 6, 2020 5:05 pm

Tottenham forward Son Heung-min says he has learned his lesson after the “pain” of being sent off three times since May.

The South Korean was back in action for Spurs in Sunday’s 1-1 FA Cup draw at Middlesbrough after serving a three-match ban for his dismissal against Chelsea last month.

Son’s sending off for kicking out at Blues defender Antonio Rudiger was the latest of his unwanted hat-trick of straight reds, although one — for the tackle at Everton that broke Andre Gomes’ ankle — was rescinded on appeal.

“I am trying to learn something about this situation. Three red …

Norwich Hold Tottenham In Four-Goal Thriller

December 28, 2019 5:18 pm

Harry Kane’s penalty eight minutes from time salvaged a point for Tottenham in a 2-2 thriller at Norwich on Saturday that exposed both sides’ inability to defend.

The bottom-of-the-table Canaries twice led through Mario Vrancic and a Serge Aurier own goal as they aimed to breath new life into their hopes of Premier League survival.

Christian Eriksen’s brilliant free-kick and Kane’s spot-kick ensured Spurs did not slump to a third defeat in seven games, but they failed to take the chance to leapfrog Chelsea into the top four.

Tottenham Fail With Appeal Against Son Red Card

December 24, 2019 4:12 pm

Tottenham Hotspur have failed with their appeal against Son Heung-min’s red card, the Football Association announced Tuesday.

The South Korean winger saw red in the second half of Spurs’ 2-0 loss at home to Chelsea in a spiteful London derby on Sunday after VAR confirmed he had kicked out at Blues defender Antonio Rudiger after being fouled.

Tottenham launched an appeal but the FA upheld his red card, meaning Son will now serve a three-game ban ruling him out of the matches at home to Brighton on Boxing Day, and at Norwich and Southampton on Saturday and New Year’s Day …

Mourinho Confirm Tottenham Appeal Against Wrong Red For Son

December 23, 2019 5:17 pm

Tottenham Hotspur manager Jose Mourinho said Son Heung-min had suffered enough as he confirmed the club would appeal against the red card the South Korean received against Chelsea.

Son was dismissed in the second half of Spurs’ 2-0 loss at home to their London rivals on Sunday after the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) deemed he had kicked out at Chelsea’s Antonio Rudiger — an incident that led to the alleged racist abuse of the Germany international.

Anthony Talor, the on-field referee, did not punish Son, but a VAR check saw the player ruled guilty of violent conduct, prompting a …

Alli Double Sends Mourinho’s Tottenham Up To Fifth

November 30, 2019 2:18 pm

Jose Mourinho’s perfect start as Tottenham manager stretched to three games as Spurs saw off Bournemouth 3-2 thanks to Dele Alli’s double on Saturday.

Recovering Alli’s form of old was one of Mourinho’s stated priorities when taking charge last week and it is already paying dividends as the England international has now scored three times in three games under Mourinho.

Moussa Sissoko scored his first goal for over two years in emphatic fashion on the volley from Son Heung-min’s cross to make it 3-0 before two goals from substitute Harry Wilson gave Bournemouth late hope of a dramatic comeback.…

October 25, 2019 4:43 pm

Manchester City has the chance to exert some short-term pressure on runaway Premier League leaders, Liverpool, this weekend as Manchester United look to end their away-day blues.Jurgen Klopp’s side saw their long winning streak ended by a hungry United in a draw at Old Trafford last week but still have a comfortable six-point lead over second-placed City.

Guardiola’s defending champions can cut that gap to just three points, at least temporarily, if they beat Aston Villa at home on Saturday, while Liverpool has a trickier-looking tie against Spurs the following day.
