Pritchard, Alli, Son


As suspected Alex Pritchard is going to be put for even longer after undergoing ankle surgery. He has been out since injuring himself in the European Under-21 Championships in the summer and has been struggling since. He has had a pain in his foot that won't go away and we have now had to resort to surgery which will keep him out for 3 months. His season won't begin until next year.

A player has to have the right mindset to be the best they can be and not every player has that. Players get to a level and then simply stay in their comfort zone doing what they do and not going to the next level. We see the talented players who go on to become world stars, they stand apart from the average international player.

It is very frustrating when a player with talent fails to utilise it to it's fullest, but all the signs point to Dele Alli having the motivation. His old MK Dons boss Karl Robinson believes he will do all he can to be the best player he can be, report the Daily Mail. That's a phrase regular readers will be familiar with.

As expected we saw Alli come on as a late substitute for England in the European Championship qualifier against Estonia last night which secures him for England and fends off Nigeria who have been courting him.

Son Heung-min was assessed today ahead of returning to training next week with the hope of featuring against Liverpool when the Premier League season continues after the international break.
