The situation at Tottenham Hotspur has reached a boiling point as they prepare for a daunting trip to Liverpool on Sunday.
Interim manager Igor Tudor used his press conference today to deliver a blunt message to his struggling players, urging them to choose between being the “victim” or fighting for the club’s top-flight status.
Spurs have lost all four matches under the Croatian, including a humiliating 5-2 Champions League defeat to Atletico Madrid on Tuesday where the team collapsed defensively in the opening 20 minutes.
Tudor confirmed a catastrophic triple injury blow that could leave Spurs without up to thirteen first-team players.
Captain Cristian Romero and midfielder Joao Palhinha have been ruled out of the Liverpool match due to concussion rules following a heavy clash of heads in Spain.
Meanwhile, Yves Bissouma is sidelined with a muscular problem and Micky van de Ven remains unavailable through suspension.
