Tottenham Hotspur youngster Juan Foyth had a very enjoyable November international break whilst out with the Argentine national side and on Thursday he gave a number of fans a boost as he had returned from duty early.
The expectation, when you put two and together, was that our Argentinian contingent of Foyth, Erik Lamela and Paulo Gazzaniga would likely be ruled out of Saturday’s late Premier League kickoff against Chelsea as they would be given time to recover with late arrivals being likely.
Foyth’s return, however, brought that question to the fore and all most really wanted to know was whether or not he’d brought his teammates with him on the same flight.
Where’s @ErikLamela? Need him back in the squad!

Hope he's brought Lamela with him.

Unless manager Mauricio Pochettino’s hand is forced by an injury I’m not aware of, I certainly wouldn’t expect to see either of the three start the game, but if they did return yesterday then a place on the bench could be likely.
