Tottenham fans this season have gone into every international break fearing the worst. They’ve already seen Giovani Lo Celso crocked whilst playing for his country (Sky Sports) and the fear of their players suffering setbacks whilst playing international football is real.

However, yesterday the Lilywhites were given the amazing news that both Lo Celso and Juan Foyth had been left on the bench for La Albiceleste’s clash with Uruguay, and the final whistle in that clash came with neither of the Tottenham players getting on, making even better news for Spurs fans.
The pair both started against Brazil on the previous Friday and helped their side to a 1-0 win, but with Tottenham duo avoiding injury the fans will be delighted to welcome them back to north London as they now start looking ahead to the weekend as they face a trip to West Ham.
Should Foyth and Lo Celso start against West Ham?
Yes
No

Let’s hope they don’t come on

The Lilywhites are clearly delighted that their Argentine pair missed out yesterday and will be desperate to get their full squad back injury-free.
