Injury news is never a convenient time, especially before the game against your biggest rivals. Yet Tottenham fans are experiencing just that.
TEAM NEWS:
@ericdier (hip): Being assessed after complaining of irritation in right hip.
@TanguyNdombele (thigh): Commenced on-field rehab and remains unavailable.
@KWPeters (hamstring strain): Undergoing on-field rehab, unavailable. #THFC #COYS pic.twitter.com/tPyo4nfSZ9

Spurs announced on their official Twitter page that Kyle Walker-Peters and Tanguy Ndombele are unavailable for this weekend’s game against north London rivals Arsenal, and that Eric Dier could also be out with a hip problem.
With no natural right-back available for selection and the club’s record-transfer also not fit enough to be part of the squad, plenty of Tottenham fans were left fuming and took to social media to vent at the club.
Here is what some Spurs supporters had to say on Twitter…
This is pretty horrific lads

This is seriously unacceptable. New training methods have got to be put in here. Can’t have this many niggly injuries after 3 games and most definitely not for the entire season
