Following Tottenham Hotspur's recent victory over Manchester United, manager Ange Postecoglou dismissed sympathy for Ruben Amorim's injury problems, recalling his own team's prolonged struggles with fitness. He expressed that while United is facing a one-game crisis, Tottenham endured severe injury challenges over two months. This period culminated in a much-needed victory, aided by returning players like James Maddison and Guglielmo Vicario. With ten first-team players injured, United relied on an inexperienced bench, prompting Postecoglou's sarcastic remarks highlighting the significance and duration of injury crises in football.
"I could see Ruben there, players out of position, kids on the bench. Well, welcome to my world. But that's for one game. Now do that for two months."
"If I check my office, I don't have any sympathy cards from other managers, so that hasn't happened."
