No, you're right.
In the wrong way.
But they're the players, so with Dele Alli, if he has got that injury, then you're relying on those two players coming in and they're not even given options.
And that might force them into now making a decision to go out and get more players in.
Because that takes a lot out of you to come back and win a game like that.
So to be doing that week in and week out, they're going to be knackered.
It absolutely does.
You can't take anything away.
To come back and win like that is huge.
But to do it, to keep asking your players to constantly do it is a lot.
Yeah.
And then when you look at the situation now, actually Spurs do need him.
They need to get him some confidence, get that back.
Because what we were talking about before, when we didn't know the starting line-up, oh, Dele Alli can play as that false nine and trying to shape the team around him.
Well, now with a potential injury to him, you need Llorente.
Well, I suppose Poch alluded to it there.
After losing how they did to United last week, when they did, they played so well.
It was about getting a reaction.
And like we saw today, yes, overall, it wasn't the vintage, nice style of football play, but they found a way to win.
They came back into the game and just found a way.
