The news we fans were dreading broke this morning that Toby Alderweireld has been ruled out for longer than expected.
Pochettino had suggested the Belgian centre back would miss the game vs Leicester City but his return has been put back a further week – ruling him out of huge games against Bayer Leverkusen and potentially Arsenal too. This is according to Belgian journalist Kristof Terreur, a normally reliable source, on Twitter.
A huge blow for the team. Dier is expected to continue at centre back in Toby’s absence.
