Can’t lie, yesterday I was just thinking how much we could do with Son getting injured. He’s carrying Spurs’ attack, and we kind of need them to go away.
Then I wake up and this happens.

Son Heung-min | arm no longer broken | heart could be

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.
So it was your fault?
Can't believe @Rozay actually broke Son's arm. Cold blooded.
I guess Spurs will be allowed to sign an emergency striker then?
Really classy to say this when he gets injured.
It's true though and by the laws of karma he deserved this.
Home to Leipzig, away at Stamford Bridge and then home to Wolves.
Couldn't have come at a worse time for Spurs.

I guess it was karma for Maguire to not get sent off last night for something that was quite similar then? Or is that different because he wears a Utd top?
Mourinho reckons hes done for the Season.
Out for the season... rough. Spurs are fecked without him IMO. Just dont have enough options, goals, shots to get results.
It's tough but I think we can still get where we need to be. Alli could possibly play up front, Moura also plus we have Parrott who although only 17 is highly rated in the club. It's a big blow but I don't necessarily think it's a season ender for us.
Would be significant achievement from Jose to win anything or even qualify for the CL if both Kane and Son are missing for the rest of the season.
Bergwijn would need to step up big time with Moura and Alli.

He was really starting to play well too, gutted for him. Does anyone know how it happened?
Parrott is class, but surely not the man for today?
He put too much weight on it by carrying Spurs single-handedly.
Looks like he broke it at the very beginning of the game against Villa and kept on playing with it (this stuff often happens when adrenaline blocks the pain).
It is what he is . Did he care about players he has injured or when he stamped on Robert Snodgrass ?
Yeah adrenaline can block out the pain, even still he must be a tough cookie to stick it out with a broken arm and have such a good game.
Would love him at United.
Get well, Son
An excuse for Mourinho. Easy game.
The sea Son?
I struggle to see how he's going to be injured for over 3 months with an arm injury? It's not like his arm was snapped in half either.
Andre Gomes was back faster with a snapped ankle.

No Kane and him now. Spurs aren’t going to score many. Dele Alli is a goalscorer but he alone can’t carry the Spurs attack by himself
No chance, he's not a natural forward. They'll probably have to use Moura up front.
Has it been confirmed just how long Son is out for? Weeks? Months? Full Season? If it's for a few weeks then even if they have a few bad results it won't destroy their season, but if its out for a month or two then they'll be royally screwed.
Kane and Son both injured? What a great time to play Spurs.
Jose is just as likely to play Vertonghen up front to make a point that he's been hamstrung by injuries and lack of support in January.
I have been waiting for someone to Step on his toe.
Nightmare for defenders; always playing on the shoulder.
How did the injury happen? All I saw was him scoring late on.
Damn Rozay you on some voodoo shiit man
Parrott stepping up would be the thing that eases the blow, but it's a big ask for a 17 year old imo. The issue is you have only Alli, Bergwijn and Lucas to play every game as senior members who are attackers. No rotation, no real strikers. Sessegnon will get more games on the wing I guess, but still. Also the factor of Mourinho likes using his squad to make a point sometimes for what he needs, so he might go down that route til the end of the season. It's a big ask.
Well Lamela should get more playing time now...
Bravo
Gomes is still not back playing, when he is he’s been out for around 4 months. If it’s a severe fracture, it could mean 12 immobilized weeks after the surgery. That would result in the season being over.
We all have to pull together at a time like this.
Bergwijn and Lucas as strikers with Alli behind them?
Oh well. Son's crying now. Thanks
How significant an achievement would it be for Ole if we win something/qualify for the CL with Pogba out for most of the season as well as McT and Rashford out for prolongued periods?
Yeah passable/makeshift sure. But rubbish compared to say a Kane level player up top.
