I keep getting this too late at night when I'm at a point where the thoughts in my head generated during the day have dissipated and shrunk to: was there any football today?
A few weeks ago I read a Tottenham story that made me laugh but I only remembered it today when I saw the name of the player again. And now it seems like very old news. Spurs sold Kyle Walker to Manchester City and then who do they have in their team for a per-season friendly, in the same position: Kyle Walker-Peters.I thought it was a joke. Really, They lose one Kyle Walker at right back and, boom, there's another one to take his place.
That Kieran Trippier is injured just adds to the surrealness of the situation. Walker goes, Trippier finally gets his chance to be the regular, he is injured in Spurs' last big pre-season friendly, Walker-Peters put in a man-of-the-match performance in his place in the opening match of the season and Trippier is back to fighting for his place with a Kyle Walker (Peters).
