Roberto De Zerbi told Football.London that a long injury can build a player's character, according to Spurs Web, and Dejan Kulusevski is set to return to the Tottenham matchday squad against Coventry after one and a half years.
A five-a-side group chat of eleven members, four of them active, convened on Monday to consider remarks made by Roberto De Zerbi on the subject of Dejan Kulusevski.
The chat noted that the Tottenham head coach had told Football.London that an injury can be important because a player can work on his spirit, and that a long layoff can build a strong character. It further noted that Kulusevski is set to return to the matchday squad against Coventry, a year and a half after he last appeared.
The motion to accept the remark was moved by the member who created the chat in 2019 and has never been removed from the admin role. It was seconded by a thumbs up, which the minutes record as unanimous.
It is understood that the chat then turned to its own business. One member has been unable to play since last Tuesday owing to what he described as a calf and the chat described, after some discussion, as a medium calf.
Fair enough, but I'm not doing a year and a half. I'm doing two weeks and I want it noted that I'm doing them well.
The chat spent forty minutes on whether De Zerbi's wish for a player to be both better and stronger describes one improvement or two. No verdict was reached. A member who joined the conversation late asked who we were talking about.
The chat also noted that De Zerbi had said he follows Xavi Simons step by step through his recovery, and resolved to ask whether the same service could be extended to the calf, at a time to be agreed.
The calf will be reviewed on Thursday.
