The Tottenham Hotspur team has once again suffered from injuries in the run-up to the holiday season.
After Tottenham’s difficulties last season due to a number of injuries, Ange Postecoglou will be experiencing a little of déjà vu.
Given that Mikey Moore has already missed weeks of activity, Tottenham supporters are concerned about his absence.
Additionally, Guglielmo Vicario recently had ankle surgery, which was a sucker punch between the sticks.
However, there is at last some good news from Hotspur Way, as players are preparing to play again.
Micky van de Ven of Tottenham Hotspur receives medical treatment for an injury and is substituted off the pitch injured during the Carabao Cup Four…
Micky van de Ven issues injury update from Tottenham
Since joining Tottenham last summer, Micky van de Ven has certainly suffered his fair share of injury issues. And the Dutchman sustained yet another hamstring problem during the Carabao Cup game against Manchester City. Now over a month on from that game, Van de Ven is looking set to make his return to action ahead of the festive fixtures.
The centre-back posted several images of himself working out on Instagram on Monday, writing, “On the way.”
Van de Ven was unable to make the team for the draw against Fulham this weekend, despite having returned to Tottenham training last week.
Since joining Spurs, Postecoglou has praised Van de Ven, but his injury problems have undoubtedly been a major drawback to the Dutchman’s lightning-fast speed.

Van de Ven’s speed has amazed Cody Gakpo of Liverpool, but it has undoubtedly come at a price.
Spurs have already seen the Dutchman’s pace issues, as the 23-year-old has missed a lot of action in his little more than a year with the team.
An overview of Van de Ven’s injury problems since joining Tottenham in the summer is provided here.
| Injury | Days missed | Games missed |
|---|---|---|
| Hamstring | 34* | 7 |
| Knee | 11 | 4 |
| Hamstring | 18 | 2 |

Cristian Romero might make a comeback from injury against Bournemouth later this week, which is another encouraging development for the Lilywhites.
The Lilywhites will be hoping to see some consistency return along with some of their injured players after losing more points over the weekend.
