The football schedule these days is like the interior of a sausage casing- a bunch of stuff just keeps getting stuffed in there. The Premier League weekend ended only hours ago, but we’re already on to another round of fixtures, headlined by Tottenham Hotspur hosting Manchester City, in midweek.
They have to jam that in there before the next round of the FA Cup action commences on the weekend. Although that is not anything that Spurs have to be concerned with!
