[Albion] Pre-Spurs press conference

[Van Cleef]

From The Argus:

Head coach Roberto De Zerbi is recovering from what has been described as “very invasive dental surgery”.

This is why De Zerbi WON'T be facing the media before Albion play Tottenham

Andrea Maldera is in charge of Brighton for their game at Tottenham

I love a bit of incisor information.

 

[Rogero]

This dentist story is hard to swallow.

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

Spurs will break in the canals

 

[Brovion]

Hmmm .....

dwayne's right, he's off for his Liverpool interview!

 

[dwayne]

dwayne's right, he's off for his Liverpool interview!

He's definitely had some kind of flounce most on here are sure of that and Tony's face after the palace game wasn't a picture of joy. 2+2= ....

 

[Commander]

Yes. It would be one of the WEIRDEST made up excuses if not, on a par with "the dog ate my homework".

Those are the best ones though. The most believable.

Maybe he needed this dental surgery and when he got his yellow card against Palace and knew he couldn't be on the touchline tomorrow he thought now is the time to do it.

Having had various dental procedures I know full well it can feel extremely invasive at times - but also could partly explain his recent tired appearance and tired answers to things. Could have been in pain, and having a lack of sleep too.

Question: does this mean his touchline ban carries over to the next game, as he will be absent due to medical treatment? I know that players on red cards don't need to attend a ground for a match they can't play in, but obvs managers/head coaches/gaffers might be slightly different in this instance...

 

[Nathan]

BRIDGING the GAP to the top 6.

 

[CHAPPERS]

Noting wrong with a scaled back press conference once in a while. I'm sure this other fella will put up a polished performance.

No, of course not!

"Yes hello? Mr. Webb? It's me Roberto. Just letting you know that I won't be attending the Spurs game today as I'm actually a little poorly. Can you make sure you reschedule my ban for next week instead? I don't want to miss out just because I'm ill."

 

[Whitechapel]

2+2= ....

7437 if NSC is doing the maths.

 

[ozzygull]

Is the press confernece at tooth hurty?

 

[Greg Bobkin]

Is there any tooth in the rumour that the RDZ statue has been downgraded to a plaque? Or will the apparent stand-off be brushed under the carpet?

If you're in Europe then yes. Yes it is!

By the way, he's confirmed he's going to be at the match. Just not on the bench/doing interviews.

 

[LamieRobertson]

more concerned that tomorrow our attack has plenty of bite and no cavities in our defence

 

[Commander]

So is any journo at the Presser going to be brave enough to ask outright about Pedro? (credit- Commander, NSC)

 

[Ooh it’s a corner]
