Supporters of Tottenham Hotspur have been reacting to a report which has emerged detailing the fitness of three first-team players.
According to Football Insider, Steven Bergwijn, Heung-min Son and Harry Kane will all be able to return to the starting XI when the season resumes.
Jose Mourinho’s outfit are set to face Manchester United in their first game back on Friday 19th June (per BBC).
As revealed by the report, however, all three players are ‘fully fit and primed’ to start the match against the Red Devils after previously being sidelined through ‘long-term injuries before the lockdown’.
So, after the squad update was relayed to supporters on social media (via @HotspurRelated), the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium faithful aired their thoughts.

‘Football Insider’ really do have the inside track on everything, who could have predicted that those three might start

The return of Kane will certainly be a big boost for the North London club as he is still their top scorer in the Premier League this season with 11 goals, despite his spell on the sidelines (per WhoScored).
Hell no Bergwijn is good but he can’t bench Lucas !!! Lucas is starting ahead of Bergwijn

Just behind Kane as the club’s top scorer is Son, who has bagged nine goals and seven assists in the league this season, which shows that he is an important player to have back fit, too.
Finally, while he has not been as prolific as his two teammates, Bergwijn’s 6.96/10 average rating across his five league outings for Spurs shows that he is a useful asset.
Should all three players start the game against Manchester United?No, not all of them
Yes, we need them back in
