I wonder if this is purely to get his fitness levels up or is he being marginalised by the new coaching team aswell? I'd have thought he'd have been given a clean slate to start fresh and impress Poch.

there were photos of Ceballos and Sandro in the gym today as well, so perhaps just a gym session....

Judging by the Hashtags he put on the picture he's being marginalised. Seems to be having a pop

Benny's hashtags are "#gym#professionel#france#alone" so i don't think he is in the same gym!

He did 'hashtag" France, so would presume his location was France and not our training ground.

Yeah....so lets just ignore my explanation......

 

[werty]

He's not wearing any of the club gear either so I doubt he's training with us atm. Have any of the World Cup players returned yet?

I don't think so.

 

[Stupid like a fox]

I don't think the world cup players are due back until tomorrow so this just seems like Benny saying he is starting training early

 

[Flashspur]

it may be that he isn't due back yet?

 

[Arthur Hucksake]

If he can get his fitness and agility back, he's still a better option than Rose.

 

[Geyzer Soze]

what concerns me are the #Alone and #Professional hashtags.

That says to me he's ostracised, but he's professinal so still training. Having a dig and bigging himself.

He is valueless if we want rid of him as he'd probably fail in medicals like he did last year. Now that we have Davies, we can sell Rose for 5-6 million pounds and keep him as back-up.

I doubt he is in the plans for the squad. If he were, I suspect he would have gone on the US/Canada tour, as he was available.

 

[zzz]

He was taken out of the team for a reason last year. Poch isn't going to want a destabilising factor in his dressing room either.

Had he lost it then?

Could be that he is attention seeking in addition...an alert for potential clubs?

Should we read anything into the fact that his 'handle' is Assouekott(off)???

I don't think there's any need to read too much into that. He's just training alone, i.e. not with the team yet. It could mean more, but I doubt it. I can't see Pochettino telling him to stay away before he's even met him.
