Think it might have something to do with having just had his first child just before the internationals.

Got a text from someone today saying he’d heard Toby and Trippier had a bust up after the match on Saturday resulting in Toby chinning him. I’m sure it’s bullshit but thought I’d share. The guy he heard it from is ‘well connected’ to one of the Spurs players apparently - the guy that text me said he got the text yesterday morning before it came out that those 2 weren’t traveling. I asked why he didn’t send the text yesterday and he said ‘I have a life, ****’. Even if true, not sure why that would prevent Trippier from going. Prob rubbish anyway. Here’s hoping....

Maybe he's got concussion from the punch! :barefoot:

My only hope was that people were saying the same about him staying this summer.

He’s just playing the game and towing the line and will move in the summer (or January) to get his last big contract. Seems pretty obvious to me unfortunately

OT (slightly): Last season at the lane 17 wins and 2 draws....Poch and the boys have really had it tough with away and slightly away (wembley) schedule these past two seasons

Not sure he's quite as attractive as he used to be. That big old "Mercenary" tattoo on his forehead can't help.

We don't win by losing Toby.
correct.
I think that this winter window is about clearing decks as much as possible and bringing in 1-2 players (even if one doesn't join until the summer).
Need to be well positioned this summer with money for contract extensions or 1-2 key buys
