I can't see how Dele could possibly avoid a ban, to be honest. Mendy got one match, and I'd argue the Dele case is actually worse - rather than a politically incorrect joke with a friend who found it funny, it featured an unconsenting member of the public at a time when the ethnic group in question was also suffering more incidents than normal. If he's only banned for the United game I'll take it as a good result, because I fully expect him to at least miss West Ham as well.

Tactical training as to how the team formation/shape is set up according to which players are available?

But wouldn't he be facing a ban regardless, he was charged in Feb so wouldn't expect us to be preparing for any immediate matches with him.

Dele and Dier will miss a few games

Bernardo Similar for similar tweet was banned for 1 match, would be really suprised if Dele gets more

Except we are spurs not Man City. He’ll either get off or get banned for 9 games. I still can’t believe we accepted Dembele’s 5 game ban for poking that Chelsea player, that was excessive.

5 matches for eye gouging is excessive, really?

You do realise how dangerous that is don't you?

He poked him in the face, not the eye.....and it was 6 actually not 5. Plus it was Diego Costa. ???

Dont be so serious.

Stop being biased, you'd be shouting for blue murder if it was the other way round.

Losing him for the Utd game might even be a blessing in disguise as I'm not convinced he should be a guaranteed starter when everyone is fit.

Will be interesting to see how we line up without him.

Agreed. Would love to see Ndombele further up with less defensive responsibilities personally. He's a tricky player with good feet and an eye for a pass. Could potentially be special there IMO.
