Spurs vs Bournemouth. Harry Kane

"We got down here early evening Saturday and had a chance to chill out, have our food and have a good sleep,” Kane said.

“It was good preparation. You also get back quicker, get home, get good food into you. The more the club can do to help the players recover, the better it is.”

Indeed, Mauricio Pochettino and his squad took a 20-minute flight to the south coast, trimming more than five hours off the estimated travelling time for a round trip by road.

This is so so important !!

Do this every away game.

From where would they fly out from ?

So they still have to travel to Stansted and back and from wherever the plane can touch down at the other end.

That's normally the way it works for everyone, and from any airport.

So one wonders how much an advantage it is. Still better than 5 hours sitting in a bus I guess.
