Ryan Mason

It's good, and correct, that Cahill has not been made the enemy of this at all.

Head collisions are rare, and serious damage even rarer. No need to change any rules on field eg head guards, the ref did everything right apart from possibly not demanding Cahill be substituted and inspected. That's one rule that certainly needs looking at, as has been discussed.

Simple fix for me that - let it be at the discretion of the referee to allow the change without using up one of the three subs allocated.

The Club can confirm that Ryan Mason continues to make excellent progress after sustaining a skull fracture in Sunday’s game against Chelsea. He will continue to be closely monitored by staff at St Mary’s Hospital over the next few days, whilst also remaining in contact with our medical team to assess his progress. There will be no further updates from the club until there are any changes in Ryan’s condition. We also ask that people respect Ryan & his family’s privacy whilst he remains in hospital.
 
Think we are going to try and get a 'he's one of our own' chant going in the 38th min on Sat. 38 being his squad number at Spurs.

Fingers crossed he makes a full recovery.
 

Maybe. Just fans showing a bit of support for an ex player. A chant that will last about 30 seconds. Nothing to do with THFC officially. Might not even happen.
 
Classy move

Mauricio Pochettino went to St Mary’s Hospital in London on Thursday afternoon to visit the stricken Ryan Mason and said the Tottenham Hotspur squad had sent their former team-mate a video message, as football continued to wish the Hull City midfielder a full and speedy recovery from a fractured skull.

Mason, who came up through the youth ranks at Tottenham before leaving for Hull last summer in a £10m deal, was taken from Stamford Bridge to St Mary’s in west London, where he underwent surgery on Sunday night.

There has been enormous concern for his well-being and Pochettino, who considers Mason to be a “special player”, went to visit him at the first available opportunity after he and his players had got back from Barcelona late on Wednesday night. Pochettino was accompanied to the hospital by his assistant, Jesús Pérez, and the Tottenham academy manager, John McDermott.

“We were in Barcelona on Sunday, we watched the game and we saw the situation live,” Pochettino said. “We’ve since kept in touch with Ryan’s family and his girlfriend, Rachel. It was a difficult moment and we were very worried about the action [with Cahill] and his health. The action was hard and difficult. “For sure, the players are also in touch with Ryan’s family – his dad and his girlfriend. The squad sent a video to him from Barcelona. He is a special player for us and for me, personally. He grew up here at Tottenham. He is a person that we love.”

Happily, Mason is recovering well and Pochettino said he had been told that the 25-year-old was now able to do a little bit of walking. “I know that he is making some progress,” he said. “He is much better. He walks a little bit. It’s important to know how he is and to share some time with him. It will be fantastic for him and for us; to try to encourage him.
