Here's every single word the Tottenham Hotspur head coach said ahead of the Premier League match at Wolves on Saturday afternoon
Postecoglou: “Absolutely. I am not going to draw a direct correlation to Micky’s injury but I was half-tempted to throw some balls out there for them to kick around. It’s the reason we have warm-ups but if you’re going into a game, the fact there was only 47 minutes of game time the other night in whatever it was, 110, that is not ideal for the type of athletes we have out there”
That’s the disgrace right there. All this waiting around is likely harming the players.

Yeah, he did say, “I was half-tempted to throw some balls out there for them to kick around”. It’s right there in the quote I posted.
They’ll need to come up with some strategies for keeping warm while waiting an indeterminate amount of time while waiting for VAR.
So not bullshit at all then.
In American Football they use stationary bikes to keep warm.
