José Mourinho, coach of Tottenham Hotspur, criticized Gareth Bale for assuring via Instagram on Tuesday that he was physically ready to play, even though he couldn’t be against Everton later due to a muscle problem.
The Welsh player posted a photo last Tuesday writing that it had been a good workout, but earlier that Monday he had requested a scan for an inconvenience and was still feeling uncomfortable after that workout.
The scan showed no injuries, but Bale was not part of the team that lost to Everton in the FA Cup round of 16.
“Probably that publication is not even his responsibility. I don’t know. But what he said was that the training had been good and he was ready and it wasn’t true. If they ask me about it, I have to give it a go. truth. I’ll repeat it for the last time, “he said.
“He was not doing well, he asked for a scan, he had him, there was nothing to see, no injuries, but he was still not okay. We can’t decide on that because how a footballer feels is higher so we don’t take him to the game. It’s that simple. When it is ready for tomorrow, it will be on the list, ” Mourinho said at a press conference.
