We asked for your views on Xavi Simons' season-ending injury, and who you want to see in his place as Tottenham battle to stay in the Premier League.

Here are some of your comments:

Stuart: This is particularly cruel as Simons is a classy player but was not able to show this under Thomas Frank or Igor Tudor. Roberto de Zerbi seemed to be starting to get the best out of him. With Cristian Romero's injury linked to the injustice of the Brian Brobbey decision, and maybe Solanke's injury, it typifies our season.

Stephen: Of course Xavi's injury is a huge blow for us. Can only hope that James Maddison can come back on time to help us fight relegation. He's the only creative midfielder we have left!

Doug: Devastated for him, he was dedicated to keeping us up and a real blow losing him for the remainder of the season. He suits De Zerbi style of play, you could see his progress under him and would have continued to flourish playing for him. In his statement he put first before the World Cup. We seriously need to be looking at our medical team, that is four ACL injuries (Simons, , , Maddison) in the past 15 months with only one of those currently back - on top of all the other injuries we keep getting.
