‘Make sure the boys remember’ – Jamie O’Hara sends warning to Matty Cash
Jamie O’Hara has revealed that he is absolutely fuming at Aston Villa defender Matty Cash for his tackle on Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Rodrigo Bentancur.
Spurs and Villa faced off in the Premier League last weekend in what was a closely contested game. Unfortunately for Ange Postecoglou and his players, Unai Emery’s side managed to win 2-1, handing Tottenham their third successive defeat in the league.
Bentancur was making his first start in around nine months against Villa. Having just recovered from an ACL injury that he suffered back in February, the 26-year-old was on the receiving end of a horrendous challenge by Matty Cash.
Journalist Sami Mokbel revealed on X (formerly known as Twitter) that Bentancur is expected to miss out on 2.5 months of action following his latest injury. A report from Football. London also added that the Spurs midfielder had torn the ligament in his ankle.
Spurs have had a torrid time with injuries and suspensions this season. After an unbeaten start in the league, Tottenham have tumbled down to fifth following these losses.
Jamie O’ Hara is not happy with Matty Cash
Former Spurs player Jamie O’Hara revealed on X that he was understandably not happy about the tackle on Bentancur and urged the Spurs players to remember the challenge.
“2.5 months for Bentancur injury absolutely gutted he looked decent, Fuming about Cash next time we play Villa let’s make sure the boys remember.”

In the heat of the game, tackles like the one from Matty Cash happen. The Polish international surely would not have intended to hurt Bentancur. While O’Hara’s anger is justified, it does not make sense to keep this in our minds and give it back the next time we face Villa.
It’s an absolute shame that Bentancur is going to be out for the next couple of months, if not more. Understandably, he would be devastated. Spurs now have a momentous task of stopping the slide and resurrecting the season, and they will have to do it without Bentancur. Let’s just hope our injury curse ends with this.
