Injuries

Manq - 1 - 2 weeks
Wilson - 4 weeks
Almiron - season long
Maximin 8 weeks
Schar - 8 - weeks

Games in march

West Bromwich
Villa
Brighton

We're going down imo.. We will lose those games without those players and when one or 2 start coming back we'll have impossible games vs City, Liverpool, arsenal and Leicester

What do you think?

 

I hate Gayle!

 

We just can't lose. A draw will suffice. If we lose to wba then we're screwed.

I'd line up with

Dubz
Krafth Fede Clark Dummett
Murphy Hayden Willock Lewis
Carroll Joelinton

Subs
Darlow Lascelles Longstaff 1 Longstaff 2 Anderson Fraser Gayle

 

Every club has injuries. But ours always appear to be “key” players. I’d like to understand why this is.

I put it down to bad management. And bad tactics. Meaning players are doing jobs they are naturally not good at.

Also because we don’t have squad depth (bad upper management) players are getting flogged week in week out without the ability to rotate players to rest them (as opposed to pulling them because they can’t walk).

Bad management from a bad football club.

 

I mean seriously look at that side

 

We didn't have the squad to go for cup runs, but Bruce wanted to put himself before the club.

 

It's the best we currently have

 

That's the problem it doesn't matter which way you slice it whatever you put out is the worst side in the league.

We are going to have to play Fraser and Murphy imo though

 

that’s a championship side there mate, mid table at best.

 

TBF our next 3 games are against sides so probably we're still in a chance.

 

Under Rafa our injury record improved massively. I even did threads on it. It was all down to understanding players physiologically and designing training and conditioning programs around their spec if needs.

that sham of a manager Brice throws the ball to them in a circle and says ‘go play’... his ex players confirmed this.

If Bruce blames injuries fro bad results he is ultimately blaming himself without being clever enough to realise it.

 

------------------------Dubravka

Manquillo-- lacelles-- Clark-- Lewis

--------Willock - shelvey - Hayden

-------- Murphy-- Carroll - fraser


Anderson Joelinton maybe for Fraser and Carroll, but otherwise thats probably the side we'll see

 

they are prem sides though. With better players and a better manager. They also have a bit of momentum. We don’t.

 

I think the squad has been poorly managed which has contributed to this situation definitely. I must say I think the players are playing for Bruce but the odds are starting to look stacked against us. We would have easily stayed up with maybe only a couple of those injuries but literally every single one of our better players are out.

 

sorry mate but Carroll is ready for the knackers yard. He’s a striker who scores no goals, has no pace... all he does is shout a lot.

 

I agree, but what the other option? Joelinton?

 

I’d reluctantly play Gayle or even push Willock up as he’s nippy and can make the sneaky little runs.

I’d even take Ritchie as an emergency CF as he’s a great striker of the ball.

 

****ing clowns

Bruce has assured you lot you're staying up.

Dya never listen??

 

Yep. And Joe is also the same.

 

Daft to level injuries at Bruce.

Leicester -Justin,Barnes,Maddison,Fofana,Perez,Evans,Praet,Morgan - all injured. About £300m. Liverpool's is worse. It's this season.
