Really devastated for Solly. He's been a key player in the last few games and has improved so much.
I think some questions need to be asked of our medical team. He had obviously injured his knee. Why was he allowed to play on? Seems likely that an initial cruciate injury was turned into a full...
My closest friend who I've known for more than 30 years isn't into football -apart from a slight family allegiance to Bradford City. He recently bought a flat very close to Selhurst Park and asked if I'd like to go to some games. I'm going to have to educate him!
As stated here already, he's got pedigree, but has to step up and do it in every game now. That is a different challenge from promising cameos. On the plus side there can be little doubt about his talent. The negative may be a tendency to niggling injuries. He should be fit, but I hope we start...
My 14 year old daughter brought her first Liverpool boyfriend home a couple of years ago. He turned out to be an unexpected Albion fan! The following day she dumped him because she couldn't face us talking about football!
I was taught as a student 30 years ago that red meat causes bowel and colon cancer. In the Far East the rice diet tends to lead to greater rates of stomach cancer and cancers further up the intestine. In the West it's the bacon and blackened (as in barbecued) meat that is the biggest suspect...
I agree about Dunk. He's always struck me as a player who's confidence is fairly fragile. I guess he needs to play regularly to build up his confidence. However with Hunemeier and Greer he may be the one to drop to the bench at the moment.
DS games don't play with the pace, intensity or aggression of the championship. As said before match fitness is not the same as gym fitness. It takes a couple of full games to get up to speed. Just look at March
I'm sure we will be covered by Rosenior in the short term. However if Bong is out long term it would leave us with little cover. Greer and Bruno aren't young and while the first eleven may be ok we will need more cover at some point. Hopefully we should be able to get to January and then see...
If we are top at Christmas then it's a great time to invest. In particular a striker who could be valuable in the premiership would be a great investment. I think we also need stronger cover /replacements for Bruno and Greer.
This is a real shame. He's been one of the key differences this season. I think a real loss will be the understanding that he seemed to be developing with Kaz. I think Bong played a big role in the improvement in Kaz' form.
