[Albion] Pervis Estupiñán - SIGNED - 5 YEAR CONTRACT

[Weststander]

Yeah maybe, but I struggle to put the Carabao Cup above the FA Cup, Europa League or Premier League in the hierarchy. If there was one competition we could de-prioritise, it's that one in my opinion. It probably also helps that I don't buy into this whole Chelsea rivalry nonsense either so there's no edge on the game on the same way as there was for others

Agreed. The LC should've been the bottom of our priorities. Villa Park and Marseille the focus.

It was always going to happen, experts have been saying it for ages. The football calendar has been ridiculous and will continue to be unless changes are made. The players just play too much football at an intense level.

I totally understand and get what you are saying but when RDZ makes 9 changes that theory doesn't really work. In fact i'm sure that's why we are playing like strangers imho. So i'm happy the Carabao cup is over with for this season.

Can't keep a good man down. We'll miss him for sure, but if he can get himself fit for matches after the international break, then i'm totally confident Tariq can cover manfully in his position

 

[SeagullsoverLondon]

Back in training

 

[trueblue]

Great news.

 

[Mancgull]

May play on Sunday then. Doubt we’d risk Thursday.

 

[dolphins]

Excellent news - with our current injury roster, it's great to hear he's back in training. Moder is too, isn't he?

Too soon for Perv to play on Thursday? If so, hopefully Sunday...

Can someone explain what this is brace on his leg would be for ?

Per google image search that’s for quite bad knee injuries…?

 

[AZ Gull]

Can someone explain what this is on his leg?

Looks like a white sock to me.

Doesn't look good, does it?

 

[Blue&WhiteSea]

He probably trod on that plug on the floor!

 

[Hugo Rune]

We 100% need a new left back in January.

Can’t see Perv (or Lamptey) being fit enough to play for weeks.

That looks really bad news…..

Have seen them used to protect damaged ligaments….. perhaps using to also restrict movement around hamstring?

Possibly had an op and being used to keep everything in place post-op. Def looked like a knee injury at Ajax

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Looks like an out for the rest of the season job to me

 

[medwayseagull reborn]

I see all the highly qualified medical practitioners on NSC are having their say.

 

[um bongo molongo]

God that doesn’t look good does it. Is that definitely from this week? Wonder if we can beat City, Liverpool, Juventus to Valentin Barco as we could really do with someone else in (who could also play further forward when Pervis is fit)

 

[Mancgull]

At Ajax he seemed to be inferring that he felt weakness in his knee. If it’s ligament damage that’s very bad news. Braces can also be used as a precaution.
We don’t seem to say much about injuries apart from Roberto saying it could be a long/bad one, or it’s not bad. Not much in between and he rarely gets into prolonged conversations about them.
Expect some journo will ask at the next press conference and we won’t get much of an update.

 

[saafend_seagull]

Oh dear. Significant absence. I guess that’s his season done.

Have to sign barco beginning of January since lamptey is going AFCON
