I f***ing KNEW this would happen. He's been absolutely on fire in Fifa for me, then gets injured vs Bolton and is out for the season. Coincidence? I think not.

Your support is not that great
The guy seems to be cursed. Unbelievable that even after two seasons at the club I still have no real idea how good he is, though some others seem to have made up their minds one way or the other.

This was the opinion of others I spoke to aswell, seems he is destined to be a sicknote for the rest of his career.

Really hope its only minor. A knock on the knee, at the time, can feel HORRIFIC so his reaction wouldn't be a suprise if that's what it was.
For the part he was on he was making very good runs to open space in the box and was always available. He also created two similar opportunities where he layed the ball off in the box for a midfielder to attack.
I say this about a few players, but it just smacks of a player who needs a run in the team. The quality is there certainly.

I genuinely think Hoskins is better suited to our game than CMS, was chuffed with the starting lineup, thought he did ok until he went off. I guess CMS will start on Saturday, but Barnes on Tuesday for me.
Gutted for Hoskins. If only he'd scored one or two of those sitters he missed against Forest, I think the doubters would have a different view. As for being "not surprised" he got injured, WTF?

I was gutted, but not surprised. He is prepared to get in where it hurst, unlike CMS and others.
I hope this is not the last we see of him.
F. My calendar is of of date. We aren't playing on Saturday.
Have to question what game you were at.

I sit in the centre of the East, the game I saw had Hoskins out wide on the left desperately trying to get involved in the centre. He held the ball up well a couple of times on the edge of the area, I think that led to the Hammond slice in the first half or possibly the one Kean nearly fell over himself on, but he made no real impact. I don't dislike him, I just think he's being serially underused and I feel great sympathy for him from a football perspective.
But his frequent moaning about the kit does grate on me. I read the whole programme every game and there have been a lot of references to the collar. Just annoys me for no particular reason.
This - Gus said he has a future at the club (surprising) but i do hope its not a serious injury. I really like him as a player - he must have broken several mirrors and run over a dozen black cats poor bloke.

I would rather play Hoskins on crutches than Barnes.

Don't wait for me!
Eh? Hoskins link up play with Ulloa for the first 20 minutes was brilliant. Incredibly strong on the ball, keeping the ball alive. Not sure what you want from him. Goals? Well maybe someone should create a chance for him, until then his relentless teamwork until he went off would have kept him up front for the next match and challenging Barnes for first spot.

Would like to see him stay beyond the summer.
Don't think he could argue with being offered a reduced wage - still likely to be as good if not better than what he would attract elsewhere after an injury hit two seasons, and he would not have to relocate etc.
Far better suited to playing in a front two with Ulloa than out on the left of a three mind.

saw him at Jurys inn earlier, was limping and struggled to get into his car.

He thumped the ground in frustration before he got helped off. You could see how much being in the team meant to him. Really sad, just hope it is nothing too long term.
