[Football] Adam Webster - our next England centre back

[Milano]

Webster being out for weeks has changed my mindset on the Palace match. How lucky can those twats get?
Is it just me or is he bordering on being labelled ‘injury prone’ now?

If he is - then Lamptey is a crock.

Think you are being harsh, both were impact injuries were they not?

I think Webster kicked the ball and then went down clutching his thigh? Zero contact with another player…I don’t think

[MENTION=3462]Springal[/MENTION]: this is how I saw it too. Pretty sure it's a hamstring injury, which are rarely impact injuries.

 

[Jimmy Grimble]

We will miss his pace. I think we will soon find out how much Potter and co. rate Roberts as a potential first team player.

 

[Mike Small]

We'll miss him versus the twats. WOuld have been good V Mr Tumble although Veltman as part of a back 3 is great. For the Palace game i'd be tempted to play March RWB (although fear for Cucarella in that game) as he gets the rivalrly and is good against Tumble. Anyway, Leicester first. Fancy us to get a positive result. We certainly owe them.

Why would you fear for Cucurella? I think he’s a right little shit destined to become a cult hero, hopefully starting in the Palace game

Hopefully he's about to take over from The Greyhound as winder-up in chief of SEGW.

He was caught out badly on a few occasions against Walsall the other night

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

Bad news. Some big games in that. Get well soon Adam

Good news is Burn is back in contention.

I also can't help but think just how much Haydon Roberts would balance that back 3. Possibly freeing up Veltman to play Right Wing Back. Gross is out as well of course

I am expecting the Computer to be RWB on Sunday

Think he could be found a bit wanting by the pace and power they've got. He got bullied a couple of times V Brentford including a centre back just powering past him (dribbling) in the first half. That said, yeah once he's used to the PL he could be a bit of a cult legend.

 

[JonnyCLately]

Any word on when Webster is back? I've probably missed something Potter has said but thought he was due back now?

Graham Potter said he was back training pre Norwich, so I'd expect him to feature in the squad soon.

 

[JonnyCLately]

Thanks Papa! Think we miss him more then we think going forward

We definitely do. When Duffy tries to dribble out of defence it scares me.

 

[LamieRobertson]

Who gets dropped when he’s ready to start .or will he have to bide his time on the bench?

 

[Medwayseagull]

His extra pace is missed.

 

[Swansman]

Someone not named Dunk.

Will maybe get eased in this time around rather than rushed as when he came back in the spring. Might be on the bench against City & Pool, then return to the starting eleven against Leicester in the Caravan Cup and keep his place after that.

We definitely miss him carrying the ball at pace into the other half. A good weapon as long as he doesn't push the ball too far in front and get dispossessed before ha can pass it.
