Not until it starts I wouldn't think.
Wish I hadn’t.
Not until it starts I wouldn't think.
Does Montoya have a work permit yet, if Bruno is not fit for the next few games. We would need Schelotto and him to cover for that position.
Assuming Schelotto is in the 25 man squad.
If Bruno is out long time surely he wouldn’t be in named 25 and Schelotto would?
So to the point of this thread, did Hughton mention how long Bruno might be out for so we can track whether this is anywhere close to actual?
We had to name the squad last week.
So the way I read it is we named a 24 or 25 man squad last week. It goes to the Premier League who then publish it on 1st September.
At the fans forum last Wednesday the panel said it would be published next morning, people have implied we have kept it secret now due to possibly affecting the price on any sale of any unnamed players.
So of we have listed only Montoya and Bruno and the latter is out for a bit, we cannot then name him retrospectively.
Please feel free to amend of correct my thinking.
Latest - Hughton quotes -
Izquierdo - now confirmed as knee - “probably is going to be a little bit longer” [before a return to training]
We can make changes with PL permission.We had to name a squad before the first game, but I believe we can change it on September 1st at which point it is fixed until January. What I don't know is whether we can change the squad daily until that point if we choose, or whether it is fixed from now til September 1st
I'm interested by that as my 12-yr old daughter told me Izquierdo had a knee injury 10 days ago - information gleaned by some social media of Jose's - and yet that information hadn't made it into the public domain. People need to get with the youth more
Outstanding injury issue is Jason Steele. He’s didn’t play in pre season but afaik , no reports why.
