That's a nice way of putting it. We were clearly told there no more injury worries. When did he get injured, just before our game with Watford?
It's early days.
Have we been told what Dunk's injury is?

Can't get use to your new avatar. Any chance of going back ?

Dunk [ankle] - "“At the moment it doesn’t look like [a long time out], so that’s a positive.
“It’s certainly not as bad as it might have been. How long we don’t know but we are probably talking weeks" (Tuesday August 21)
Hughton didn't add much more at the pre Liverpool press conference - "Lewis Dunk hasn't trained this week but it's not as bad as we first feared"
Bruno [hamstring] - Argus : "likely to resume training next week" (week beginning Aug 26)
Andone [groin] - out for Man U - "unclear" when he will resume training. according to Argus reports - Aug 21.
Izquierdo [knee] - "making good progress...Albion hope he will return to training week after next" (week beginning Sept 2nd)

We can probably "afford" a few injuries now - but not in December! Just checking the fixtures, we have 8 games between Dec 1st and Jan 1st. That's over 20% of the season in a month. Crazy. Clubs that have injury crises around that time could well be doomed!

Hughton did an interview post Liverpool on availability but didn't give any more detail...on Dunk, Bruno, Izquierdo and Andone apart from confirm they were out for Southampton.
He also gave an update on Ben White
Ben White [unknown] - "He came off in the Arsenal game [for the under 23s last week]. The good news is he's fine. We were certainly worried initially.
"He is okay but I don't think he will make Tuesday/Southampton. He would have played."

Hughton gave an interview post Southampton but had little to add to what we already know.
“Lewis Dunk is better [his injury/recovery] than what we thought which is really good. He and Bruno are the closer ones. More realistically it will be after the international break.”

Only 18 fit and nominated players ( + Steele ) for Saturday, so the matchday squad picks itself.
Of course the 25 man squad is finalised on Friday, so in theory this may not be the case by the game.

I hope in today’s presser CH will be asked about Andone. I think we need some information. Signed three months ago, he still hasn’t kicked a ball in anger. What is going on with him?

If he does and mentions “niggle” I hope someone has the good grace to laugh out loud

He played for 45 minutes v Nice in pre-season, whether that was an angry kick or not , perhaps not. He has a groin injury but there is no clear date for his return to training. Last update was last week so likely to be a further bit of detail today or not.

Today’s Argus love in article says Bruno and Dunk POSSIBLY back post international break, Jose and Andone not yet. Nothing more.
Expect to see neither this side of Christmas at this rate.
What I really don’t get is Duffy played on with a groin niggle, then had an operation meaning he missed a week of pre-season yet has returned to the fold without so much as a band aid.

Not sure why its so hilarious that when a footballer returns from injury and recovery is not going as hoped Icy ! Anyway hardly even happens to the Albion . Medical team have won or been nominated for the best team in their league (awarded for fewest injuries) for last 2 years.

Its merely the report from the post Saints press conference. Brighton and Hove Independent published the same quotes yesterday (see above)
https://www.brightonandhoveindepend...-match-southampton-press-conference-1-8617105
NB: Locadia, Murray this season and 15+ players last season all returned from injury or knocks last season in the same or earlier timeframe as Hughton predicted.

I half make these posts to wind you up Chailey, and you bite every time
You miss my point completely though, I would not expect someone to laugh at an injury, more to do with the fact that so many long term injuries at the Albion are termed “niggles” initially. We are past the niggle stage with Andone I think CH should do his best to avoid using that word for Andone’s condition now.
