[Albion] Injuries 2024/25

[Milano]

Rutter’s injury at the end of the 1st half was an impact, not hamstring. My guess is he’s done something to it in the 2nd half.
I think Minteh hurt himself with that rubbish touch when clean through, then stretched to try to recover it.
This is becoming farcical. FH has got no chance with this.

 

[Milano]

We have an expensive squad being miss managed by an inexperienced coach

Utter bullshit

 

[macbeth]

being brutally honest, the season is just a complete write-off now at this point. it’s beyond ridiculous. i don’t ever recall an 18 months like this in all my time of supporting us.

 

[BRIGHT ON Q]

If Pedro is back for Ipswich along with Welbeck and Lamptey we still got a decent enough team.way better than last season when we had no wingers or full backs for 1 game I believe

 

[Mike Small]

Georginio should have come off at half time.

Lots of things wrong with our injury record this past 2 seasons. We’re not even in Europe this season too.

 

[Milano]

So let me get this straight - it’s now looking like FOUR players were injured v Norwich? I’d be slightly concerned if I was this new head of medical, I’d be expecting a “my office now please” memo from Tony.

Utter bollocks. You weren’t saying that last season when we were suffering injuries all the time and the Mardy from Lombardy was here sounding off every week.

Four?

…..and it was his ankle, not his hammy

 

[saafend_seagull]

Well that ends any loan out for Ferguson and enciso.

Would recall facundo if injuries are more than a few weeks.

If you look at the latest players injured they are in and out the match day starting line up far to often IMO. Rutter was benched for three games for no apparent reason, Minteh 10-20 minutes here and there. Wieffer similar, Lamptey dropped when on a run of decent form. Igor dropped for no other reason than Dunk was fit.
Not a lot makes sense this season regarding team selections.
We’ve gone through half a season of squad experimentation no wonder we struggle to win a league game.

Can’t, our break clause was reportedly conditional on him not getting enough minutes

Four?

Rumours that JPvH and Velts too

I assume you are referring to this from the Norwich matchday thread - it was posted before kick-off on Saturday, they aren't actually injured.

 

[Ooh it’s a corner]

Rumours that JPvH and Velts too

No that was just someone’s comment beforehand because we put out a stronger team than many expected - he was right in the sense important players picked up injuries which was the point he was making.
We can’t have our cake and eat it though - many of us were pleased he took the Cup seriously and enjoyed a rare victory

 

[Dibdab]

Our medical team must be totally useless. This has gone beyond bad fortune.

Another agenda-ridden perspective.

We don’t sign young players and start putting them in every start up - they need to work up to Premier League condition - Lamptey and Igor were in and out because of injuries to Velts and Dunk both of whom add a maturity our back line and unless you are suggesting we should not have let the Captain back in, where should we keep starting Igor?

Weiffer, Georginio and Minteh all needed time to bed in and be tested at Premier League level - at the start of the season, we had a lot of new and some very young players under a new manager so unless you think Fabian should have arrived in July, picked a starting 11 out of a hat for 2024/25 and stuck with it for 6 months without rotating any other new players in or building up players who had been out for long term injury then none of what you said makes sense to me.

Imagine how bad our injury list would have been if we hadn’t spent 250K on a new German Doctor in the summer…….

They’re not. Ask Solly.
