[Albion] Injuries

[chaileyjem]

...telling us how long Pedro is out for.

If he's injured . Is he ? Sounds like you've something to share ?

 

[chaileyjem]

Oh i see @Commander has been sharing rumours that Pedro is injured over here

[Albion] - Joao Pedro Brazilian Maestro

They've got the cash, that's not the problem. They just can't legally spend it. I agree with those saying the transfer values and likely wage expectations of top players have now halved or more since the Everton points deduction. What is less clear is how it will affect clubs like us who are...

FWIW -before we all have a heart attack then i'm pretty certain thats Pedro in this training video from (i assume) yesterday morning before @Commander shared his rumour from someone "who knows the players" .

I fear you may regret that little jibe, young man.

Its not a jibe at all. Just sharing the info you're sharing. Its quite the scoop , if true. But You're the one who knows the timescales here.d
First time i've been called a young man for a long time too. So thanks !

Son (back from Asian Cup) and Bissouma (back from AFCON) are available for Spurs v Brighton tomorrow.
via Ange Postecoglou pre match press conference. Bissouma , despite reports of malaria infection, is fine.

And @Commander has his scoop . !! Hamstring injury for Pedro. So out for Spurs. Not clear how serious it is yet.

 

[chaileyjem]

Pedro via Maldera at the presser
""Unfortunately has a hamstring injury. He did a scan two days ago, had another one this week. He has a problem, we don't know how many weeks. We don't want to take a risk."

(you'd think he'd be back in time for the Europa League ...hamstring injuries weeks not months but not always easy to predict)

I think he’s usually right about these kind of things?

Would be an insane thing to make up. Bizarre.

I'm hoping it's some kind of Colleen Rooney style ploy by the club to identify whoever is feeding Mr Lion (and Hinshelwood is just fine)

The Hinshelwood injury info was shared at the press conference yesterday and I think embargoed until this morning.
Speculation about time out - wasn’t afaik.

Any idea why it would be embargoed but the Pedro injury wasn’t?
