[Albion] Jakub Moder

[Kosh]

Great to see, but he’ll be miles away from even featuring for the dev squad…

Looking at the scarring on his knee - ouch, he’s been through it that’s for sure, really hope he can find his way back

Certainly a very capable player, who let’s not forget made Kyle Walker look very clumsy during that game vs Poland a while back …

Good luck Jakub

I would love to see Moder playing in the middle of an RdZ team. I think he'll be a perfect fit.

Hmm. I'm not convinced. I think he was more suited to a Potter set-up, being more fluid. He might be more suited to a 10/ACM/support striker role (a la Lallana) in a RDZ system. Can't see him being used as a winger/wide forward, and have my doubts about whether he's got all the required attributes for CM. But, with a bit of luck, we'll get to find out.

I wonder how much his injury was a sliding doors moment. We had been on a terrible run upto that Norwich 0-0 at home when he got injured, then beat Arsenal away the following week with Caicedo playing. I know it wasn’t necessarily a like-for-like swap, but Moder being unavailable must have made it a lot easier to pick Caicedo.

From that game onwards we’ve not really looked back.

how long was Solly out for the 1st time?

He was out for just under a year. Solly got injured against Derby in Dec 2015 and returned at the start of November 2016 with a sub appearance against Bristol City.

Do we take the fact that the club have included him in the 20-man PL squad list (A), as an indication that he might just feature this side of January?

Or is that list literally just every single player over 21 on a pro deal at the club?

Every over-21 player at the club (who is not out on loan*) is on the list, so I don't think his inclusion tells us anything about his likelihood to be fit this side of Christmas.

Perhaps more worryingly, he has NOT been included in the A list for the UEFA Europa League, which might indicate he is not expected to be playing first team football between now and December.

*Intriguingly, Carl Rushworth (who IS out on loan) is also included.

Although you are probably right, it might be we know he definitely won't be ready for first 3 or 4 Euro fixtures, and if he does come back before Christmas, he definitely won't be playing 2 games a week for a while.
Re Rushworth, presumably that is hedging against an injury to both first choice keepers which could happen. I assume we have an early release clause on his loan as a consequence

Teams can sign an emergency goalie on loan at anytime during the season, if they have an injury crisis. I would imagine they can recall outward loans too in such an emergency.

I suspect the club know more than we do on this latest comeback attempt. I’m hoping that they wouldn’t go near this story unless they are sure he is well on track; hopefully we’ll see him back in the stripes this side of Halloween.

 

[dstanman]

So pleased to see him training again and after the length of time he has been out no need to rush the last stages

 

[SULLY COULDNT SHOOT]

He's coming..... and the wait will just make it feel even better (see below)

 

[GingerBeerMan]

Any news of note? Was such a promising player before his injury

Only latest info was a social media post about 3 or 4 weeks ago showing him back in training. Potentially only individual training though, rather than group work.

 

[sagaman]

Really hope he recovers full fitness. A horrible injury.

Would be a great additional option for us in midfield if he can get back to his bes

Hat trick tonight I reckon

 

[AZ Gull]

A welcome sight today:-

 

[Sheebo]

Don’t forget how well this lad was doing… would be starting many games if he was fit and playing like he was. Him and Gilmour would work well for me…

A welcome site indeed, let's hope he's over his injury issues.

Providing his rehabliltation continues and he makes it back to first team action, this could be akin to a new signing for us, there are many fans new to the Albion over the last couple of years or so who will never have seen him play.

I'm not new, but I'm beginning to feel that way.

 

[Cowfold Seagull]

Me too, seems like a distant memory the last time l saw him in an Albion shirt, unless it was all a dream of course?
