Kayal

[The Rivet]

For me personally I am confident. This club, under Bloom and Houghton is strong. Norwood and Sidwell and Stephens will be fine.

Out until at least December after ankle surgery

bit of a blow this,but we do have some very decent cover

Been thinking about this and our injuries to key players every single season.

Then I was thinking who would be be happiest to be injured ( if that makes sense )

You wouldn't want any striker injured as that kills us
Knocky - Season over
Wingers - probably not
Bong - No cover
Bruno - faith in Hunt ?
CB - Possibly as have great options and depth. But wouldn't want Dunk out.

Bottom line is whoever is out injured its a nightmare. We do have cover who hopefully can gel with Stephens though

Isn't Pognog cover for Bong?

We just have to hope Kayal is the only one big long term injury problem we have this season. If it is, we'll be OK as this season we do appear to have better cover in central midfield than anywhere else. That said, it probably makes a Stephen move in January even less likely than it was before.
