Knockaert injured

I suppose so it depends how you read my posts.

for me; it's necessarily, repeatedly

I do indeed realize it is not meant in vengence, unlike a few on here.

Vengence for what?

any news on Knockaert

Any news about his injury? Why no news is it that bad, any injuries are usually known quite quickly if the team were playing.

Yes his leg fell off this morning but we're playing it down as "just a flesh wound" and he's likely to be back in a couple of weeks.


No news because it's soft tissue damage which will take 4/5 days to show anything before which scans/x rays are often less than useful.

I personally think ligament strains and therefore 4-6 weeks out.

Club will be very circumspect about any news anyway, always are. 'Close to a return' could mean another 3 months.

Let's just hope that it's a sprain. Watching it back it looked relatively innocuous.

RIP Knocky.

What a load of absolute nonsense.

It's normal for a PL club to have adequate quality cover for each position, should injuries or bans arise. If you look at the way positive minded managers deal with injuries, for example Howe, Klopp and Hughton, that never look at these as big blows. Instead they just get on with finding solutions with alternatives. Leaving the "suffering" to pensive fans.

No, no it isn't. Jansson isn't quality cover for Kane, when Mane was out the Liverpool side they had inadequate replacements, Arsenal were playing an almost entirely out of place defence at the end of last season, City without Aguero (prior to bringing in Jesus) were significantly worse. I could go through almost every single PL club that do not have adequate quality cover for their star players and plenty that don't have quality cover in general.

Still no news on the extent of the injury Knocky's sustained on Friday.
Is there any reason to really worry about severity of the injury? Major swelling, so the club cannot x-ray the ankle.

I'm thinking back to Duffy injury and i'm pretty sure the first we were told was after he had an operation? Pretty sure he did it on a saturday and we were told monday he had undergone surgery

RIP Knocky.

Easy there chap. This isn't Billy Sharpe we're talking about here.

Just bumped into Solly March in Morrison's Eastbourne, tried to get an update on Knocky but he said nobody knows the extent of the injury... FYI - He purchased a cucumber sandwich! I told him not to eat such rubbish!

I call BS - Premier League footballers do not shop in Morrisons - Waitrose all the way.

Why would I make that up, there is no story to tell I just saw him whilst buying a sandwich on my lunch break and tried to get an update on Knocky. If I was talking BS I would say he said AK is out for the season etc.....

The cucumber sandwich bit is true too and I think he was jealous of my chicken and bacon purchase!

Hughton is an M&S man.

Hughton is an M&S man.

What he does in the privacy of his of own home is ....oh M&S, not S&M.

Not true as Frank Lampard and Raheem Sterling both reported in branches of Poundland on a number of occassions

last time i asked solly for an injury update he said "it seems OK!"

I was asking about Rosenior and I don't think we saw him for another 8 months.........................
