Lamptey has done brilliantly at LB since he came in
But he is unlikely to be able to play 90 mins twice a week for the next month. He won't get a break for the internationals, so we need some other cover there. So who? .......
Igor? Hmm ... a few wingers will be licking their lips.
Milner? Wingers will be positively salivating, if he were fit
Samuels? I don't know enough about him to comment, but the fact that he doesn't seem to be hammering on the door of the first team squad suggests to me, he's not close to this level yet.
So what to do?
Step forward, Solly March the left back, OK, OK, I don't claim this is ideal. I do claim this is our least worst option. Intelligent player, he has pace and tenacity, he's not played full back much, but he has played left wing back and done his defensive work diligently. He's a loss from the front line sure, but Adingra Fati etc, we can cope. Stick Solly in the backline

It’s now drifted slightly, others spotting the Estupinan bad news?
On Betfair Exchange, then EPL games > at the bottom More EPL > then All Markets and you’ll see lots of season outrights.

Oh here we go first sign of him not being the messiah and its RDZ out.
Are you not familiar with Dwayne’s work?
Not good news at all about Pervis if not predictable. The lack of right and left back signings in the summer was a mystery.
So he's a Spence in Dwayne's clothing.
No its not good, essentially our squad from last year has been gutted, lost Ali Mac, Moises permanently, Enciso and Pervis for most of the season, Pascale is out, March is a worry and the cherry on top, RDZ looks stuffed.

For God sake give Mitoma a rest. It's obvious he is not 100%, but still exploited by RDZ.
He got them promoted , they had a decent first season and then they were completely wiped out .... strange injuries / players lethargic and battered at the start of games. He ran them into the ground in training and in games and it eventually killed them
Hopefully that's not us !!

I think they were helped by a mid season covid break in their promotion season. The previous season they tailed off badly.
seems to be an awful lot of injuries across the league for this early in the season

We haven't lost Pervis for most of the season. We have lost him for some tough fixtures coming up, however it could have been worse without the international break if he's back in a month.So he's a Spence in Dwayne's clothing.

Gross is back in contention for tonight but personally i'd be surprised to see him start.

Would rather see Gross saved for Liverpool if it's touch and go.
I don’t trust De Zerbi’s guesses at how long a player will be out now. It’s always the worst case scenario. I was not expecting the legend Groß to start this evening, De Zerbi said after the international break. Hopefully his analysis of the time out we’ll see through Pervis’ muscle injury is similarly flawed.

Funnily enough I had the same thought after the Villa games, time will tell.....
