[Football] Zaha out

[grubbyhands]

Who's that pontificating prick on YouTube. Doesn't he/they realise that if you persist in hurling yourself on the floor you'll eventually end up hurting your knee. Also, his mum is going to be very cross with him for sticking all those photos on his bedroom wall

Until I see him incarcerated in plaster of Paris I’ll assume he’s seconds away from winning a penalty. Always.

Don’t get excited. Before you can’t say, “I don’t believe it, they’ve been awarded another one” it he’ll be diving off the treatment table and spilling himself all over the pitch again.

I gave him a bit of credit for staying up in the box yesterday, but his gurning really hacked me off all the way through the match. It was like he was trying to do as many Dwayne Dibley faces as possible.

He is their talisman, without him they are gonna struggle

The 25-year-old was sent for a scan on Monday to discover the extent of the injury but has now been referred for more treatment, meaning he is expected to miss at least four weeks in the latest setback for manager Roy Hodgson.

Goalkeeper Julian Speroni and defender Martin Kelly were also both due to be sent for scans on knee and hamstring injuries on Monday, with Scott Dann, Jason Puncheon, Jeffrey Schlupp, Connor Wickham and Reuben Loftus-Cheek already among the long-term absentees.






Maybe they have a Groupon on knee scans they want to use

I think their run-in is almost the reverse of ours - tough games first and then an "easy" finish.

Losing him for the tough games and then having him back for the "easier" games wouldn't be the end of the world for them.

Incorrect rumours on a twitter account doesn't often get sports journalists sacked does it.

Dominic Fifield is also on the report byline now. https://amp.theguardian.com/footbal...le?CMP=share_btn_tw&__twitter_impression=true He is their lead football journalist. Whatever you think of the Guardian, they have a reputation for decent journalistic standards.

I'm gonna put it on record that they will be second bottom come April but will STILL comfortably stay up

It's the palace way

Not the end of the world for us either if they take points off our rivals. Back on 15th April is fine by me.

Don't worry, they've still got benteke............

Actually, that's Daniel Taylor. Dominic Fifield is their London football correspondent (and a Palace fan, yet still a good bloke despite that). But I agree that he's a more reliable source than most and that if he has retweeted Ed Aarons' post it has more credibility.

If the worst is confirmed, at least he won’t miss the World Cup through injury. He’ll miss it for other reasons

They're talking about four weeks at the moment ... he’ll probably be back in time to play in some of those pre-tournament friendliest against teams that ARE going to Russia.

 

[Pavilionaire]

Worrying times for Palace as the injuries begin to pile up.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Judging by the opinions on this thread, whoever it was who rebuked me for suggesting elsewhere that a season long injury among the squads of our opponents was a a baleful and malignant sentiment can clearly do one.

 

[NooBHA]

I'm gonna throw a different spin on it

I wonder if he and his Agent have been ''taped up''

And if Palace go down they will feel the need to sell to subsidise if they spend more a year outside PL and thus keeping him injury free come the next transfer window ?
