Injuries - 2023/24 | Ederson cleared to return to training (p 146)

[Stoned Rose]

That’s our usual midfield of Kev and Gundog wiped out.

Fucks sake.

Pep will need to weave his magic.

 

[Pingu the Penguin]

Consequence of an absolutely relentless stretch with the winter World Cup following the euros etc

 

[LongsightM13]

Think both Kev and City gambled on this being manageable without surgery. And the gamble has failed big time. Ah well, some you win

 

[bladdered]

Real shame that we let Gundo go. Thought he was always the one to step up in the past when Kev was injured. Time for someone else now. Hopefully Phil or maybe Jack in a more central role?

 

[Lovebitesandeveryfing]

So what we know now, among other things, from what he himself has said, is that he already had the hamstring injury, and was playing in pain, when he played the Arsenal match at the Etihad. I was there for that one. When I think about how he played that night, and how that match completely knocked the stuffing out of Arsenal, I'm in awe.
I don't forget Aymeric, also playing in pain, at the end of the 2021-22 season. We were down to the bare bones at the back.
Along with Zab, Kev is The (Second) Fucking Man…

 

[Revolver]

On reflection it means that Foden and Grealish have to kick on this season. They’ve both contributed to our recent success but if they can reach another level consistently ala KDB now is the time.

 

[Dave.]

KDB out will be a glimpse into our near future without the main man. It’s lucky for us we have the best manager in the world to find a solution. Our players not too bad either too…

 

[chaddblue]

Potentially disastrous. Not only lose our best player and the best midfielder in the PL for up to half the season.. it also reduces Haalands effectiveness as he sometimes looks a bit lost when kev ain’t there

 

[Tangled up in blue.]

If he's going to be out for months they might aswell put a new hamstring in.
If they just treat the injury until its heeled it'll probably go again

We didn't let him go. He chose to leave.
