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

[Kippax Street 1880]

If memory serves right, I'm sure Aké started life as a midfielder & was moved to central defence, hence being comfortable on the ball.

Looks a bit like Ruud Gullit with his current hairstyle aswell. Tell him grow a porno tash for weekend and we'll give him a run as DM.

Any word on Johnny's injury?

No need to flap, every team gets injuries.

Any word on Johnny's injury?

No word is really needed. Pep said it's the same injury that kept him out most of the season.

 

[Shrimp]

I don’t think there’s much wrong with JS, yeah he may have a little knock, but I think Pep is protecting him from waistcoat and pointless England games, that’s my theory anyway.

Hope you're right.
It could be an elaborate hoax by Pep to ensure his man is available and rested for the run of fixtures after the international break. An absolute masterstroke from the maestro.

Very true.
On the positive side we've still got five excellent defenders in Gvardiol, Ake, Ruby, Akanji and Walker.
Not to mention that Rodders can at a push play at CB which he does for Spain.
Job's a good 'un!

Tolmie suggesting we may hear something positive regarding KDB in Pep's press conference later. Fingers crossed.

True enough but it's that CB/midfield role where we will miss Stones

Akanji back

Stones maybe available for Liverpool, not as bad as 1st feared.

Kev before Christmas!!!!!

Positive news.

Thats encouraging news, is that from the press conference ?

 

[ealing blue]

Last time we thought Stones injury wasn't serious, he was out for 2 months. I'd be amazed if he's available for the scousers

Last thing we need to do is rush him back anyway, it is what it is.

Yea it was on the OS. Pep being cautious and obviously nothing concrete on return dates for stones or Kev but looks good that both will be available in the not to distant future.

*Checks national media* We have no injuries. Every other team has terrible injuries.

 

[Withnail]

Having a fit Kdb back in the squad will be a big bonus. Like Stones no need to rush him back, but hopefully we will see Kev back in a blue shirt before Xmas.

Not doing too well on my football PL pontoon competition entry, 4 City players to score 21 goals between them.
Grealish - Injury hit season, 0 PL goals.
Stones - As above, 0 goals
KdB - As above, 0 goals
Rodri - Success, 2 PL goals

Did you pick the players yourself ?

*Checks national media* We have no injuries. Every other team has terrible injuries.

Or if they admit we have injuries we always have a 'bigger squad' to choose from.

Did you pick the players yourself ?

Yes, 'fraid so.
Last season my four were Rodri, Stones, Foden, Bernie. Bang on 21 goals going into last game and £250 coming my way...then bugger, Haaland decides to pass up an easy goal and crosses to FODEN to tap in.
