What's "a little bit of a long time"?


And before anyone pipes up, yes; his English is markedly better than my Spanish.

It's like a little bit of a big meat pie. Ie: Not a lot of it.

Why is half our squad injured then? Who's fault is it?

Dias was fine to fly to France for the Ballon D'or party now he's injured for 2 weeks? Fucking why and how? What's going on?

Are you actually ok?

There’s a bit of a difference in flying to France for an award ceremony and putting 90 minutes in on the pitch!! :-)

I think Pep is either being very clever with player injuries or it will spectacularly fail like the dropped points at Bournemouth.

I wouldn’t be surprised if he is allowing the players time off by giving such bland statements re fitness and timeframe. Out for a little, long time. Could be interpreted as we are using the injury to give them
a proper rest. It could be a masterstroke if we go on a winning run after Jan.

I think the same, he's just resting players who he thinks are in need of it

The injuries aren't ideal, but thanks mainly to the virtual non existent official communication we have to rely on contradictory twitter rumours and the odd response from Pep in a press conference (which immediately becomes headlined and twisted on social media)

Oscar Bobb was injured mid August and we were told 3-4 months for his recovery
That would mean sometime around mid December, but now we're told that everything is ahead of schedule and he could be back in Jan/Feb.

"non existent official communication "

Do you want Pep and the club to issue the players full medical reports?

Go and have a lie down or you will be joining the sick list, the man in the white coats will come knocking.

 

[Whether or not]

I think there is some truth in this. We have repeatedly come strong in March onwards, often after multiple injuries, just as Arsenal and especially the scousers run out of steam, having completely failed to rotate. I’m pretty sure that is the objective again. That said, with the ever increasing workload, we could do with boosting the squad number by a couple.

Will KDB be going on international duty next week, if he plays any part in the two games this week?
I wouldn't like to think so.

That goes for a few others who are just back from injury.

Stones is a strange one, seems to pick up a lot of injuries away from actual match days and be out for an unspecified period of time with a lot of them

Well, to put it another way, " it's a very big bit of a short time"
