He gets injured making his cornflakes... corners of the press continue to pretend he just can't get in the team and his absence has nothing to do with constant injuries. What a shame, he is the only academy player around the first team but his injuries are endless.

He's managed only 177 Premier League games in 8 (entering the 9th) seasons in the first team. Kompany is on 152 games in 5 (entering his 6th) seasons even with his own injury issues.

So comes the dilemma, what do you do if Arsenal come in with a panic offer of £15m to £20m? There would be outrage if we sold Micah as he is the symbol of the academy, the proof to kids someone can make it... but he's hardly ever bloody fit. I mean this could be his last injury for two seasons for all we know, or he could end up with another in a few weeks time and the cycle could continue.

I think it actually works in our favour that he's injury prone. If he weren't he'd probably still end up being second choice to Zab, and then I think he'd agitate for a move. As it stands, his injuries play into our hands in terms of keeping him. For the club it's a no brainer, you keep him because he's homegrown and because he offers something Zaba doesn't.

Also think with his pace he might get a chance to play as a centre half with the high line we're using.

Is it one of those hamstring strains like Rooney had in the Far East?

So Jovetic and Nastasic back for Cardiff. Micah and Kompany the two injuries for now? Hopefully back by end of international break at the latest.

Billy, can I just say that your idea that Micah's injuries play into our hands is so far off the wall as to be in the next house!!

Hard to believe he's injured again. Get back soon Micah.
