Negredo

Speaking of Twitter, a lad says his mate spoke to Negredo at Bridgewater, and that he was fuming and said it'd be 2 months. Unsubstantiated rumour and a very unsettling one.

You forgot to mention the part where his mate visited him in hospital (LOL).

I am not saying his injury may prove to keep him out for a while although having seen the replay many a times I am convinced its an AC joint minor grade but if you want to post these tweets from these twits go right ahead lovecity.

Tendonitis isn't a chronic condition.
It does tend to be. It's inflammation of a tendon. That usually develops over time. Many footballers and atheletes have it, and train and work through it, but have to rest when it gets too much. Lots of older people get it as well when their joints degenerate and bony outgrowths on the joints rub against the tendon

A medical condition, to be classed as chronic, means there is either no cure or that it has to be controlled with medication. ie. Diabetes, Crohn's disease, Glaucoma etc.

Tendonitis is an acute condition which flares up for many reasons, like those as you state above, however in those instances, it can be treated with rest, medication or surgery. Once this happens, the associated inflammation in the tendon will subside. Ergo, it is isn't a chronic condition.
An chronic condition is one that is long lasting, and an acute condition is one which is sudden. Tendonitis tends to be long-lasting and persistent. See Craig Bellamy, and Roque Santa Cruz and Rafa Nadal who are all sportspeople who have suffered with this for an extended period of time.

Hasn't Salfordpaul got some contacts there? Its not his twitter is it?
 
Plain stupid to leave him on the pitch for so long or even start him. Devante Cole or any other young striker could have played...

Vs Watford the same, no need for Yaya, Silva, Agüero, Kompany getting hurt before huge games in the league.

Speaks good spanish does he!

Exactly. Can you imagine, Negredo telling some nobody he is absolutely fuming and it will be 2 months in Spanish to some bloke who can probably barely understand English!

Arf!!!

Stop talking sense.
 
Even if he does miss a few games it's a blow, but not a huge one. Aguero is back, Dzeko is on form, Jovetic is on his way back, and even Lopes has shown he makes an impact against top division teams. A bit of a break now (even if it's enforced) might actually benefit us when it comes to the run in. I'm sure the other attacking options we have will keep sticking the goals in.

I think the worry, crucial in Pellegrini's system, is partnerships. The last time Aguero and Dzeko looked good together was the start of 11/12, and Negredo seems to be just the right blend to pair up with either of them. Jovetic and Dzeko showed a lot of promise in pre-season but you can't leave Aguero on the bench.
 
He will be a big miss, but lets hope Jovetic can steal the show now and score some important goals.
 
I like Pellers my respect for him has grown but keeping Negredo and Aguero on the pitch after half time was stupid, if Negredo is out for any length of time he must personally take the blame, he still has a bit to learn about the English game
 
I seriously hope he isn't out for a lengthy period of time.

What he gives us over the other strikers is work rate off the ball and the will to come into midfield when we are out of possession, this is vital in enabling us to play our 442 system because without it we would struggle immensely.

We only have to look back to the Bayern Munich home game when Dzeko and Kun lead the line, both didn't want to drop into midfield and it left our midfield immensely exposed, this is what is going to worry me with Spurs and Chelsea coming up if Negredo is out for a long period of time.

If he is out for Barca then for me the dream is over, going into that game with no Negredo and Nasri and without a striker willing to drop into midfield we will get battered, and I don't see Pellegrini dropping a striker for a midfielder to compensate for it.
 
Shame but these things happen, not too worried I know it would be better to have a fully fit squad all through the campaign but that is why it so much a squad game. If worst came to it play one up top which would be Aguero and pack the midfield I don't see a problem. Looks like he will be back for Chelsea anyway. Still annoying. :-(

Get over yourself with this "the dream is over" nonsense. Bayern beat them 7-0 in aggregate last year FFS. I am not saying it will be easy, far from it. But IF, yes IF Negredo is not fit by then, we still will give it a bloody good go.
 
Why do so many people feel the need to post "I suspect the injury is xyz" with zero evidence to go on?

I know it's a forum but groundless medical speculation constitutes neither debate nor information. It's just a waste of bandwidth.

End of moan.

Personally I blame Tomkins and Negredo himself.

Crazy to blame a manager for a player getting injured because he didn't take him off.

Like blaming him for not taking off Nasri against Newcastle at half time.

Poor substitutions when the game is in on the line yes but not for yesterdays injury to Negredo thank you.

He could have done a Jovetic and got injured in the 7th minute and you have said he shouldn't have started.

Ha Ha I was wondering when you were going to turn up, you're like a rain cloud on every thread,

Don't write him off for Spurs just yet.

Wait until we hear more.

We knew Nasri was going to miss 6-8 weeks this time after the Newcastle game and I think the fact we haven't heard much yet even from the press suggests

good news.
