Not an impact injury, but one he could done diving or jumping in training. Feel for the guy. Thank goodness Kalinic is coming in! 16 minutes ago, TrentVilla said: Very easily. I did mine just running and coming to a stop, no contact. Obviously I’m not a pro footballer but the principle is the same. In fact quite a lot of players who do this injury do so with nobody near them. 16 minutes ago, Daweii said: You could rupture your Achilles walking to the fridge. It's an injury that anyone can sustain at any time. Now sport with extra stretching and snap movements like jumping increase the risk, but any motion that triggers the Achilles from walking, running, or jumping can cause that thing to snap like a guitar string if you're unlucky. I didn’t realise it was that common. Just bad luck I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 Feel for him. Hope he recovers soon. So does this mean Bunn plays v QPR? I’ve seen mixed reports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a 1 in a 100 injury according to the guy who operated on me. The most obvious example I’ve seen is when Beckham did his with nobody near him, I was looking for the video of it for you and found this. It was that painful when I did it I can’t actually watch it but I’m assuming it’s a good explanation of the injury. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maqroll Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 Sad news. Seemed like maybe he had started to settle down some. Makes January a ll the more vital. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever I think of his performances I feel for the guy, it’s a horror of an injury as I know myself. That screws the plan for cancelling the other keepers loan and Nyland being number 2. 2 days before Kalinic can play. LOL That's ridicilous actually.

I'd still like to free up that loan spot, I'd imagine Bunn or Steer could be number 2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junxs Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 (edited) Sad for Nyland I wanted Steer to be number 1 at the start of the season, but whats the point of recalling him for one game? we have Bunn, Moreira and Sarkic - if we can't trust them for just 1 game between them then might as well terminate all 3 contracts edit, actually Sarkic might be on loan somewhere, but the other 2 my point stands Edited December 30, 2018 by Junxs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 I feel for him but it's hardly a blow for us tbh, unlikely he would have featured at all for the remainder of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bunn shouldn't even be at the club tbfh, and I have no idea why he keeps getting contract renewals. I watch him warm up the No.1 every other week at VP and the guy is the most technically inept footballer I have ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People will point out the good saves he makes, today for instance he made a truly brilliant save, but it doesn't make up for his overall game, he is a keeper you expect a few saves. It's like playing golf, now I'm shit at golf but every now and then I'll put a 200 yard approach within 2 inches of the hole. That sort of shot happens 5 times for every 100 attempts with the others going out of bounds. That's Nyland to a tee (crap pun intended), the good is far outweighed by the bad. He made an awesome save yesterday..... but then spent the rest of the game trying to gift Preston a goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thunderball Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 Such a shame, we have invested in him and he was turning the corner in his last two appearances. Can we recall steer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree that it is sad news but to say that he had started to settle down is not true. Yes he is a decent shot stopper but he reminds me of Dracula - he is afraid of crosses.

hippo Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 Shame thats probably the last we will see of him. Happy with Steer as no 2 though - and we have won games with Bunn in goal ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villarocker Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 I hope during the recovery from his injury he watches some videos of the best keepers around to see what they do differently to him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
