Before Watford he hadn't played there for about 7 years. And he was dreadful against Watford Exactly. He should not be an option for playing on the wing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mcginn has covid, Bailey hasn't played for a long time. Watkins is finally back. We're having a bad spell, I don't think it's aome massive issue that we can blame the club for. Because no other club bar Liverpool in 1 freak season appears to have the trouble with injuries that we do. Every season is marred by multiple long-term injuries to key players. That's not normal. Also re Bailey what are you talking about? He played for Jamaica all summer and played for us 2 games ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not true we had less injuries than most clubs last season. Only lost Jack for a large period of time. Most are starting 11 played 90% of matches they could. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bailey hasn't had a proper pre season. So not unusual to pick up little niggles and pulls. I would imagine you don't pay enough attention to other clubs to think we're the worst or abnormal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVTuco Posted August 28, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted August 28, 2021 Even with that line-up, we have to be favorites. I'll be disappointed if we don't win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeypuzzle Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Cracked rib for Mings, in case no one has said already. Not sure about Ramsey. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where are these coaches that as supposed to be coming in to replace O’Kelly and Terry? Almost as if it’s a let’s wait and see how he performs before we start investing in more of his backroom team. Been down on our luck for a while… Covid last season, injuries, disruptions. Disruptive start to this season. Hopefully our fortunes will change soon. The sooner we get our best players on the pitch, the better. Really would like to see a few more signings too… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do realize their are websites where you can easily look up injury tables. Multiple teams are missing 5+ first teamers. We are going through a rough spell but nothing that multiple teams won't equally experience at some point during the season. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then international break gives us time to get a proper manager in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sne Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Do not have a great feeling going into this one. Midfield looks soft and the CB pairing of Konsa & Tuanzebe is not going to be great in the air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only way to heal that is rest. He better be planning to skip his callup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
