Ghost Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 I think you can see him getting injured on the AVTV highlights of the game against Rodinghausen. Towards the end, when Steer makes the one-on-one save against one of their players, Okore seems to pull up quickly clutching his hamstring. Hopefully it's not too serious.

LondonLax Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 So the 'out until Christmas' rumour is a load of rubbish? Please be a load of rubbish... Yeah, if its just a hamstring strain he will be fine in a couple of weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theboyangel Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 If Josh Webb's gone out, I can see Herdy being pushed into CB and Webb as RB cover. Shame for Jores but i'd rather him have a slight knock now and rest/treat him properly before the season starts. I expect Jores will stay with the team to help getting to know the other players too.

Jimzk5 Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Hamstrings are funny injurys, unless your 100% when you return from injuring one you will just pull it again, id guess thats why webb has been called up incase okore doesnt feel right. Id be amazed if he misses the arsenal game let alone out till xmas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villabromsgrove Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Is Donacien injured as I would have expected him to be the replacement for Okore. Lambert must think highly of Josh Webb, to include a 17 year old in pre-season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
packoman Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Webb going out could just be that Lambert wants more subs instead of just one for the second half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lowton can play CB as well Aye true - would Lowton to really kick on from a great debut season in the Prem as a right back. He put a delightful cross in for Helenius last night, which is an area I think he can improve on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billybofalbion Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Just watching the interview with him on AVTV. Seems to be a genuninly intelligent and articulate guy. Really impressed with how well he knows his own strengths and 'what he can bring to the team'. Like the player a lot so far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smetrov Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 So the 'out until Christmas' rumour is a load of rubbish? Please be a load of rubbish... If its a total tear (avulsion) then it could be god knows how long. However as he was able to limp off the pitch I would say its no more than a grade 2 - about 6 weeks tops -the only danger is that unless the underlying cause is addressed it will go again - I beleive this is what Owen\Gerrard suffered with in there early careers. I guess he will be touch and go for the opening games. Although I would rather delay and get him 100% - any points from the first few games are a bonus - might think differently if we had WBA, Hull, Crystal Palace - games we need to win. I hope this makes Lambo consider getting another CB in Anyone remember Neale Cooper ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
