Squad injuries / Izzy Brown

[bathlad61]

Bad timing / new training regime, or just pure bad luck, but somehow the remaining squad just need to get through the next 3-4 matches, fingers crossed no more setbacks / red cards etc.
Surely now MB can see that the squad come Jan, does need some strengthening ,teams in and around the top places will be recruiting for sure.
The Izzy Brown situation is crazy, still coming back from long term injury / wont be seen for possibly another 6-8 weeks, why bother to loan in a player in this condition, surely the clubs medical team must have had some reservations. Chelsea may well be paying the guys wages, but what a waste of time / energy, when another loanee, fit and ready to go, could be out on the pitch. If this was MB"s decision alone, have to say its his first poor one.

You may be right with needing other loan players now...but not sure we can say this is a bad decision at this early stage. Won't be determined until later in the season when he is involved. What's to say he won't be the one that makes that extra difference to get us over the line?

Come January I expect to see him pushing for a regular first team place and getting it on merit - if not he my as well go and clean the floor at Chelski
