Could be a blessing in disguise and allow willems to make the position his.
Of course if he's ever not available and Bruce doesn't change to a back 4 with Dummet at lb..well....
Still not great to lose him, regardless of the potential benefit.
Do we know what injury it is?
Let’s see what the diving Jetro has to offer. Never been impressed with Ritchie as a winger he has zero end product
Jetro is injured.
I wanted to comment that there is a history of this kind of challenge going un punished against our players.
De Jong broke Ben Arfa's leg and didn't even get a yellow. Kane put Lejueren out for a season didn't get a yellow.
Now Richie is hobbled by Chaudry and the FA aren't suspending him or fining him or his Leicester.
Classic southern bias
Willems trained yesterday, should be fine for the match.Quote:

We will miss Ritchie.
Ritchie has become just that though...a player that runs a lot. He not particularly good at anything. He doesn't create from the wide position at all even when played in an advanced role. We looked more dangerous when Atsu replaced him on Wednesday.Quote:

He should be behind all our left sided options (not including wanquillo) and be a bench player.
Well. At least that's a bit of positive news
100% agree mate he should be a bench warmer at best. Atsu brings a lot more attacking options to the team than sideways/backwards pass RitchieQuote:
