    Lascelles

    Quote from Gimpy:

    “The disappointing thing is we’ve lost Jamaal Lascelles with a foot injury which happened last week against Spurs.

    “It’s not looking so good at the moment.

    “He’s going to have more scans over the weekend but we think it may be a stress fracture.”

    “That is a blow to us, leaves us a bit light at centre back.”

    Two words - Florian Lejeune.

    Bruce, you are a fûcking mông.

    Bruceless himself said that it was better for Lejeune to stay where he was to get game time.



    i.e. he wouldn't get it here.

    This is a problem entirely of his own making.

    Perfect chance to bring him back when Yedlin left and freed up a squad place but no bungle gave the squad place to Atsu who never even gets on the bench. well done Brucey

    I’d love some statto to look at matches lost due to injury by central defenders plus others who play there as a secondary position like Hayden and Dummet over say the three previous seasons and particularly the previous season under Useless Bruceless to work out how much cover we were likely to need. I bet the answer is blôödy obvious that we shouldn’t have let him go, at least not without bringing another one in or having a good prospect from the academy (academy!!! ).

    Letting Lejeune leave (on loan!!!) is quite possibly the biggest blunder we've made in years.

    He had injury problems, yes, but he is miles ahead of Lascelles and Clark.

    Whether you insert a clause or not... you cannot add anybody to your 25 once it is put in..... so as soon as Jan 31st passed lejuenne was gone for the rest of the season

    Have to hope so.

    Otherwise - Dummet coming in?
