Injury Team

[Jammy89]

Pope

Manquillo - Botman - Burn - Targett

Longstaff - Willock - Anderson

Murphy - Wilson - Barnes


Not a terrible side in it's own right.

Then you also have Tonali who is banned.

[Zippity]

Never known anything like it.

Yes, you only need a goalie with that list and you have a full team.

Pope. . . ?

Pope. . . ?

I hope he'll be back quickly and not join the crocks.

Pope has a dislocated shoulder, I’ll be 3 months out I reckon.


When can we expect players coming back?

[Sclox]

Anyone reckon we need a keeper in January now?

[Zippity]

Not for me.

I think Dubs is enough of a decent replacement to allow us to spend money on a striker.

Unless we were replacing Pope-which would take big money-then we'd only be getting someone in short-term and it would be dead money.

Yeah. Though a dislocated shoulder is a dodgy enough thing, especially for a goalie. Would hate to be down to Karius again at the end of the season. Maybe a young gun 19/20 with huge potential could work as a contingency.
