To be expected with an ACL injury, it kept Van Dijk out for that longOriginally Posted by KSE Comedy Club
I just hope we don’t go back into the market. We’ve got more than enough defenders even with him injured. It’s bullshit, if he doesn’t rate Tierney that’s one thing but Tavares was his own signing. So reflects poorly on his judgement if he lasts a year and is got rid of
It's just gutting as I thought he looked very solid.
The only reason we conceded against City was because he was subbed off.
May have been because the ligament was going but he was rubbish against Forest
No I get it, I think he’s a very good defender. I just don’t want more cash spend on defenders. I don’t think we are going to buy anyone else anyway simply because we are not getting any cash for our rejects (Balogun aside) but if we do don’t want us buying a defender
Yeah, feel the same way.
The defence was doing ok till he had to drop out
Apart from him giving the ball away under no pressure and the defence allowed a headed ball to put Johnson clean through
Dreadful luck.
I would definitely keep Tierney now.
There must be some kind of insurance in place after paying £40m for a player and they are fucked for a whole season? And may never be the same.
Is it dreadful luck or do we buy injury prone Duff's?
No it’s bad luck, an ACL is an injury that occurs suddenly, potential occupational hazard in football. Nothing that suggests that a player is going to be prone to such an injury. With Van Dijk it was caused by thuggish sliding tackle on the knee, with Timber probably an awkward turn
Curse of football. Bobby Pires v Newcastle. Bastard injury.
Shame. Hell of a footballer Timber.
Yes, we will need to replace him as Tomi, Tierney and Tavares are not top top quality.
We need a striker too. Up to the club to get rid of one of Balogun or Eddie, and Tierney is a safe bet for moving on.
Never the same KT since he got injured early doors. He’s a chugger though lads, not a top tier inverted fullback (even if that is only a fad). He’s a traditional fullback…unless we’re aiming to play with a traditional back four, he’s surplus to requirements. Was shocking when he came on v City
It's better to burn out, than to fade away.
