Van wink 2,994 Posted September 12, 2019 Tomorrow probably. Hope we dont rush him back for this game if he's not 100%. I do wonder if Zimbo was really ready for his return! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Strange comment - how exactly do you get ready for a 13 stone striker smashing his studs into your ankle two seconds after the ball has gone? 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeh thats a fair comment, but he was quite heavily strapped on his leg, I dont know, it just occured to me that maybe we were so desparate to get him back that he may not have been quite ready, last season he seemed very resilient.

Tetteys Jig 851 Posted September 12, 2019 not as concerned about this weekend. It is a bit of a free hit anyway. Just hope Max and Zimbo are back for the nicer run of games after this weekend so we can crack on up the table. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I knew exactly what you meant. I thought the other comment in reply was stranger in all honesty! It's the age old thing about not rushing a player back if they're not 100%. In our case, and quite unfortunately, we had to with Zimbo. Didn't really have another option. As for 'how do you get ready for a 13 stone...yadda, yadda' The answer to that is... Football is a physical game and that stuff happens regularly. If you get a bad tackle on the area or same side that's already damaged, but you've been rushed back into a game, it's more likley you'll end up injured even worse instead of bouncing back from the whack.

Van wink 2,994 Posted September 12, 2019 "Daniel Farke will be forced into changes to his starting line up for Saturday's televised test with Christoph Zimmermann and Tom Trybull ruled out through ankle injuries suffered against West Ham prior to the international break. Farke will provide a further fitness update on defender Max Aarons on Friday lunchtime at Colney, following his ankle scare on England Under-21 duty, but number one Krul is backing the fringe players to prove their mettle" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hopefully they’re indeed just rumours and no inside info, but thought I’d pass on what I noticed as it had not been mentioned here yet. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It does happen quite a lot that someone has an inside track on these things, I remember someone saying Elliott Bennett would be out for the season after picking up what looked like an innocuous injury on the first day of the season (Wolfie's debut against Everton IIRC?), and that turned out to be accurate.

Yeah, but just saying it's not beyond the realms of possibility that the true prognosis could get into the public domain before the club announces it. Right, I'm off on holiday.

As it happens, Bob, our injury crisis runs far far deeper than I could have ever envisaged prior to the press conference - hate sore losers but I do feel like the gods are against us right now folks. Not 1 fit central defender - I can’t remember when we last had zero CB’s available, god knows what we’re going to do tomorrow mate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Surfer 1,547 Posted September 13, 2019 We are going to lose. Now the important thing is the team and crowd stay on-side with each other. Although sone may take the cheap shot of “I told you so”, nobody could have planned for this combination of injuries. So tomorrow we will be fine, the crowd know we are going to get tonked, but the team need us for the next batch of “winnable” game even more now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FFS I can't take much more of this defeatist nonsense. Godfrey in his interview the other day was full of confidence and talking about trying to get the three points on Saturday.
