Andrew Omobamidele Out again With groin injury 😭😭

[Maltesecanary 19]

Not Again 

[The Real Buh 3,423]

Defensive frailty 

…yay…

[Branston Pickle 3,632]

Where’s that news? If it’s minor it might only keep him out of the internationals?

People do seem to have failed to notice that we’ve played 10 league games (would have been 11) + 2 cup games in  7 weeks. That’s a lot. It’s not surprising we’ve got injuries and players needing a bit of a breather.

Edit: I dare say some will blame Smith for it, after all we never had defending injuries under Farke (that’s sarcasm)

The plus side is that the start of his recovery is during the international break meaning he'll miss fewer games for us.

What is it with our luck? Every bloody season it's the same

[shefcanary 2,383]

It's just a tactical injury, to give him a rest! 😉 It's what the big clubs do, welcome!

You're slacking CC. No thread from you? 😛 😄 

[Capt. Pants 4,195]

No problem Gibson will step in.

[Pyro Pete 1,889]

We've got 11 games in 6 weeks coming up.

We'll need everyone fit.

[pete 318]

We need 4 fit experienced CB's.  And come up short in this department season after season.  Even giving a veteran a pay day for just being in reserve would be preferable to being continually short at the back.

[CUSDP 50]

I’m sure he will be fine. 
 

am I the only one that thinks he’s been way below part the last few games. Never seen him so bad as he was on Saturday. 
 

im thinking this break will do him the world of good.

He was poor on Saturday

It was one of those games tbf. I wouldn’t call Sargent or Pukki poor though, they were just not able to get near it. Byram also had his moments. Despite the conceded goal I think he shows a lot of positivity going forward. I rate him highly

Aaron Ramsay was impressive. That’s aside nobody. 
 

I do rate big Andy but I don’t think he’s as good as many make out. I wouldn’t call him a rolls Royce

I thought the same, misplaced passes and seemed slow to make decisions. Let's hope it's a blip.

Good luck with that - there were 8 out injured on Saturday, few of them due back soon.

This fella is out of contract. Wages might be an issue but could solve a problem if on a short-term deal IF(?) he is fit that is.

Might be a problem getting a work permit for him and you have to wonder why he is without a contract when he's only 27...

[Bovril 219]

Nothing to panic about here. He will miraculously recover by the time we play our next game against Blackpool. 

He's played a lot of games recently and needs a rest (as evident by his overall poor performance like most against West Brom), 'strains' are usually used to cover this. 

[PockthorpePete 331]

Is he out for Blackpool (and other games), as the OP is inferring? I must have missed that.

[Nexus_Canary 1,016]

Seriously our medical staff must be incompetent at best.

What you reckon we have 3 UEA trainee physios and a vet???

 

Norwich sign a guy in a wheelchair with two double broken legs

"Yup light training he will be fit by Saturday"

I suppose if Hanley turns out for Scotland v Ireland this Saturday it will be slightly worrying as we know he has also been carrying an injury and will sort of rule out AO being a 'tactical injury'. Surely if you rule out one then you rule out both of them.

Wolves are in for him, apparently, in which case there's no chance of him coming here.

[Canary dwarf 221]

Hopefully it's not too serious, very important player for us , will be a great player otbc,

[AJ 1,218]

Hopefully just a "I'm injured because I want a rest" scenario we often see with internationals rather than a genuine setback for him. Fingers crossed as him and Hanley are definitely our best 2

[king canary 7,578]

Jesus, it's like some of you have never followed football before.

A player who has started several games in a row, didn't have to come off injured on Saturday suddenly finds he has a minor muscle injury before an international break is a shockingly common occurrence and usually is paired with a miraculous recovery after the break is finished.

I'll eat my hat if he's actually inured and doesn't start v Blackpool.

Ahem. You were saying? The timing is down to Scotland's medical team being more sceptical than the Irish teams perhaps?
