cambridgeshire canary 6,680 Posted September 29, 2022 All taken from todays presser. "Both CBs are training today. Grant had an injection after the West Brom game and feels a lot better. Andrew needed to recover with a slight groin problem. It was too risky to go and play games and both managers and countries were understanding. Isaac Hayden had to go for a review back at Newcastle and they felt he had a slight effusion in the knee, so he's not trained yet. I expect him back in the next two weeks. Dimi has been out on the grass running, non contact. He is the closest to being back. Lungi is still in a boot and Sam is doing gym based work. Liam Gibbs will train today. He has completed all rehab work and made a swift recovery. If he trains well he'll be a valuable addition. Rowe's scan was really positive but he's got another couple of weeks of recovery still. Adam Idah is still out." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt. Pants 4,202 Posted September 29, 2022 Sounds like Gibbs could be very close to a return, fantastic news. No update on Idah. Sounds like a similar situation to Hayden and we aren't going to see much of either before the WC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheBaldOne66 681 Posted September 29, 2022 Is anybody truly surprised about Hayden? What a signing yet again by Webber the Waster! Sorry, but nobody can defend the signing of this known crock 😡 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cornish sam 949 Posted September 29, 2022 The phrasing about Hayden is interesting, it was that "he had to" go back to Newcastle for a "review" and "they felt" almost implying that this was not something we initiated or that we thought there was necessarily a problem.its almost as though we thought he was ready to go but the terms of the loan meant Newcastle had to ok it before he could. Would be interested to know what the terms of the loan are regarding wages whilst injured, especially if they have a veto in such a way... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I get the sense Newcastle are picking up most of the cost, I'm sure if anything it doesn't cost Norwich until he is on the pitch. Hence the clearance required as they are probably keen to ensure he isn't terminally crocked thus losing them a transfer fee, or worst case, insurance cover. So still I would expect it is good business from our perspective if frustrating, but does point to there being a fee payable c. £5 - 10m if we take up the option.

NorfBhoy66 7 Posted September 29, 2022 His wages allegedly" according to today's press Isaac Hayden – Norwich City paying only around £20,000, with Newcastle United paying the vast majority of his £50,000+ a week wages. Other sources say it's nearer £100,000. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If he’s coming to us on £100K and is prepared to accept earning at most half that once we buy him in order to play (this is assuming the injury heals) fair play to him.

I know peterboro have a guy on loan that arrived injured and they are only paying for him once he’s better. Perhaps this is similar? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So he was unfit or a known crock “Crock” implies either a long-term or repeated injuries to me. Name me a player who hasn’t been injured. Something like 99% of those recover. We didn’t just ring Newcastle and say “send him down”, there was medical due diligence first. Also, I would have thought his position is one of the most likely to be injured. Is there anything in that? 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PockthorpePete 331 Posted September 29, 2022 1 hour ago, TheBaldOne66 said: He was injured when we signed him.... Which would suggest we are not paying him to recover, given that it was not like a broken arm where the rime span is known. We only benefit from having a stronger squad if they are fit. Injured regulars usually give youngsters a chance to break through - but the two who should be stepping up Springett/Rowe are also out. We do seem to be suffering from non contact injuries, whereby the players legs seem to be breaking down with some sort of stress. Are we pushing the players too much ? I would be curious to know how many of our lot, out on loan, pro rata suffer similar injuries. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vlad666 203 Posted September 29, 2022 The wording about Hayden makes it sound like Newcastle’s physio department doesn’t see it the same as ours. Regarding payment surely we will be paying for him as soon as he signed his loan contract. He’s not on a pay as you play contract. 🤷🏻♂️ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Norwich wants him on the pitch as soon as possible and doing something for the club; Newcastle wants him on the pitch in sufficient time to meet the performance requirements for a compulsory sale with the minimum risk of the injury blowing up again and scuppering the sale. Newcastle want to make sure we don't cut corners and risk a relapse that blows the sale. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They are also the ones that will be paying his insurance policy so won't want us to mess up any claims by being negligent. It's probably standard practice for the parent club to want to monitor injuries, don't think it necessarily means they are casting shade on the quality of our medical team. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Even multi zillionaires dont want to see a 5M + asset be used unless its properly fit to do so. Theyll bleat on about player welfare etc but the bottom line ...as always , is dosh.
