GJL Mid-Norfolk Canary 1,800 Posted December 19, 2023 (edited) I can see the FA Cup match vs Bristol R being pefectly timed to ease Sargent aswell as Hanley Gibson Hwang Sorenson back whilst also giving the likes of Forshaw game time Edited December 19, 2023 by GJL Mid-Norfolk Canary 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Have to admit, I’ve always found it odd that under successive managers, injured players are forced to take grass before fully rejoining training. The managers are even brash enough to announce the player being on grass at press conferences! Amazed the police don’t take any action. However, putting aside the legalities, I can only imagine there are some health benefits for professional athletes. I’m wondering if it works equally well for office workers returning from short term illness. Thinking of trying it following my inevitable new year hangover… 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ulfotto 644 Posted December 20, 2023 Can we just take a minute to appreciate the turnaround in Sargent fortunes. The guy was a joke 18 months ago whereas now he is Dean Ashton meets Teemu Pukki. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He got more stick than even the other two misfits, Rashica and Tzolis at one time with posters suggesting that he "wasn't even a footballer." I remember being chastised for suggesting he would become a fan's favourite in the Championship. Now, he might even lay claim to having Premier League credentials with the amount he has to offer. Never the classiest, but effective nevertheless. Edited December 20, 2023 by BroadstairsR Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt. Pants 4,277 Posted December 20, 2023 Hopefully Josh can pick up where he left off. Having (a fully fit) Barnes just behind him could be key as we haven't really tried Josh in a different set-up in the Championship such as playing alongside Idah or Hwang. Likewise this could be lift for Bashley as well - Josh covers a lot of ground and does a lot of work in a high press. Much to look forward to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pete 320 Posted December 20, 2023 Maybe back in the new year will not be match fit for a month following. Don't expect Josh to be of mwaximum until February. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
