Injury prone players

Postby Breks » Tue Oct 08, 2013 11:49 am

Vinnie, Rodders and Richards are becoming way too injury prone. Should the club consider offloading them in the summer?

True.

We are the only club to suffer injuries after all.

Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit. I'm putting the question out there because i have been contemplating it. No matter how good a player is, what good are they injured. Players come and go but the Club remains.

The ones with great attitudes and talent like the 3 you mentioned definitely don't "come and go".

'Becoming'?!?

We clearly need a right footed centre half as cover for Kompany. It may be Demechelis will be it or maybe Richards could be the stand in. Kompany's injuries all seem to be connected, which is bad, especially as he gets older and starts to feel the compound effect of continuous injuries. Anyone can get a knock, but he's having a number of muscular type injuries

For Richards, he's never going to play 40 games, but I'd put Zabba ahead of him anyway, so it's less of a problem than it used to be.

Rodwell - he's looked a great talent since he broke through at Everton, but his injuries seem likely to ruin his career. He's fast turning into Michael Johnson. If he can't become a regularly available member of the squad by the end of the season, I'd agree we need to find a replacement. It's concerning that the only midfield cover we have is Garcia (I'd like to see Milner in there, but two managers disagree with me).

Sarcasm isn't the lowest form of wit...Obviously, you have never read many of Slim's posts...and/or Dronny's jokes.

I think sometimes my sarcasm is so advanced that people just think I'm being a dick.

You have yet to advance to my standard Slim. I can now multitask on this and be both sarcastic and a dick...all at the same time.
You have much to learn Glasshopper...:-)

is that you Mo?
Never criticise a man until you've walked a mile in his shoes.
That way when you do criticise him you'll be a mile away.
And you'll have his shoes.

Depends on the impact they make when fit. Spurs persisted with Ledley King for years for that reason, ditto rags and Ferdinand. Vinnie is a certainty, the others more a matter of opinion.
