Which long term injury would horrify you most?

Postby blues2win » Tue Aug 07, 2018 7:03 pm

No more transfers now. So who would we miss the most over a long period?

Ederson for me. Surprised Bravo hasn’t been replaced.

I genuinely think we suffered most when Dave went away for an extended period last season (I know he wasn't injured Phips!) And I think he's who we miss most......still.

I think Bravo is slowly finding his confidence again after that abysmal first season. His distribution on Sunday was world class. Of course we would miss Ederson, but he hasn't been tried too much as a shot stopper either, so I'm not sure how much.

I think we would really miss Kun if he's gone for a longer period. Where will the goals come from?

And KdB of course. He is out of this world at the moment.

Bravo was back to his clownio best on sunday..I take it you never watched the whole match?

PS His distribution was never the problem.

I did watch the while match. He totally misjudged that bounce in the first half, which I think might have been down to a very dry pitched, and he spilled a shot straight out in the first half.

The situation in the second half I don't blame him for. He made a really good save from the cross, but the ball got a very strong spin, which made him miss it when he dove in to collect the loose ball.

Forgot to say: it certainly wasn't the one shot, one goal Bravo from his first season.

Ederson.

All other positions have at least two covering players if necessary. Not even got Gunn anymore

Kun.
I want to see one injury free season for him before he goes.
Let him show the PL what he’s capable of over 38 games.

Bravo,s finest contribution was cleaning the rubbish from the pitch after the PL Trophy pitch celebrations at the Etihad end of last season , highest paid fucking cleaner in the PL absolute embarrassingly shite keeper .

I've got to say, but I was underwhelmed by his distribution on Sunday. 2 or 3 times he seemed to hoof it when under what seemed minimal pressure. Having said that, it's never been the part of his game that I've been critical of before.

Seriously? The way he kept on picking Walker and Mendy out with the high balls over the first pressing line was very impressive. And that ball to Kun!

All I'm saying is, who could we possibly get in as a second keeper who fits our system better than Bravo? I am, and Pepe seems to be too, willing to ship an easy goal every now and then in exchange for a keeper that can keep us playing our game.

I don't think it ought to be blasphemy, just saying 'Bravo'.
