pcbear 10,913 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 Ouch, he was just getting up to speed and we were getting an hour of class per game off him, we do have plenty midfield options with pace which may result in a more pressing formation v the tims.

Sket 13,610 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 Brutal. It's one thing after another this season. We knew when he signed he was susceptible to injury but come on to fuck Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

loyalfollower 1,543 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 I think the key wording for any manager doubters if freak training ground accident. fuck it. Â Back to a young midfield 3 every game now, wish niko a speedy recovery as he can be good but I'm hoping to see a faster midfield now Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wearethepeople1 3,897 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 Fuck off man!! What a cunt of a bastard season already, let's just it over with see where we end up and start a fresh in the summer Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluepeter9 5,167 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 Ducking aweful news to wake up to -Â but instead of sympathy for Niko and the team the usual blame game merchants start apportioning blame and can't accept accidents happen - just about every first team squad at the highest level carries a number of injuries - it's one of the reasons why large pools are needed - do we really need to do this navel gazing blame seeking even for this?

Prso's headband 35,446 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 That's a real fucking shame btw. He was really coming onto a game as well. Windass, Forrester, Holt, Waghorn, Wilson, Kranjcar, Kiernan. Obviously it isn't just related to Krancjars age. 7 players have had serious injuries since August. Clearly something isn't right here Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't think there is a reason why we have a lot of injuries this season? small knocks and strains turning into 5/6 week lay offs? No consistent back 4, no consistent midfield 3, also Waghorn being out for a month at the start of the season? This doesn't raise a suspicion in your mind that something's not right?

STEPPS BOY 73,909 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 If true, that's him finished. Hard enough to come back from these types of injuries at best of times never mind when you're Niko's age.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeirFleckNRothen 1,789 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 Likewise, I don't mean to come across as a doom-and-gloom merchant, but I wholeheartedly agree that this season has been a disaster. I wish Niko a speedy recovery and hope that it isn't as serious as media outlets are reporting, but regardless, I didn't want him anywhere near that pitch on Sunday. I still have nightmares about his 45 minutes at Parkhead. Â Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottyc06 6,915 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 Not surprised at all, he was injured when we signed him, it's taken him until now to get back up to speed & that's him fucked again! Doubt we'll see him again if the extent of the injury is true, by the time you factor in time to actually get match fit again as well! Windass straight in for me! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MayboleLoyal_atb 3,688 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 Disaster of a season so far. If there not sorting out the Barton situation then bring him back and give him a chance. Two of our highest paid players will be no where near the pitch now Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You make 2 different points injuries are part and parcel of football - as is dealing with the effect of losing an injured player. Things ain't perfect but they are no where near as bad as some of the 'blame culture  brigade' would make out - we have had to chop and change the back 4 / midfield based on injuries - suspensions - and the JB issue but that's part and parcel of any team - it's why s strong squad is so important Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pearson83 1,059 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 I always find it strange the manager never says about players been out its always on match days you notice they are not on bench or in team.

kanjo 26,328 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 This isn't a MW thing, it's a club thing.  I've known very few clubs to get the amount of injuries we have in the last 7 odd years.  Really annoying. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KWBear 1,640 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 So other than Niko, Barton, Wilson, and maybe rossiter and Crooks, we're in a good place and we trained well with a full squad fit and raring to go. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
