Have heard that defence of him before and I accept that certain players get injured more than others but we are talking about a succession of injuries, one after another, a run longer than many players’ careers.
I think about guys like Butcher, Brown, big Marvin playing through knock after knock, giving (literally) blood, sweat and tears for the jersey and playing through the pain barrier.
John Souttar has ruptured both Achilles, one of them twice but his attitude has always been about getting back on the pitch as soon as he can. The contrast between him and Roofe is stark.
Now I don’t know the minutiae of every Roofe injury, partly because there’s so fucking many and partly because I get angry thinking about guys like Jordan White, less talented than Roofe so plies his trade at Ross County. Jordan is a diehard Bluenose and would walk from Dingwall for the chances that Roofe has had.
I find it incredibly hard to believe that Roofe has been unable to do the job he’s well paid for (for only a third of the time) because of injury for over a decade.
A couple of big blows, like Souttar, can happen but we’re talking months on end for injuries far, far less serious than ruptured Achilles.
Be so glad to see the back of him.

If he’d had anything close to being as serious as a ruptured Achilles, we would have heard about it.
And the manager should be turning to senior pros like Roofe to help the team, not asking if they need their arses wiped.
This idea of ‘rushing him back’?  A handful of partial games in a season is not my idea of ‘rushing’ him ffs.
Maybe pressure is what he needs because years of babying him have done fuck all.

None of the strikers we have at the club are the answer. Danilo can be a decent option as a backup but we need major investment up top.

And that’s why sensible people don’t go near (anti)-social media.

But what?

Phil ran out of miracles.
Good number of that squad are either sub-standard or dead on their feet or both.
Fully fit Cantwell plus Cortes, Sterling, Sima and Danilo and we win that game.
Phil has wrung every last drop out of Dessers, a sad excuse for a forward. He must have no part in our team next season, same as Barisic, Davies, Jack, Dowell, Matondo, Hagi, McCausland (harsh but he’s never going to make it if we’re being brutally honest) and Wright.
In the meantime, get them rested as much as possible between now and the end of the international break and let’s get ourselves a treble.
Its the best way to finance the overhaul we need.

Thought we looked absolutely spent in the second half fitness wise. If we can get 3 points on Sunday then I'll be delighted to go in to the international break still top of the league and still be on for a treble

I don’t think we were let down. Just had nothing left in the tank second half.
Injury list is having a big impact. 

The result will all be forgotten when we win the league

Luuk de Jong.
Bit of a cunt but undeniably very effective.

Would be nice to be on cooncil telly other than finals.

And Dortmund and Benfica matches should have been wins, not draws.
Two goals up on Benfica and cruising and a ridiculous disallowed goal against Dortmund.

Normally hate international breaks but this one is coming at a good time for us.
