    Bugger and damn, injured in pre season training. Operation tomorrow could be out till next year. ACL is bad news no one has ever come back better than they were before. Really sorry for the man he had bags of potential, the only thing that can say is , if he looses a yard of pace, after the injury is healed he will still be faster than most other defenders. Get well soon Levi.

    Terrible bloody timing, he looked set for a great season with his recent experience and game time. We do have pretty good cover though,especially if Fofana and Trevoh blend well as CDs. Plus Renato Viega’s an option?
    Oh well, more stuff for Maresca to sort out.

    Now add Trevoh to the problem pile. His injury didn’t look too bad, so he might only miss a couple of games.
    This bomb squad I don’t like.
    Players have been overlooked because Maresca thought they didn’t suit his system. But neither did Gusto, or Cucurella or Reece James at first either. Plus Maresca Ball has been a flop, only the players decision to run with the ball turned our fortunes, and surely even Maresca can see this. Chilwell is a top running left back with a great cross and an eye for goal. Viega plays left back and CD.
    Time for a rethink ?? Who knows with our owners.
