Brucie has just said it looks like Catts and Turner will join Richardson and be ruled out for the rest of the season our current injury list... Craig Gordon, Michael Turner, Titus Bramble Marcos Angeleri, Kieran Richardson, Lee Cattermole, David Meyler, Danny Wellbeck, Fraizer Campbell, Asamoah Gyan if I have missed anyone I am sure someone will correct me BUT.... we could still put a team of... ------------------ Mignolet ---------------- Onuoha - Ferdinand ------ Mensah - Bardsley Elmo - Henderson - Muntari - Colback - Steed ---------------- Sessegnon ---------------- tomorrow and still have Zenden and Riveros on the bench who are part of the first team setup what I am trying to say is all this blame aimed at Brucie, could anyteam outside the top 6 have coped anybetter than us with all the injuries, we could still put out a respectable side tomorrow, just think back to a couple of years back if we had had 9 or 10 of our main players injured we would of been f****d
ever thought of entering into politics? Bruce has pretty impressive record of injuries to players under his tutelage, this has to be looked at if he stays (god forbid). Nothing overly against the team you’ve quoted…………..but don’t think SAF (or any of the top six managers) would be overly happy if that was what he had to play with
Apart from Marcos, the injured are all first teamers (or subs) Cast you minds back a couple of years when we had the likes of Murphy and Halford playing as first choice! Imagine the side we would have to put out if ten (or nine) of those were injured!
Roll on next season, need a bit of belief in manager and team, after the summer I and many like me will try to live the dream, until then, I have a bad feeling, we have got all the points we are going to get.
