I don't think there's a chance in hell the Euros is going to be played. the dots after the euros comment was deliberate (although in the summer warmth, i wouldnt be so sure as we have no idea how the virus will get on) if some of the squad have it then self isolation for two weeks means that whoever doesn't have it will be clear by the end of march and anyone who has - depends how bad their 'flu' is. most will not suffer badly at their age and fitness levels. 1
Hammo Posted 12 March 2020 Posted 12 March 2020 This on top of all the coronavirus sh!t Life’s a bitch. But it carries on.
Saigon Fox Posted 12 March 2020 Posted 12 March 2020 Let's hope it's a partial tear, not a full one. That's crap as I know only too well.

All true, I'm just a pessimist.

He would also miss the Euros, although I don't think they will go ahead as it stands. Get well soon Riccy P, you are our fantastic fox! Honestly feel gutted for him. Club aside he was due a big payraise. Good luck with that now. The hardest part of football for me to watch is the players (all) who give everything every time they step on the field only to have something like this happen. I hope he can make it back to full strength for him. He deserves it. The guy has a heart of fire. I will miss his energy dearly.
iamafox Posted 12 March 2020 Posted 12 March 2020 So typical that this happens as well as the coronavirus on the back of an impressive win on Monday

I did see his knee twist in the challenge against Villa, and I thought oh crap at the time, but miraculously he carried on. So I thought phew that could have been a disaster. It turned out to be that. Let’s end of season now.
StanSP Posted 12 March 2020 Posted 12 March 2020 This has devastated me more than the coronavirus news going through the squad. Well, 3 players showing symptoms anyway. I just don't see how we recover from this setback and finish the season strongly

Popular Post HighPeakFox Posted 12 March 2020 Popular Post Posted 12 March 2020 Use the difficulty, if more games are played. Get JJ in and everyone give support to Chilwell. If you don't know what the word 'support' means, pipe down with the moaning. 6 1

I hope he can make it back to full strength for him. He deserves it. The guy has a heart of fire. I will miss his energy dearly. He probably will still get the pay rise. His value to the team is there for all to see, and all fans know how good he is. Bizarrely it might actually help Leicester because he won't leave next season now, and I could possibly see him stay a season after that too, as he won't be at 100% fitness wise. Hope he gets well soon though regardless of if he stayed or not, he's a great person and player and I wish him nothing but the best. Very likable person!
Corky Posted 12 March 2020 Posted 12 March 2020 Our three key players all with injury-affected seasons now. A huge blow.

Popular Post Beechey Posted 12 March 2020 Popular Post Posted 12 March 2020 The silver lining is that this makes it more or less impossible that he'll be sold in the summer... 4 1

I was thinking the same thing - and his absence from the Eruros takes him out of the shop window this summer. I hope he makes a rapid and full recovery - he's been a wonderful asset to the club and a joy to watch. An inspired signing. 1

Crossed my mind too. 4-6 month recovery would put him at July/August/September return; even if he recovers early we should just lie about it until the window's closed.
Crazy Kop Corner Posted 12 March 2020 Posted 12 March 2020 Bloody gutted for the lad - Hope he comes back the same player
PaulW Posted 12 March 2020 Posted 12 March 2020 (edited) Grim news......but the signing of JJ looks even more inspired now. Plus time now for Youri to step up to the mark (for Mddison). Not many teams would replacements of that quality. Edited 12 March 2020 by PaulW
