We need to talk about Jonny Evans

I've a horrible feeling he's pretty much done.

Don't. Even before tonight we are desperate for him.

 

He's the calm head, the reader of the game, the instructor to the younger lads around him.

 

A vital part of the spine of our team.

I have a sinking feeling that we will be elated when he returns in a few weeks only for him to pull up again after about 10 minutes 

Me too. Reading posts this morning I think we need 2 in.

Just unavailable Saturday. Hope he’s not the new Elvis Hammond (ankle)

Problem is that if Brendan says Evans is out for three months, then any CB we try to buy goes up in price by £10m.

Smart thing is to play it cool and say we've got excellent cover.....

Is there not even any time scale on this? I havn't seen anything?


I don’t think Brendan has ever put a specific timescale on it.

 

As others said, I could be they don’t want to push up the price of a new CB. 
 

Or it might just be that they honestly don’t know themselves yet, and don’t want to get people’s hopes up.

 

For me though that’s part of the problem - the nature of the issue means even when he’s “back” we’ll be constantly wondering whether he will pull up in the middle of a game.

They're not going to be sat there unaware of what condition Evans is in, and whether he'll ever get back to the top. Yes it might be a bit longer than September but it won't be that much longer.

 

As others have said, if it was on a Huth-level debilitating they'd have already recruited at centre-back.

I doubt they even know that September is going to be accurate. He could well be done.

As someone who has suffered from plantar fasciitis it one of those things that can just disappear as easy as it came.

 

I wouldn't write him off just yet.
