Maddison injury update?

[CrispinLA in Texas]

Now I think we should of got Christian Erickson on loan till end of the season

[Guest Chocolate Teapot]

The good news is that he doesn't need an op. Feels like weeks rather than months to me.

BR "We don't believe he needs more surgery. It's irritable. We went to London yesterday with Bryan our club doctor to get an opinion, and he's getting another opinion in today. We'll then formulate a plan for his recovery."

 

Sound like they are just making sure he doesn't need surgery and maybe just need some time out to let it settle.

That’s not confirmed

If Under not trusted yet with the defensive side of things on the wing might be perfect for him to replace Madders & let him roam, we can then keep the Ricardo/Timmy combo or have young VDC in with 1 of the them.
I think we need to go all out & not the safe Amartey option at RCB, leave that once we are up & cruising (hopefully)

Would mean we don't have any attacking intent on the bench mind with Nacho suspended & Perez on the sick

Registration window has been and gone. 

Free agents can be added to the Premier League squad at any time, provided there is spare room. 2 spare slots for us.

How is Praet? Been a while since his injury, how is he getting on? Could do with him back.

I'd imagine he's at least 4-6 weeks away from being fit.

[North Leeds Fox]

Time for iheanacho, under and perez when fit to step up. Really going to miss his goals and general play but we have been very good at dealing with these injuries this season and another chance for a player to step up. Personally i would use tomorrow as a chance for under to have a go centrally.

Well apart from the manager saying they don't believe he needs one yeah, what do you want? A written note from the doctor? They'll have spoken to the specialist about it.

Now this sucks camel balls.

Had heard he was progressing well but it'll be late March / early April best case.

[Steve_Guppy_Left_Foot]

Every time Tielemans goes in for a tackle I'm going to hide behind the settee, if he gets crocked now then we're without a paddle. Stretched so thin we can't afford more injuries, and with so many games in such a short space of time we're bound to get a few. Scary stuff. 

[Aleksz]

Had heard it wasn't good news again but this sounds a lot more reassuring. Hopefully not another Brendan injury bluff.

[Pliskin]

Youri could probably play in that role..... it means we may see more of the back 5? Or potentially a 4-3-3? Will be interesting to see what he does. I'm not convinced Madders has been fit this season, He started slowly and looked slightly off it, admittedly he has picked up recently, but I still think he has been slightly under 100% for most of the season. 

[AKCJ]

Can see us going 3-4-3 again.

 

Kasper

Amartey Evans Soyuncu

Ricardo Ndidi Tielemans Castagne

Under Vardy Barnes

Bit extreme!

[Tuna]

Disappointing but I reckon we should have enough to cope, it is a bit of an opportunity for Under to show what he can do if he's selected.

[coolhandfox]

Bigger blow last year, the form of Barnes lessen it.

Brendan says he was fine post match just precautionary... So I’m fully expecting him to be injured for 2 months.

Literally every ****ing time

I think it could be the perfect opportunity for Under, less defensive then responsibility playing on the right.

I think we have options at 10, Under, Nacho, Perez when fit.

 

Important for Vardy to find he's shooting boots now, as Maddison and Barnes were covering for his lack of goals.

 

If me its time for Nacho to show what he's got, he looks a lot better when he plays with Vardy.

 

We have been playing a 4-4-2 at times during games.

Barely

Have I just read someone suggest we play Iheanacho as a number 10? Please tell me I havent

Hes suspended 

[Les-TA-Jon]

Even if he's only out for a short period, at the minute that's like 4-6 games!
