Think a lot of people are in denial. Okay it may not be 12 months, but 9 months probably wouldn't be far off to get him back to full fitness and ready to actually play at the standard he was at. 

I'm not sure it's denial as much as people understandably wanting some kind of authority for the statement.

 

I've treated it as an opinion rather than having any basis in fact. That said, it could be right. Either way, I personally am thinking of Wesley being out for the rest of the season. Anything sooner would be a bonus.

It's not doing any good to keep speculating.

Oh, I dunno. We could make the longest injury thread ever record! ;)

 

But, yes, speculation is pointless... but I figure we know that. Not that it stops anyone, myself included lol

Are you new to Leicester?

 

For years we had big Wes as club captain. Fofana is smaller and younger! 

Fofana is taller than Morgan tbf.

 

I always assumed "Little Wes" was a bit ironic.

I'm getting confused with calling him 'little wes'....I understand why but fofana  not a small dude

Short folk are often called lofty... while tall guys are called tiny

If we're going to give him a handle it should be Young Wes

Do we have any official confirmation of this? So far (with respect) we have one terse statement from one very new poster at 1am.

It’s a reliable one

I can only take your word on that - I have no evidence the the contrary. Respect that you probably have to be tight-lipped about it if so.

Apparently Rob Ullathorne and Matt Jones are still in the treatment room…..

I knew Rob Ullerthorne quite well when he was here and can't forget the time he angrily told me Martin O'Neil was getting a bit fed up with his recovery time and shouted "I've known people with aids get better quicker than you"

I’m sure we would have been thinking about a new contract in twelve months. Now we clearly can’t until he gets through pre season next summer and into the autumn.  such a shame for him - we will now see his mental strength come to the fore. I’m not aware he has ever suffered a bad injury in the past.  He seems the type to get through this though.

With all due respect 

it’s easy to say in hindsight, now the club are in a better position. It wasn’t a particularly great time to be watching though. 
6 defeats and one draw from New Years Day including a Defeat to Newport.

Players criticising the style of play, things were going one way.

The owners made yet another astute decision pulling the trigger when they did.

Crab football that couldn’t break low blocks down.

The games he generally won where those with less possession where the opponents were attacking.

 

 

I get it. 

Just think using this thread to have a go at a former manager after he wishes a former player well wishes is in poor taste.

Add him to the list of probable ITK's?

Can ITKs predict the future? Have all scans/ops even been done yet?

When I saw it I thought that was a whole season so wouldn't suprise.

 

I don't know how the ins and outs if insurance work however if he was out fir the season I imagine the club could claim back his wages for the year which may help with getting someone in.

 

Got to be tarkowski or vestegaard. Need an experienced head with pl experience, and then hope benkovic and Nelson kick on.

 

Poor wesley though. He'll be back stronger.

Westley Morgan = Big Wes

Wesley Fofana = Lil’ Wes

 

Eazeh.
 

It’s an endearing nickname for an endearing kid, he seems like he’s got a good heart. Hope he can keep his spirits up throughout his recovery.

I have no idea. Usually expect ITK's to have a bit more info than I on any given situation regarding the club. In this type of circumstance I would hope that someone wouldn't speculate based on rumours. Transfers are one thing injuries are another.

I also trust Mark to know a bit more about certain posters than the rest of us..

Not much a surprise after seeing his foot twisted all the way round like that. hopefully will be recovered and back in full training at the start of next pre season. Just listened to Radio Leicester and Rodgers said he wanted to stay here for his recovery to be with the lads rather than going back home.
