Popular Post Bert Posted 12 June 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 12 June 2023 After two serious and career threatening injuries, I’d be surprised if anyone took a risk on him. Imagine he will stay and if he gets back to the JJ we know, clubs will come in for him in the winter. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF (and it's a big IF) they can stay fit, it might work out well in our favour this year. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither did on their previous comebacks, but to be fair they were cut short by injury again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only way I can see Ricardo going is a return to an old club. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also means you can get JJ, and one of Thomas/VK into the team too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodgers has mass injuries everywhere talk of over training etc. maybe under another manager they won't face that issue 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both of them have since picked up innocuous knocks in matches that can’t be left at Rodgers door. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wasyls Pec Deck Posted 18 June 2023 Share Posted 18 June 2023 We can’t have ruined Justin surely? He’s still a youngish man. Ricky P maybe and he’s pushing 30. Hopefully Enzo having come from a world class operation will see the gaps in ours, including getting our top sports science and approach to injuries/rehab back. I can’t help but think Rodgers had his grubby little hands in there as well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gw_leics772 Posted 23 June 2023 Share Posted 23 June 2023 Read a few days ago (but could have been a month knowing my brain, reckon a couple of weeks max though)... that he could potentially be angling for a move. Meant to post at the time but I reckon he is one we could and should play hardball with. Similar to fofana but without the massive price tag, he hasn't yet earned that right imo, especially with how we have looked after him with contracts despite injuries etc. We are selling enough players and so don't particularly need his transfer fee. Probably bollocks anyway but those are my views and would be interested in other people's take. Also more likely to bounce straight back up with him than without him imo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely think we should take this approach with a few of them. But we've seen this season it doesn't matter how talented you are when you want away and don't have the effort. Footballers are absolutely disgusting in general. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerrrFox Posted 23 June 2023 Share Posted 23 June 2023 He’s another one who will be told he owes us a season to get promotion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SafewayFox Posted 24 June 2023 Share Posted 24 June 2023 Who would seriously put an offer in for him? He’s been injured more than had good spells at the club. I want him to do well and could use his athleticism if playing a back 3 but his time here (so far) for me would be “what if?” rather than he was quality (Ricky P).

Rigga Posted 24 June 2023 Share Posted 24 June 2023 Not sure about the over training theory that some have ? it’s the unfittest lcfc team that I have seen for many a year.. there’s a reason why we dont press.. because they wernt fit enough.. my theory is that’s where the injuries come in slso Praet was blowing out of his arse 10 mins into a ga e towards the end of the season .. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hackneyfox Posted 24 June 2023 Share Posted 24 June 2023 (edited) If he’s fully fit why was he at Seagrave when Enzo turned up? Aren’t all the players on their holidays at the moment? Edited 24 June 2023 by hackneyfox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do however need to clear your head, as to what transpired last season and approach the coming season with a fresh approach. Justin might just have been there to improve his fitness and game and it was an opportunity for Enzo to meet one of his new charges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
