Kanye West Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Could tell it was going to be a long one, one of the unluckiest footballers I've ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalthamOwl Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Probably our best player when fit. Gutted. As much as i rate him i feel it was a big mistake to sign him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiJ Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 "It's a different problem to his old knee injuries. We wish him a speedy recovery." How many knees does this lad have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bazapeps Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 We desperately need to get someone in, coke semedo ET al aren't good enough if we want to achieve a top half finish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Lost Soul Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Great player and more importantly, the exact type of player we are missing in the middle of the park. Huge blow and I can't imagine how he copes with set back after set back. It is not a striker we need, it's a creative centre midfielder for me.

FlyingOwl Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 At least it's not the injury that flips him for a season. Gutted for him mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Only 2months ? I was expecting 6-12 months Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiJ Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 (edited) Out of the games I've seen this season, both in the flesh and via streams (thank you wigwiz), his performance against Derby was the stand out one. He absolutely bossed that, with a drive, intensity and quality that none of the other midfielders on our books can produce. Performances like that makes me understand entirely why we decided to snap him up when he became available...but we should have done so on a one year deal.

Guest Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 If it's a 2month lay off is it likely he's not torn anything ? Unrelated to his old knee injury so I'm sure the lad can come back fighting fit again around Xmas time hopefully Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcmigo Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 2 months I would have taken all day long when he limped off the park - lets hope that it is no longer. His impact on the team is huge - had he stayed fit all season it would have probably meant we would have finished top 6. Get well soon Hutch.

blueandwhitematt Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 I'm fairly certain stuff will be built into the contract that factors in injuries, hence the two-year deal not really being a problem financially (plus, if he hardly plays again this year, he strikes me as the honest type who wouldn't take a club for a free ride for another year - he'd walk back into a coaching job at Chelsea for one so there would be no need). Its been done to death in the other thread, but the deal was worth the risk. He's too good for us (or any other mid-Champ) team when fit, which I appreciate is the problem! Even with two months out, his re-introduction will hopefully be gentle from January into February. The aim for him and the medical team should be to get him fit for February to the end of the season. Don't worry about any time sooner. That's still a sizeable chunk of games he can contribute to. Good luck to the lad, he deserves some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodger Wylde Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Hope he gets fit again soon, but I hope he's on a, pay as you play contract! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest wilyfox Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 That's a better prognosis than I thought it might be, to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owlZfan84 Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Foookin MASSIVE plus this. I thought it was a career finisher. Get well soon lad, and see you ready and fit for the Christmas fixtures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trevdi9 Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 so sad for the lad haven't seen him play but have always read good reports on the fella so my conclusion is he will be missed in the team that's for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
