marshy Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 According to Jos. Ankle injury. Unsure if he'll be fit for weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
areNOTwhatTHEYseem Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 It was a particularly nasty tackle on him by a player who should have already been booked in the first half for a foul on Matias. Perhaps if the ref had given a yellow for the first foul, van Aken wouldn't have suffered the second. It's really bad luck for him, just as he's returning from injury. Hopefully it's not too bad. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brommers Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 Was a shocking challenge, seen players sent off for less. Only surprised ref didn't give them the free kick! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philb125 Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 Terrible challenge on him to cause injury! Shocked it’s his ankle not his knee. He was growing into match too as were many. Hope he’s not out too long as I’m sure regular footy will do him wonders! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradowl Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 Doubt he would have been playing Sunday anyway, might have made bench. I'd put Nielsen ahead of him and I'm not totally convinced with him against a better side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southie_Owl Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 I thought some of the Sunderland tackles were awful and should have had more yellows/red than they did. If that had been Wednesday kicking players over the park the commentators would have been very critical Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanye West Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 Some very late challenges by them tonight, him who took Van Aken out was lucky to not get sent off. Thought he had a steady game too, be a shame if it’s a bad injury. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ballmeist Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 Nielsen is no way near ready to play first team football at championship level. He’d get torn apart. Anyone who thinks he is, is deluded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldishowl Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 Their player should have already been on a yellow Awful challenge Then started laughing about it with team mates Ref was the usual incompetent who thought he was god’s gift We need a couple of hard cases so this type of player is a bit more wary of kicking us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think because we have a few half decent prospects , folk think we have world beaters I’m the making. Gopefully the lad will grow into a championship defender including time, for me he’s doing alright Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
