FF out for 6 -8 weeks

[darra]

Seem to remember Michael Owen having a lot of hamstring injuries and him losing a lot of his pace. His career didn't last too long after the last one again iirc. Hopefully, history isn't repeating itself.

He's done naf all this season so we are hardly gonna miss him. Most of the time he's been out injured anyway. No, the saddest part of this again is the chairman holding out for more cash than he was worth. His value now has to be practically zero due to his high wages and crock status.

Is this the same hamstring that kept him out prior to the international break?

At this point, the idea of getting more than £10m for FF is utterly delusional.

 

 

The thought of getting more than 5 mill is positively fruit cake material.

I think it's the same hammy thats decided it wants a pay rise, change of scenery or Christmas with the family.

There’s a great interview with him about this out there.

 

He admitted that he just stopped making the runs as he knew his hamstring would go.

 

He had to change his game and just rely on his goal scoring instincts. He couldn’t make goals on his own anymore

Will make a recovery in time to be sold on the cheap in January, 18 months to the day we turned down £16m because we wanted £18m - he has done so much since 10 games about 5 goals the rest of the time injured or not being picked.

 

Presumably this means we will start with the prolific Nuihu up front tomorrow. 

 

Who offered £16m  your full of it.

FF was awesome in his first season with us, a game changer in every sense a player the opposition feared and who with one sublime piece of skill win us a game.

 

We then had Norwichgate and apart from a little purple patch at the end of last season he's been a shadow of the player we know.

 

We were never offered some of the sums quoted on here and unless his injury situation improves we'll be lucky to get what we paid for him.

Another pointless crock . Get him off the wage bill as soon as possible

I agree

If Forestieri were going to amount to anything, he would have by this time, in any League in any Nation...he's almost 30 years old, about the age when most "big time" players are thinking about retirement.  I say pair him up with Rhodes, and offer a "buy one, get one free" deal, 1 million pounds sterling...but we'd take 500,000.

 

This is what a re-build looks like, and re-builds cost, both on the field in terms of wins and losses, and in the boardroom in terms of "legal stuff."  

 

Anyway, I'm not too bothered about the presence or absence of Forestieri, because either way, he makes no impact.

Is it this one?

Bloody hell that kit was amazing, I think it's one of the only things Chansiri has gotten right whilst he has been here.
