When did he pick up the injury anyways? In the Birmingham game according to Monk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthernOwl Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 He'll be a big miss but it does feel as though he struggles to stay fit consistently. It would be nice if we learnt our lessons and stopped bringing in players who are injured all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can live with that, IF he can protect the defence and give it to those who can play . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiJ Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Weird how lightweight Joey is. The guy seems pretty well built and yet often gets physically outdone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gurujuan Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 What is it with us and injuries, it was the same under Carlos and Jos, is it because we always buy older players? He’ll be a big miss, as this was the run of six games where we were looking at a minimum of 4 wins. So 4 from five games now. Need Brown to be fit for this one now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just started to impress me then in typical Wednesday fashion goes and gets injured. Who will step in to his boots? I will be happy at three. He hyperextended his knee and anything could have gone. Exactly the same as Fletcher last season so three games will be a bonus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Scarlett Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 It makes you wonder what exactly they do in training. Far too many of our players are getting injured for it just to be bad luck. Do they lack stamina, resilience and core strength. Do they do stretching exercises or fail to warm down and as soon as training is over, jump in their cars and off home and then wonder why they tweak something in the next competitive match. This needs looking into ASAP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DesWalker Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Shame Liam Shaw is also out injured as Monk may have given him an opportunity in that holding role, despite preferring to play him at the back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Monk had said that he'd set a target of being out of negative points by the end of this week (but seemed realistic about our chances of achieving this), but has he or someone else come out and suggested they're targeting a minimum of 4 wins from these six games? If we pull that off, then we'll be showing top-two form, so it's certainly an ambitious target to set! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beholder Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 For a long time I've noticed we lose our best performing player to injury. It's gone back years and makes me believe we have some kind of curse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DobbinTheDonkey Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 A shame we never tried Palmer there in cup games to see if he can do the role. With a decent communicator behind him he might have been able to. Alas it's far too important of a match to start improvising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
archieswfc Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 1 hour ago, oldishowl said: I agree he offers nothing going forward but also he is lightweight defensively. He’s ok at tackling and interceptions but gets outmuscled, offers nothing in the air and adds nothing on set pieces in either box. I would rather play an extra defender in there. I'm with you on this. I'm still not sure what Joey brings to us. He's a tidy enough footballer but he's got no attributes to affect a game. Too soft to be defensive and not good enough to be attacking. It's as if he's making up the numbers most of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stocksyuto Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Ffs are we only going to get 2 or 3 games out of him now before injury . Defo need another CM to cover Hunt isnt the answer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
