| Injuries...... 12:47 - Aug 7 with 35763 views | Markofthegrove | Two days out from the season and a few question marks in the squad and the club refuse to give the spiv fans an update. So what do we know? Jimmy - Looks like a hip injury? Steve Cook - Hammy. Michi Frey – from all accounts, he looks like he is out for a while. JCS - Broken Heartstring. Anyone else? |  | | |  |

If we have hardly any injuries this season, i think there is reasonable quality in the squad and reasonable availability in quantity also, especially with many younger players sitting in wait for a call up. However ........ Usual suspects and some already. Mr Williams please can you use your magic sponge. The magic sponge did the trick in the 70s and 80s. Lets add it into the databases !!! |  |

Bad luck? Not bad luck at all, the injury picture at the club is actually very positive. The overall injury levels are trending below the historical average and below the league average - the U13s haven't suffered a single soft tissue injury in pre-season. The ball retention team have been working synergistically with the medical department to ensure optimal performance this season. John De Souza has been methodically working on methods to refine the structures around Jude The Cat to ensure he continues to perform throughout the season and remains available. If you say we're struggling with injuries, the data shows you're actually wrong. Synergy. [Post edited 7 Aug 2025 14:18]

Pfft c'mon mate no one wants that kind of mild optimism two days out from the start of the season. And Jude the Cat I think has the best injury record of anyone. [Post edited 7 Aug 2025 15:54]

Jude is currently suffering a bad reaction to some prescription worming tablets and not 100% for Saturday. I don’t usually play the ITK card but you can trust me on this one. |  | |  |

| Injuries...... on 07:55 - Aug 8 with 9619 views | BklynRanger | A few gaps but I think we should be fine with: - Field covering CB / CDM. If he can't do the job of two people we need to get rid asap - Larkeche in front of him as hybrid destroyer - Chair as target man - Possibly not our 'favourite players' at LB, RB, or a few other positions, but that is the way of the world kids, pull up a spreadsheet at any point between JFK and DXB and you'll see it too you mugs. |  | |  |

Dunne & Larkeche will be the full backs, Walsh No1, Morgan will start, Menbengue the other CB if Cook is unfit, Chair will be midfield with Field, Varane, Madsen, expect Smyth in there too, but if not Dembele or Puku or Vale. If fit he may throw in Burrell WALSH DUNNE - MORRISON - MENBENGUE - LARKECHE SMYTH - FIELD - VARANE - MADSEN - VALE/DEMBELE/PUKO BURRELL(??) or one of the midfielders. I, actually, find it quite unbelievable that the side is not stable for the starting game of the season....... [Post edited 8 Aug 2025 9:55]

I know that Morgan played centre half at Tottenham, but has he played in that position for us? |  | |  |

I meant Morrison, I will change, thanks. Morgan has been very average indeed in PSF, along with a few, he will be benched. [Post edited 8 Aug 2025 9:57]
