eardun Posted August 15, 2019 Report Share Posted August 15, 2019 Assuming he picked up the injury v QPR rather than in training afterwards, Wright’s injury may partly explain why he struggled on Tuesday. In addition he probably felt obliged to step up to take a penalty (due to being skipper and more experienced than some of the others who weren’t volunteering) but if he was injured then he really shouldn’t have. He has often been criticised for his performances when, in fact, he was playing while injured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCFC11 Posted August 15, 2019 Report Share Posted August 15, 2019 Here’s a few OOC..... Adil Rami Ashley Williams Martin Caceres Younes Kaboul Yohann Djourou Joel Lynch James Collins Marc Wilson Jonas Olsson A few of them getting on abit but surely worth getting atleast 1 of them in on a short term deal as cover.

Quite the opposite in fact. I see these coming games as real opportunity for what essentially a new squad to gel as a team. It feels really exciting to me and I can hardly wait for QPR on Saturday. The only concern is how thin the CB cover is now with Wright being injured. These happen in football and it leaves Kalas, Baker and TM as the only options. That said City are looking abroad for available loans.......... Thanks for your update Robbored.........R we still able to loan from abroad? And if so do u know when that window of opportunity slams shut? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's frightening that a club of our stature can get in this mess. We all know Wright is made of glass! Unbelievable situation to be in. Mr Positive? But you are 100% right, hate having a go at the club, and these injuries were not planned, but we should have had the foresight in making sure we had some sort of replacement in for AW, and to let Vyner go on loan Wow!! very unprofessional, we were obsessed in other areas and forgot the defensive needs. This will be a real test now, rather LJ concentrate on bringing in some cover than entertaining a few older Reds..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And looked a bloody good one in the two games he played there. Problem with Pisano is would he really want to uproot his family again? Enroll his daughter in school in the UK once again.. as a player it potentially could work, but there's the other things in his life to think about too.

Loans were obviously not mentioned. He did point out that even some OOC players may be beyond our budget, and wages had to be considered in keeping with who we already have.

Enroll his daughter in school in the UK once again.. as a player it potentially could work, but there's the other things in his life to think about too. Players don’t always move their home / family when they change clubs. You sometimes have a player playing for a club in the south with the family home in the north and vice versa. It’s not ideal, but it happens. Italy is obviously farther away but the same principle could apply, with Pisano flying home occasionally. Pay him £12k - £15k for 6 months and he’ll get £300k - £400k, which might make the inconvenience look attractive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
