GrahamC Posted January 30 Report Share Posted January 30 The overreaction to this news is mental. It’s like we are the only club to ever have a player out injured. Atkinson & Sykes are both on the way back, one of the others who is absent (Benarous) has only started 7 league games ever, I’d say the amount of players we are currently missing is probably around average for a Championship team. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
INCRED Posted January 30 Report Share Posted January 30 Quad strain is usually 4-6 week’s recovery Quad tear is 10-12 weeks recovery Bit of a disaster either way Can we send him back and get someone else in before the window closes? 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've just signed him on loan, and now he's injured after one game. I think there is an overreaction to the reaction!

So, probably the last we see of him. Hopefully, we had a clause to return. Anyhow, time for the squad minus Twine and any other first team squad additions to prove JL and Tins right. Top 6 here we come. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I predicted 10/11 of this side, (thought McCrorie would play) but am fully behind being sensible with him & can guess the reaction on here if he pulled up in the first half.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petehinton Posted January 30 Report Share Posted January 30 I can’t see anything other than a Cov win in all honesty. They’re just too good at home for me to be too optimistic. Will be watching O’Hare longingly though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvio Dante Posted January 30 Report Share Posted January 30 The thing with loan players (and remember we’ve had a loan physio previously) is that you naturally (a) have to tread carefully and (b) defer to the parents judgement of the injury. It’s one reason why I’m not a fan of loans overall - the time out of the team is always going to be a touch higher as on a 50/50 call you, out of deference to the parent club, err on the side of caution. There may be nothing wrong in that long term but it is a fact that the judgement is not that of your medical team alone. And city may think he’s fine but if Burnley have any doubt - he’s not playing. (NB - he is clearly injured, this is more to say any period out is likely to be longer than if he was contracted) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we had bought him he’d be a long term asset, not a short term play to make the play-offs. We’ll see if he can do it but he’ll struggle for the next few weeks!
