I’ve not watched them recently. But I remember when the story broke. Someone clipped up all his tackles and antics from the games in question where he got the yellow cards. Dodgy as fuck. I suppose if they have that and a paper trail. Possibly even any communications between parties. Then he’s fucked.

Going to need 2 CB’s in the summer for sure then. A starting RCB and a capable backup type who will likely see a lot of action

He must have some mad pain threshold or stability or something. Sounds like it’s the other knee. But the same as last season. He injured it and managed to play on before needing surgery in the end. Just a shame his knees aren’t very strong.

Not seen a goalkeeping performance like this since Tim Krul away at Spurs. Flip the keepers round and it’d be 4-0 to PSG. Should be saving that.

Fucking hope not….

Alisson is ridiculous. Kept this from being 3-0. That and the ridiculous offside.

Konate massively got away with one there. Jammy fuckers.

VAR and the way offside is now enforced. What a great addition to the game. No wonder modern football is getting worse. Ruling out goals like that FFS.

Yeah. They’re all linked…..

All this conflicting information. There’s still hope.

Yeah. It was always a risk. But for that sort of money and the PURE PROFIT. One that was worth taking. Love all this spreadsheet wankery, me. Best part of the modern game.

I doubt it is. Seems like quite a few on here are now saying the same. Of course the Lloyd Kelly deal was too good to turn down. But the gamble hasn’t worked by the sounds of it.

The appeal is almost always done and dusted for a red card before the next game, no? Why would they take over a week until after West Ham or after the final to review it? We didn’t appeal as there would have been no chance of it being overturned. I’m sure the club would have even sought some advice. Possibly from ex-refs and explored all avenues. Similar to what Forest were doing with Clattenburg.

Still thinking about the bad news

Yes. I have followed us, thanks. He is coy and loves a bit of smoke and mirrors. But him actually stating no injury and that Botman has trained is fairly telling. It’s not his usual riddles and it would be absolutely mental if he was saying stuff like that. For them then to be ruled out for weeks/months like you’ve alluded to there. Unless they’ve both genuinely got crocked yesterday after light training. Which seems highly doubtful to me.

Every player. Hilarious.

So Isak came off with tightness that wasn’t an injury. But now he’s out of the final. Botman trained and was close to playing against Brighton. But now his knee has fallen off and he’s done for the season. Forgive me if I’m skeptical. I’d rather wait for something a bit more concrete than Twitter ITK’s.

C. Next.

So it’s the knee he had operated on then? I’m going to bed. This all sounds like BS to me

Well I know from experience you can end up with bits of bone in your knee when you do a ligament such as your ACL as it can pull some bone away with it when it ruptures. Hoping this is some kind of Twitter ITK stuff, as in it is utter nonsense. Or that you’re on the wind up. Otherwise we are absolutely fucked at CB and light at LB with Hall missing and all.

Errr. No. Not really So this bone that fell off his knee is this his bad knee or his good one? Is it bone avulsion caused by a ligament or tendon coming away? What sort of surgery? Are they putting ‘a few metal rods in’ or not? It’s all very specifically vague.

Not surprised. Didn’t stand a chance.

Eh? He’s a forward player in a better team, that dominate the ball and create more chances than us. Plus the likes of Odegaard who finds space in a phone box with his passing. Yet his numbers in the last couple of seasons aren’t any better than Gordon’s, are they? That’s with Gordon having a bit of an off-season in comparison to last year. I’m not even a massive Gordon fan, TBH. I don’t know what it is about his game that annoys me. But he can be a bit wasteful with his decision making. That said. I’m just absolutely not having Martinelli or Trossard ahead of him, though. Especially when the former is just as guilty of it as Gordon, if not worse.

Arise Sir Krafu.
