Shadow Puppets Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 Aye, Hope is correct on that one. I can back that up, direct from the horses mouth ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
magvicar Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 News just in. Sven said he's had to lose the foot but he's been assured by doctors that it will eventually grow back in a few weeks, In the mean time he's feeling a bit stumped. I think Dan Burn will step up and Lewis Hall may take the left back role. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lish007 Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Harsh on Targett if Hall comes straight in. I doubt he would do that, I'd be happy to see Targett get a run out, I think we've all forgotten that it's nice to have a LB that can get up and down the pitch and off up some attacking threat. Bring Hall on for 20 mins for a taste as I'm assuming Targett's fitness isn't up to 90 mins yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiLvOR Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 That last ditch block/tackle he made on the weekend was sheer class. Absolutely love the bloke, hopefully he's back soon as. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 According to the PotT, post-match he was walking timidly following the game, but he wasn't wearing any strapping and didn't require crutches. Hopefully just an impact injury. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conjo Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Would hate to see him away for a long period of time, but Burn is more than capable of stepping in for him in the meantime. Actually thought Burn did better (granted it was for a very short time) at CB than Botman in pre-season. One small positive, for me at least, is that it forces our hand to play a left back at left back next game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think he'll be starting games for us for a little while. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed, Botman was taken off with an ankle injury against Liverpool which, although not serious, will almost certainly rule him out for a couple of weeks at least."
