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...

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. He’ll just grow another one! More like: We’ll just rebuild him. Better….Stronger….Faster!

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...
huss9 Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 edwards https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2023/08/29/newcastle-united-eddie-howe-centre-back-gamble-botman-schar/ "Schar and Botman avoided any long-term injuries last season but that was as much down to luck as anything else. 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."

Pilko Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Not worth listening to anything Baldwards puts out, at best it'll be a guess. Since Bruce went he's the definition of a broken clock when he is occasionally right. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Echo everyone's desperation that there's no serious issues. One of the many heartbreaking aspects from the weekend was that he was having an absolutely brilliant game until the end. Honestly thought it might have been his best for us.

Ben Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 We'll see what the team looks like with Burn at Center back, fuck knows what will happen if Schar misses games as well, could we fit another player in the 25 men premier league and champions league squads ?
