Nucasol Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 As long as he’s alright for the weekend. Two weeks ago I thought we could get something at Anfield but the current state of the walking wounded means focusing on more winnable games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest HTT II Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 We’ve got to accept we are going to get injuries to players, key players and not so key players and while we don’t exactly have the squad to quite deal with that, we do have a manager and character to minimise such setbacks.

Geordie Boyo Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 (edited) You forget to remind yourself just how thin and shite the squad was just a few months back. Looks like possibly one or two still to come, fingers crossed. Players below here for the long run and we know all do a job. Not bad going, but as mentioned, injuries will happen. Never thought we’d be at a stage where we’re not too far off strengthening our squad let along our starting 11.

Wilson Isak Saint-maximum Fraser Joelinton Guimaraes Shelvey Almiron Target Botman Burn Schar Trippier Krafth Pope Dubvraka I'd add Lewis to that in the sense I don't mind when I see his name in the starting XI - I know he is decent enough and young enough to still contribute. I'd also now add Anderson and Willock. Lascelles is 'ok' too, for now. That's 21 out of the 25 man squad. So we're four short of having quality depth. One high quality ST, one RW, one CM and one GK would change the game for us and give us the strength in depth to achieve our goals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That games cost us heavy and we may need to buy a rb now as trippier is clearly playing through injury at the moment. Injuries are very very bad for us at the moment and that game alone injured krafth, Bruno and trippier. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

One high quality ST, one RW, one CM and one GK would change the game for us and give us the strength in depth to achieve our goals. Would love to see Lewis step-up his game as it looked as though he had just before he got injured. Lascelles, will be in there for now, but I don’t think he’s good enough in the long run. I’d actually prefer to see Fernandez there and I know he’s had injury problems, but I’m not sure if Howe rates him as good. Hopefully Anderson does come on well being a local lad, as the two Longstaff brothers have been disappointing, showing what they can do on their day, but then just not being consistent or good enough now. Really pleased with Almiron, but with Shelvey out injured and Bruno, Howe could bring someone else in there as we’ve got both Fraser and Murphy who can cover the flanks. I don’t think Murphy will be here in the long-run, but provides a bit of cover like Lascelles does at the back. if Dubravka does go we’ll definitely need someone else in of similar quality as back-up for Pope.

Dr Jinx Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 Don’t think Bruno’s will be as serious as we think. Liverpool echo had some different quotes. “Guimaraes was scheduled to be involved for the clash against Wolves, but was withdrawn shortly before kick-off due to an injury. Howe later confirmed that the midfielder won’t be fit in time to face Liverpool. “He has a slight niggle and I don’t think it’s anything serious,” Howe told The Chronicle . “We hope he won’t miss too much. Liverpool might be too soon.” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
