Re Solly, De Zerbi said that he’s not running yet and so it’s probable he won’t be ready to start pre season training at the same time as the main squad. Sounds a timing issue to me rather than anything more serious, albeit I’m sure that they are being very cautious with him due to the previous...
I expect he’s been ‘coping’ with this injury for a while. Probably the reason for his drop off in form.
A fully fit and raring to go Pervis will be a massive boost for next season.
Pervis looks like he has more than a calf muscle injury from that photo.
It looks like he’s had an ankle injury which he’s played through for a while. An operation and long recuperation ready for next season.
Maybe explains his dip in form this season.
He’ll be disappointed as he’ll miss...
It appears that we are playing the rest of the season with a safety first stance regarding injuries.
Get everyone fit for 2024/25, bring in another midfielder and winger ( Nicolas Gonzalez) and off we go next season with a strong squad.
De Zerbi saying that Goodnight, Mitoma and Gilmour were all not able to play 90 minutes due to physical condition and Veltman out for personal reasons.
As Mitoma missed the Japan games I’d think it would be sensible to give him another weeks rest to get ready for the next game. Hopefully it’s nothing worse than a minor injury that needs some rest.
Another chance for Adingra to play on the left, which is his preferred side.
The big one for me...
I just couldn’t see what the issue was with Estupinan. He seemed virtually static from the moment he came on and then didn’t track back. Didn’t seem to be his hamstring. He was holding his calf but no obvious effort from him at all. Surely he would have been deemed fit to have played.
Anyone...
