  • Physio room is showing Reid will return in 2 weeks. I Would like to know where they get their facts from.
  • edited January 2019
    They base it on what the player, manager or club rep has said publicly.

    When I look at the site, it says 'expected back 29 January' (which was probably the original timescale set by the club) and gives a quote from this interview in October
    https://www.radionz.co.nz/news/sport/368912/winston-reid-remains-positive-as-he-looks-to-return-to-football which suggest all is on track (which is why they haven't got 'unknown return date' I suppose)

    Key quotes related to rehab/comeback:

    - Obviously, when you have an operation you never know how things are going to look on the other side, but it's going better than we thought so that's positive.
    -I'm doing gym work at the moment, rehabbing the quad and the leg and getting the bulk back
    - everything after the operation has gone really, really well, touch wood, and there has been no swelling.

    If the club at any point updates the prognosis, physioroom will change it on their site.
  • Balbuena out for 4-6 weeks according to a user on KUMB due to requiring a small ankle operation.
  • He's got small ankles! ;nonono

    Yeah that's what Ex said in his podcast
  • So our CB options are Diop, Ogbonna and Rice. Possibly Oxford if we don't sell him.

    If Rice is played there, we have no DM to speak of, which is a vital part of Pellegrini's formation.

    So I reckon we'll see a CB or DM bought in, on loan at the very least.
  • Are you giving credibility to that story about Reid , then?
  • I forgot all about Reid.

    But yeah, IMO, I don't think he'll play this season.
  • Ex says Fredericks & Hernandez are both available for Arsenal.

    Great so they get our injured players back as well ;weep
  • In Pelle's press conference just now he said no new injuries since last match, and everybody who was injured is still out. #nonews
  • So those out are out and them in are in except those who are out got ya
  • Cuz1
    I think that is out of order ..... ;wahoo

    Well, it was an operation on his knee, but other than that ...

  • So Chicharito and Fredericks not avail ..... ;weep
  • Cuz, that sounds like someone trying to explain cricket to an American ;biggrin

    MrsGrey from that link.
    Manuel Pellegrini revealed Samir Nasri could make his Premier League debut for the West Ham United on Saturday.

    Who says "the" West Ham United (other than the writer of course).
    ;hmm
  • Manu back soon ;pray

  • The first part is a translation, presumably from Spanish.

    I'm taking this to mean he's close to a return to training.
  • ;pray

    Lanzini is going to be a star in a Pelle team.
  • Lanzini & Nasri ;wahoo
  • Vorse just thinking about that makes me excited
  • Rice would be able to play the Fernandinho role, he'll most likely be doing so for real i the next 18 months when City come calling with 50M ;weep and ;run
  • ;fishslap
  • You know everyone's watching him with envious eyes... City are prime candidates. So that's both Greys that have given me a whack in recent days because of Decerz ;lol
  • But to soften the hurt, imagine how much Chelski are spewing. ;lol
  • We just need to buy Agero ;biggrin
  • We'd end up with an Austin Allegro ;lol

    We’re gonna have some side when all fit:

    Fabianski
    Zabaleta - Diop - Balbuena - Cresswell
    Rice - Lanzini
    Yarmolenko - Nasri - Anderson
    Hernandez

    Adrian, Ogbonna, Fredericks, Noble, Wilshere, Antonio, Carroll

    With Reid, Masuaku, Obiang, Sanchez, Snodgrass, Diangana, Perez not even in the 18! Plus I have left Arnie out for now.

    Not saying that 11 will be our best side as it is very attacking, but some good options there.
  • I think when all are fit it’ll be Lanzini vs Nasri for the AM spot in a 4-2-3-1, rather than both. Nasri gives us a great option, but if Manu comes back anything like the player he was before then he is the future, imo.
