Injury watch 2022/23

[morganb]

With pre-season starting next week, I thought I'd get this thread warmed up too.

I'm not sure of the current state of play with injuries carried over from last season -

Moore was injured during his time at Stoke but unsure if he has now recovered.

Yiadom played for Ghana recently so must be over his injury.

Please post anything you know below...

Thinking that currently only Rinomhota might still be an injury worry though wasn’t Meite sidelined again at the end of the season or was that just rest so he’d be raring to go for preseason?

He better be raring to go ‘cos he’s going to have to play at least three positions at the moment

Actually, that’s a thought. If we could find a couple of Ngolo Kante’s that would solve six positions

A squad of Ady Williams, Andy Hughes and Bryn would put us at risk of exceeding our 25 man squad limit….

And the injury curse is starting early yet again, this time Liam Moore has a knee injury and will miss the first months of the season. So not only is that one defensive option down but also means he’s unlikely to move on in this window.

Need to sell Puscas and pay more off

Paying off Moore wouldn’t help financially though. If we are paying him anyway we may as well have him as an option.
Although my prediction is he will have a series of minor injuries that prove very difficult to resolve and last through until January when he gets loaned out to a US. Club.

What bad news. It’s not his fault that he gets the salary he gets but this could scupper some of our recruitment plans. Fair enough if he’s fit and Ince wants to utilise him but if he’s out for months and being paid big bucks that’s a really tough break for us.

Yep, "knee injury".....

Is this the same as his annual FA Cup 3rd round injury?

I don't think we may as well have him as an option. He's not very good and at this point the club is toxic to him and he is toxic to the club.

Hey guys, you know none of you could get a decent pay rise from us and we negotiated hard on your salary? And you know you've been performing well?

Here's a guy we don't want who hasn’t performed well for a couple of years and is paid three times your salary. Hope you get on well!

Months makes it sound pretty serious. Best for all if he leaves but don't wish a bad injury on the bloke. We gave him the contract after all.

We could pay him off I.e. come to a deal where we pay him 50% of his last year and leave him free to get a deal wherever and whenever he is fit i.e. if he is fit in October he can move then rather than have to wait until Jan but also allow him to rehab at Bearwood til then.

Of course it's his oxf*rd fault. He and his agents negotiated for it, getting it by trying to force a transfer. And he's perfectly capable of agreeing a pay cut. Yes Dai shouldn’t have agreed it, it takes two to tango and they should both oxf*rd off.

LOL @ thinking Liam Moore isn't going to rinse us dry until the bitter end.

[blythspartan]

I know probably a dumb ass question but do clubs have any form of insurance for this type of scenario? I guess we’ll be lumbered with paying his salary until the bitter end. I seem to remember this happening with the much loved Jason Roberts.

There is a grown up way as well though…..

He has a right to demand what he wants. We offered him the deal, not the other way around. Dai offered him the contract, we were in control, not the player.

Good lord....

[Coppells Lost Coat]

Moore bashing has started early this year.

[YorkshireRoyal99]

Good lord....

What? Did he hold a gun to his head and say agree to my demands?

[paultheroyal]

Bad news about Moore. But get him fit - back in September - it will be like a new signing.
