Its a good job we weren't planning on keeping clean sheets this season anyway. How bloody frustrating for all concerned. I feel really gutted for the guy too.

From the OS

Following clinical examination and the results of an MRI scan, the Club can confirm that Jores Okore sustained a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament injury in his right knee in the game against Newcastle on Saturday.

Jores will undergo surgery in due course and he could be sidelined for a period of up to nine months.

Has any club ever had a run of injuries like we have the last 3 or 4 years?

ACL reconstruction, what a pisser. Good Luck Jores

[N'Zimidy]

So so unlucky. Our defence is back to being completely pish this season then.

[Tuscans]

Gutted!! What is it with us and Danish defenders.

Gutted!! What is it with us and Danish defenders.

True, and their knees.

With Baker being as injury prone as he is as well, it'll be interesting to see what Lambert does. Not sure if there are any out of contract defenders available but it might mean a step up for Donacien to the bench at some point.

I liked what I saw of DonkeyKong in the pre-season games.

I hope the injury doesn't seee him lose his pace.

Fear not, PL will probably buy a forward in January to replace him.

Fear not, PL will probably buy a forward in January to replace him.

Or another goalkeeper.

Fair play to him for walking off the pitch with that injury, Good Luck Jores.
