He's injured for 8-10 weeks apparently.

I thought he had a foot injury? I don't mean to enter a piece of H&V folklore to rival that most famous question, to which the answer was because Fabregas had knobbled him and he was off the pitch receiving treatment, but is Hause injured?

[sirlordbaltimore]

but is Hause injured?

He's training so he can't be that injured

[SoccerHQ]

Will be lacking match fitness for sure. Played very few games in last 18 months so I'd be pleasantly surprised if he's up to speed when he does play.

Smith said he looked "bright" in training but was obviously lacking match-fitness.

Smith has said we've watched videos of the Man City performance against Liverpool, with the effort they put in off the ball and how we are trying to replicate that.

[sid1964]

Can we have the Man City players for the Wigan game then?

Well that rules out Glenn and Conor for selection.

In fact, it probably leaves a midfield of just McGinn
