Feels like he could be out a while. Maybe we'll see Elliott.

Shame as he has done well last 6 weeks with his cameos.

Just simply not available enough to make a consistent contribution.

Done really well of late, shame he’s injured.

It was only a two year deal he signed, wasn't it? Think this might have been his last chance to get going and stake a claim for starts. Keeps breaking down.

Option for another year (in the clubs favour) this summer, I think but otherwise his deal expires at the end of the season.

Doubt it was ever the intention for him to be a starter when all fit.

Always an active squad intention

It's OK, he's with the AA.

I think he still harboured hopes of England.

I think he has talent and add something to the squad even if it’s just depth. He’s not always brilliant but usually reliable and has an eye for goal. Unless we have plans to use the likes of Elliot, I’d keep Ross at the club for another year.

This injury could mean a chance for George Hemmings to be on the bench, a seriously good young midfielder.

I watched the incident back last night. A strange one, hardly any impact at all with the Wolves player. He was clutching his knee and limped off.
Hopefully it's just a minor twist.

Expected to be out for 8-12 weeks with a grade 2 knee sprain. https://x.com/J_Tanswell/status/1995857998418530651

FFS, I like Barkley, he's had impact when he's come on.

12 weeks puts his Europa League place back in jeopardy. You'd imagine Mings will come back in for him when the squad is announced again in February.
