Boubacar Kamara - out for the season

Any chance of ending the quotathon?

I once did my ACL in B&Q shopping for MDF.

Probably employed by Mr Emery as his personal shopper.

How do you know they are not being asked to tackle in a certain way? I know someone who did their ACL by just getting their studs caught its not that simple to say its just how the kneels positioned.

I didn’t see the incident that led to Kamara’s injury yesterday, and my recollection is that Buendia’s injury happened in training, so I don’t think we know exactly how that happened. However, Mings’s injury happened completely innocuously, and didn’t have anything to do with tackling in a certain way, or anything else that could be coached.

Anyway, I think the general consensus is that your theory probably is a conspiracy theory.

He simply slips while turning to chase an opponent....no tackling involved.
You can see him come off the pitch limping a little, then he stops at the side and obviously thinks "F**k me, that hurts"... but in French.

Our luck is unrelentingly dreadful. Yes, it is worse than ANY other prem club. THREE long-term knee injuries.

Remember Ron Concrete Vlaar?  Who turned into Ron Plywood Vaar following his arrival in B6.

Unless Tim surprises us all, including Emery, Kamara was one of a few players maybe Watkins, Luiz and McGinn where we don't really have a replacement. We didn't really have a replacement for Ramsey either in his role, fingers crossed he kicks on for the rest of the season.

Moving McGinn back there is the likely move but that kills us elsewhere. If we manage to get top 5 with our injury list it will have been some achievement.

Our injuries this season.  Poor Tottenham.

Buendia (Season)
❌Mings (Season)
❌Kamara (Rest of season)
🩹Moreno (Several months)
🩹Ramsey (In/Out)
🩹Torres (1+ month)
🩹Digne (1+ month)
🩹Duran (1+/- month)
❓Konsa (TBD)

Tielemans is missing off the above list - a month was it.

Were you being managed by Unai Emery at the time by any chance?

Being demanding and connecting with the store assistants

Heard it on the radio on the way home.  At a time when.we needed a bit of a lift, we're dealt another massive kick in the knackers instead.  Not only out for the rest of this season, but for a significant portion of the next one as well I would have thought.

Got to go with young Tim for the next three games now, as McGinn or Tielemans will just weaken us in a couple of areas.  Unfortunately, think we will see one of those two used there though.

Doubt Emery will be starring irogbunam , it will be Tielemans in and a reshuffle with McGinn going deeper. Emery doesn't really play the youngsters other than fleetingly

Yes. It was all his fault.

[LeonW]

Can we recall Dendoncker? I’d take the hit and do it if we can.

UE should give Iroegbunam a chance. Tim got a full season on loan at QPR in a tough division, so he should have learned from that experience.
