Diego Carlos

Fucking hell, I fully expect every news outlet to be reporting that we have 4 central defenders out injured and offering their sympathy for how it's affected us, like they have with Spurs and Newcastle.

Indeed I mark that now -

Mings - all season
Buendia- all season
Kamara - will be 4 months
JJ - 3/4 months
Moreno - 3 months
Pau - 2 months (hopefully)
Digne - 6 weeks
Konsa - 4 weeks (hopefully)
Tielemans- 3 weeks
DC - TBC, but if it’s enough to end up in a report it’s at least a month

That’s a lot of fucking injuries - and a good number are really significant, and to key players.

Can add Tim I and Dendoncker to the list as well, neither are particularly established but both missed big chunks of the first half of the season which left us short of cover in there.

Just to be clear I don't think we can use the injuries to cllaim any sort of moral victory as has been done with other teams but it's pretty clear that we're now seeing ourselves stretched to the limit.

Was Sunday Ramsey's first or second start of the season? He's virtually missed over half of it.

[Brend'Watkins]

Our season is down the pan. I don't want to sound defeatist but I can't see it any other way. The injury list won't stay as bad as this till the season's over, we all know which way it will go.

[UK Redsox]

I'm sure Bogarde was recalled in January. Not sure we'll see him on the pitch though

I thought he went back out again but it looks like he is still here so in that case I suspect we'll see him on the bench for the weekend, I wouldn't be trusting Chambers to play 90 right now.

Bogarde came back off loan from Bristol Rovers. There was talk of him going to a championship team, but I don't think it happened.

Chambers didn't make the bench last game, so he might be injured as well

[Rigadon]

WTF!?

[RamboandBruno]

I literally just started laughing when my son told me, what else can you do….doomed, we’re doomed

I think those Kamara and Konsa estimates are very optimistic.

[Rigadon]

Don’t see the Carlos injury forcing a change of shape, at least. I’d like to think we’ll get away with it unless Torres isn’t quite fit enough for 90+ minutes.  If (or is that when!?) we have any more injuries I’m not sure who we’d play in defence, other than kids.

This is truly a test of everyone’s patience and positivity! 

[PaulWinch again]

Well he’s the only senior right sided centre back who was available, so it’s pretty significant to me. I don’t really count Chambers because Emery clearly doesn’t like him.

[Demitri_C]

Hopefully there is recall opions. Surely we wouldnt be silly enough to insert those? Also i know this is desperation but isnt hause still on the books? Id rather have hause than chambers but god knows when he last kicked a ball

Can't recall them outside transfer windows. Well, you can but you can't play them.

Hause is in the building but not in the Premier League squad

Gosh if thats the case we are screwed.  Hause not being registered just seems crazy whats point of playing him for! Might as well release him on a free

I heard bogarde is highly rated so hopefully if he is here he will get a chance

[Risso]

I'd cut short Feeney's loan and bring him back.

[Mister E]

Out with a hamstring injury.

It's okay: we can play Kamara at CB ...
...ahhhh; oh shit.

Konsa is a fine guess I think given we don't really know what he's done.

And I’m basically timing Kamara to end of the season- he’s clearly out longer.

[Gareth]

I'd cut short Feeney's loan and bring him back.

I don’t think we can can we? They can be brought back but can’t play?

If he’s a youngster he’s outside the registration requirements isn’t he?
