Pau Torres

[Paul.S]

Surely we deserve some good news with injuries and he’s ok. I pray they don’t say a few weeks because we all know what that means.

[manic-road]

Hope he doesn't have an injury again and that it was a precautionary substitution.

The best since McGrath

[Toronto Villa]

Pau Torres will have scan after struggling with a "small pain" at the back of his leg in the first half of Aston Villa's win over Nottingham Forest.

He was replaced by Calum Chambers only as a precaution and Unai Emery isn't too concerned.

See you in August Pau.

“Small pain” was how Brentford was described wasn’t it? Please be nothing.

[Goldenballs]

😩 FFS.

[Demitri_C]

He said it wasnt a new injury just a precaution

With our injury list wise move i think.

[usav]

Yep - I think he’s fine.

[N'ZMAV]

I imagine every player comes off the pitch with a small pain.

I hope it's nothing but.....
We will need him badly at home to Spurs.

Going to Luton with Chambers/Lenglet as a CB partnership it looks like. Not sure any PL club is down to their 5th and 6th choices but to be fair to Lenglet, he is performing a lot better than I expected he would.

Why do you need a scan if it’s just a precaution?

[Somniloquism]

TBF, Lenglet has played regularly at the top Spanish team and in the Champions League, so it isn't like we were getting an unknown person from Sarkovia. However his first League* games  was with Torres injured. So I expect having to get used to the Prem pace and how we play suddenly in the last 9 games hasn't been the best intro. Same with Torres not looking like a good "strong" defender after being thrown in when Mings was injured.

*I'm aware he played for Spurs last season, but that was 7 months gap in league games and different styles.

[Somniloquism]

Why do you need a scan if it’s just a precaution?

He reported a pain at half time but could have played on. We took him off as a precaution and want a scan to see if anything unforeseen might be causing the pain.

[PaulWinch again]

Fair enough - just for once let it be nothing, and hopefully he’s just a bit of edge after the recent injury.
