Mounting fitness concerns, will we have at least 11?
A massive 13 of our 25 are out (as I write this), with a few possibles to face Norwich.
But blimey, the list is endless. No fit strikers currrently - although I cant understand why HH is a doubt seeing as he played half the game v Stoke with the injury.
8..CAM..Kieron Dyer..........Foot Ligament Strain...Now Running (Start of Dec)
16.CB....Matthew C..........Ankle........................Now Running (Start of Dec)
9...ST...DJ Campbell.........Metatarsal.................Streng thening (End of Dec)
5.. CB...Fitz Hall...............Hamstring.................Out for 4Wks (Start of Dec)
7..CAM..Adel Taarabt........No Passport!!.............Unknown
26..GK...Brian Murphy........Calf Strain................Few Weeks (Mid Dec)
42..LM...Jason Puncheon....Tonsilitis..................Back in Training
18..RB....Luke Young..........Knee......................Resumes Training on 24th
22..ST....Heidar Helguson....Facial Injury............Doubt for Norwich
13..LB....Armand Traore......Thigh.....................Managing Injury
10..ST...Jay Bothroyd........Hamstring................Resumes Training on 24th
6...CB....Danny Gabbidon....Post Injury Effects.....Resumes Training on 24th
17..CAM..Joey Barton.........Suspended...............One Game - Norwich
So we could have Puncheon, Taarabt, Young, Helguson, Traore, Bothroyd and Gabbidon back but most of them will have done little training and be unfit for the game or carrying a slight injury. Im bloody annoyed about this seeing as I hate Norwich and I am desperate for us to beat them. But with depleted numbers its going to be a massive task. I remember when we went there last year we had Agyemang playing as we had no other strikers.
And to add to that list Perone has barely played and from NW comments earlier in the season isnt ready!
What would be your team if none of the above made it?
------------------KENNY----------------
ORR-----FERDINAND----PERONE------HILL
------------DERRY----FAURLIN-----------
SWP-----------BUZSAKY-----------SMITH
---------------MACKIE------------------
SUBS: CERNY, and thats it! Will have to be youngsters.
Id rather have Hill at CB than Perone but numbers dont allow it unless we play Hewitt up front and put Mackie at RB where he played a few last season. Could mix the front 4 around upfront most ways really. Smith has played ST before.
My god I hope NW is playing mind games with Norwich regarding this!
so i take it your looking for a Guns AT Dawn with NW for giving secrets away......expect the press calls and e-mails !!!!!!
Heard yesterday another key player is out injured...wont say who as i tguess the club are keeping it off the radar... but looks like we're really up agaisnt it.
i know its a bit of a **** thread but thought id give you all a heads up to expect the worst
Just been told he who shall not be named is out for 6 weeks.
EDIT!!
SORRY LADS, meant 6 weeks not months..... thats what you get for posting at work on the mobile.
