Injury watch 2020/21

[Chameleon]

Swift coming back will be great. Realistically he can rotate into any of Olise, Ejaria, Laurent, and Rino's positions (plus Meite's at a stretch). Between the packed fixture list and his talent it's hard not to see him playing the majority of games that he's fit for.

[Hendo]

Anyone got an idea when Puscas is back? I’d much rather see him come off the bench tomorrow. Baldock will get bullied by Brum.

If he has a hernia, I expect it will be another couple of months at least.

Depends if it needs surgery I think. Could be before Christmas if not was the suggestion from Pauno

That would be a bonus if so.

As I understand things, Puscas has a “sports” hernia and the club are assessing things to see if it “settles down” or whether surgery will be needed. Return date unspecified.

Judging by his Instagram that hernia was from hitting the weights too hard.

I don't see him replacing Laurent or Rinomhota.

Those two have formed a great partnership in midfield, given us some much needed solidity and together have been the difference from last year. I'm not sure we have ready replacements for either.

I'd have Swift on the bench to start, where he could be a useful option for Ejaria
and possibly for Olise too.

Yep. He is there to create so it will be one of Ejaria or Olise that will make way for him in the latter stages of matches.

[Mid Sussex Royal]

Yiadom and Puscas out until well in to the new year; Arauna back soon after Swift

He'd do a reasonable job if one of Rino or Laurent got injured though... or for one them if we need to press for a winner and are in control.

[mumbo-jumbo]

So what is supposed to have happened to Joao? Must have missed that
Understand Meite had a clash with keeper (? head ? knee) but why is everyone talking about them both being out? Will be tough if that's the case

Joao spent the last five minutes barely walking. Looked like his hamstring was playing up.

Oh dear, bad news indeed. 6 weeks without him could see us really sliding south in the table

[windermereROYAL]

Is that 3 hamstring injuries now since Joao has been here? clearly walking a tight rope every time he crosses that white line.

[WestYorksRoyal]

I'm fairly sure there would have been more rotation and protection if Puscas was fit. One injury has basically increased the risk of another.

yep that pretty much.

[Mid Sussex Royal]

Yaks back "stronger and soon" according to his twitter message so maybe a week?

So he will miss QPR and Norwich. Far from ideal.

Much better than I thought when I saw the clash and him holding his knee

Have we had any sort of confirmation on whether he is definitely out?
