Given, the injuries are hip and knee, that is doubly alarming. He strikes me as one who doesn’t follow high nutrition, coupled with our medical/conditioning recent history = major alarm bells.Given our record with injuries and also expensive signings, this is just the biggest accident waiting to happen.
If he went barcodes, they would get lucky and he’d be fine.
Bentancur hadnt missed a game in years… first full season with us, blows out his knee.
If we did blow a big sum on Maddison and his knee was a problem, it would be the clearest sign the club hasn’t learned
The three months this season, might well have been from over exertion, giving every last drop to get to the World Cup (same Bentancur IMO).
Would accept Maddison happily, on ability, but think an Eze would be much safer and more long term (probably about the same £).
Eze and Scott please.
Would be typical, Eze goes elsewhere and explodes, Palace sign Jack Clark to replace Eze and he explodes as well! We sign Maddison and his hips and knees all explode!What’s the bet we overpay for Maddison and Barnes instead. Then Eze blows up whilst Maddison is injured for half the season?
