If Richarlison and Kulu were fit I'd be quite happy that Son was out for a few weeks.
He's been basically a burden rather than an asset lately. Hopefully a few weeks off, get some games at the World Cup, go out with some pride, come back and recuperate and be back to his best on Boxing Day.

He's just had his face smashed in...... It's not a casual couple of weeks at a spa FFS.


The (bafflingly common) thinking that an injury is some form of 'rest' is ludicrous.

I was thinking this but the only way I could personally put him in is put Davies in lwb as I think salah will destroy sess leaving the lcb position open which then means sanchez comes in as he's the only other fit cb we have. I think ultimately he's probably going to stick with perisic and emerson and go lucas kane up top.

Sess has done well against Salah in the past.

you're going to get legit horror accidents. but you're telling me that you think its not a problem to be going into challenges scared and half hearted? you think thats not dangerous? the fact hes been dodging headers and 50-50s for a while then ends up hurt when hes forced into one says it all.

Eriksen did the same thing and never got hurt like this.

I agree that having a habit of going in soft can mean you forget how to protect yourself in heavy challenges. It’s no guarantee you’ll get hurt though. The orbital fracture is not common and a bit of a freak accident.

eriksen has a superior football I.Q. he wouldn't go up for a header that way. jump up limp with feet coming apart like a starfish and then close his eyes and put his face down. its about as dangerous as it gets, and hes done that because hes terrified of being in a collision and heading a ball.
 
This World cup is actually going to save our arse. Which is kinda ironic given how much I've been complaining about it being mid-season to anyone who will listen.

We would have been fucked if we had to compete over the next two months in the Prem with the injuries we have.

As it is we are probably looking at getting pumped by Liverpool and hopefully navigating Forest in the cup and that's pretty much it.

Pray the players all get fit in the interim and we add a couple in Jan.
