I would say there are definitely questions regarding injuries. Are our weekly sessions and preparation 'correct'? Are our Sports Science staff up to the job? Appreciate the season is compressed this year and several clubs are having challenges with injuries but there are plenty who aren't. Some will be masked by greater squad depth I take that but I do question whether 'we' are somewhat to blame for our inability to get 11 decent players on the pitch each week.

You’re taking the piss out of someone’s posting contribution? The irony.

A phrase I never thought I would see written down.

Or just play with 10.

I know most clubs are complaining wrt injuries in this compacted schedule but we seem to have issues that raise the question over one or more of fitness, training techniques, playing style or whether our behind the scenes sports science team are up to the job.

You think we're paying all his wages? This is not FIFAwhatever.

The Club have not made that request. It appears to be some made-up pony.

Our injury position is not normal. Going off tangent somewhat, but it raises questions as to what and why this is happening and whether we have the right training and medical staff in place for the high press / tempo style we try to play.

Jack Stephens has never shown a flash of brilliance so the simile ends there.

It's fairly obvious that those comments were made to tow the Club line based on the fact we couldn't afford a squad of the needed quality. No manager in the history of the game has ever wanted to hamstring himself with limiting their options. I'm amazed anyone fell for this Club spin.

Helsinki?

Walker-Peters Jan 2020

Maybe at 20 and 21 they're not considering Vokins and Valery as Youth?............I know, I'm just trying to give Semmens some latitude on his statement 😉

The last part is the most damning

Oh well. At least he has Stephens in front of him.

Missing 3 of our best players makes us a lower middle half performing team ergo a draw and that performance shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone and makes the criticism and moaning pointless.

Long and Stephens. Wowzers.

Unlikely to win? At home to a team below us and struggling for form. Ok then.

Remember Lee mostly from Zorba's. The late night drunken cr@p he had to put up with there was always entertaining.

Do you think he's seen the contract?

And Spurs look so much better with him in theirs.

By regularly appearing in training photos and being discussed by Ralph. Yeah right. Airbrushed out of existence.

Judging by how many people are unable to sleep at night due to the uncertainty surrounding the young chap I suggest the Club take action to address this. Really quickly. Like now. Hurry up.

Ralph should just check-in here for all his solutions. WTF does he know.
