Lallana's Left Peg Posted 10 August, 2013 Share Posted 10 August, 2013 Depends if they are torn, strained, bruised, tweaked, whatever. As a general rule of thumb though it would be a minimum three weeks best case, if his ligaments really have been damaged in the 'best' of ways.

Stepgar Posted 10 August, 2013 Author Share Posted 10 August, 2013 Ouch!! One would think we would go out to buy another LB if thats the case. Perhaps Buttner on loan?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgie Posted 10 August, 2013 Share Posted 10 August, 2013 Need another left back, possibly on loan until January. Despite Fox apparently being ok back up he is not good enough for a prolonged run in the side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint_clark Posted 10 August, 2013 Share Posted 10 August, 2013 Need another left back, possibly on loan until January. Despite Fox apparently being ok back up he is not good enough for a prolonged run in the side Agree with this. If Shaw is out for anything over a month we need to look at getting someone in on loan.

Toon Saint Posted 10 August, 2013 Share Posted 10 August, 2013 Adam Blackmore @bigadamsport 51s I'm told Luke Shaw will have a scan tomorrow on his injured knee - the feeling is that it's ligament damage but not bad #saintsfc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Clarke Posted 10 August, 2013 Share Posted 10 August, 2013 Need another left back, possibly on loan until January. Despite Fox apparently being ok back up he is not good enough for a prolonged run in the side What we should do is now replace fox, go out there and buy a better left back than Fox full stop. The new fullback then replaces shaw, Fox continues as cover until Shaw is back. Then once shaw is back, Fox leaves...evolution of the squad....but we're probably going to have our hands forced here.

Saints boy in Leeds Posted 10 August, 2013 Share Posted 10 August, 2013 I find it funny how most of us fans have been crying out for a LB as back up / competition for Shaw yet the powers that be didn't. We need a LB and striker at the very least if we are to improve more than a few places than last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Batman Posted 10 August, 2013 Share Posted 10 August, 2013 if he is out for 'weeks' we would need to get someone in I would have thought. Riise would be ideal. Free offer him a 1 year deal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Restark19 Posted 10 August, 2013 Share Posted 10 August, 2013 Riise available on a free. Worth getting in on a pay as you play or 1 year deal as cover? would definitely take him on a 1 year deal, Fox isn't good enough to be first choice at this level, Riise has a lot of experience at this level and would be great competition for Shaw when he's fit again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patred44 Posted 10 August, 2013 Share Posted 10 August, 2013 This. except that we are already interested enough to send a half a dozen 'scouts' to the Colchester v Ipswich friendly the other week to run the rule over Creswell. Ipswich would want in the region of £2-3m for him. There is a derinate interest there..and made even more so now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuncanRG Posted 10 August, 2013 Share Posted 10 August, 2013 Fingers crossed he'll be okay. If he's out for more than a month or two we'll need to loan someone in I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlakeySFC Posted 10 August, 2013 Share Posted 10 August, 2013 We NEED to get in another LB now. If we don't it could be the difference between us finishing 8-12th or finishing 13th-15th. I've said it time and time again, Fox is just not good enough at this level. He's alright filling in for the odd game here and there but for the first 4-7 games of the season...no way josé.

Rasiak-9- Posted 10 August, 2013 Share Posted 10 August, 2013 I was singing the praises of Maynor Figeuroa for a long time, especially after Wigan were relegated and he'd be very much an achievable target. Plus he's totally competent at centre-back. Now he's gone to Hull and we've missed our chance. Really poor stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jasoneuelllfanclub Posted 10 August, 2013 Share Posted 10 August, 2013 Maybe little as 2 weeks or worse case scenario 9 months. Lets wait and see before we start pressing panic button.
