Batman Posted 25 March, 2015 Posted 25 March, 2015 Peter cech. A genuinely world class keeper being kept out by one of the few genuinely world class young keepers in the game His wages would be huge. He will still want to challenge for champions league and domestic titles. He is not going to consider southampton this summer. Not when we wont be able to keep clyne etc anyway

Tokyo-Saint Posted 25 March, 2015 Posted 25 March, 2015 Is broken knee cap the technical medical term for it MLG?
Convict Colony Posted 25 March, 2015 Posted 25 March, 2015 @SimonPeach: #SaintsFC goalkeeper Fraser Forster has undergone surgery after damaging patellar tendon. Usual time frame for injury is nine to 12 months.

Usual time frame for injury is nine to 12 months. WTF!! Just had a quick look around the web on my phone and athletes can usually return to their sport around 6 months from surgery Edited 25 March, 2015 by Batman
Matthew Le God Posted 25 March, 2015 Posted 25 March, 2015 Is broken knee cap the technical medical term for it MLG? Why are you asking me that?
Tokyo-Saint Posted 25 March, 2015 Posted 25 March, 2015 Why are you asking me that? Why are you asking me why I am asking?
Georgie Posted 25 March, 2015 Posted 25 March, 2015 Time frame of 6 months being reported but Peach saying 9-12?!!! Two new goalies needed.
Bearsy Posted 25 March, 2015 Posted 25 March, 2015 v.angry, they shouldn't leak knee cap + 6 months, if its patellar tendons + 12 months. That creates False Hope. They should have led with Aids+terminal, or something like that, so we can be relieved when it's p.tendons. Edit: Any idea why they did that MLG?
Batman Posted 25 March, 2015 Posted 25 March, 2015 If it is 9-12 months. New keeper required of a better standard maybe
Convict Colony Posted 25 March, 2015 Posted 25 March, 2015 http://www.sportsinjuryclinic.net/sport-injuries/knee-pain/patellar-tendon-rupture Rehabilitation from a patellar tendon rupture is extremely slow and it may take between 6 and 12 months before the patient is able to return to sports.
spyinthesky Posted 25 March, 2015 Posted 25 March, 2015 Not but he should have come off his line and claimed the first ball Couldn't agree more with this I am gutted that Fraser sustained a serious injury but he does need to look at and improve this part of his game in the future. He stands too far back in his 6 yard box
Bearsy Posted 25 March, 2015 Posted 25 March, 2015 Hope this is all False Rumours. Maybe confusion with Ben Foster? MLG confirm? I find it suspicious that Foster and Forster could both be knee injury at same time
Convict Colony Posted 25 March, 2015 Posted 25 March, 2015 It's a good job our goalies don't get tested that often
LaptopSaint Posted 25 March, 2015 Posted 25 March, 2015 Don't think we'll see him before Christmas... mate of mine did his patellar. Takes time. I'd bring Boruc back if he'd come. He's good enough, and I love having at least one certified nutter in the team.
Asaint4ever Posted 25 March, 2015 Posted 25 March, 2015 So anyone know if we can call boruc back? Also is his contract up at the end of the season?
Matthew Le God Posted 25 March, 2015 Posted 25 March, 2015 (edited) So anyone know if we can call boruc back? We can't. Also is his contract up at the end of the season? Yes it is and I think its extremely unlikely he'll sign a new one as he'd end up as second fiddle to Forster on his return. Edited 25 March, 2015 by Matthew Le God
Mr Saints Posted 25 March, 2015 Posted 25 March, 2015 Butland to join in the summer? Young, English, knows the GK coach, etc

Asaint4ever Posted 25 March, 2015 Posted 25 March, 2015 We can't. Yes, it is and I think its extremely unlikely he'll sign a new one as he'd end up as second fiddle to Forster on his return. I won't go begging on his instergram then
simo Posted 25 March, 2015 Posted 25 March, 2015 What Dutch keepers or decent keepers playing in the Dutch league are there!?
rshephard3 Posted 25 March, 2015 Posted 25 March, 2015 BBC and Sky both reporting 9 months to a year.
Saint Charlie Posted 25 March, 2015 Posted 25 March, 2015 Big blow in the position we have the weakest depth.
Appy Posted 25 March, 2015 Posted 25 March, 2015 Butland to join in the summer? Young, English, knows the GK coach, etc Just signed a new contract at Stoke. Alex McCarthy would be my suggestion.
Smirking_Saint Posted 25 March, 2015 Posted 25 March, 2015 What Dutch keepers or decent keepers playing in the Dutch league are there!? Cillesson or whatever his name is ?
LatvianTolix Posted 25 March, 2015 Posted 25 March, 2015 I see Bournemouth are having the last game on 2/5. It means Artur will be available for our last 3 games, if Bournemouth avoid play-offs. Or his loan-contract is until late June???
JakkoUK Posted 25 March, 2015 Posted 25 March, 2015 What Dutch keepers or decent keepers playing in the Dutch league are there!? Jasper Cillessen who plays for Ajax, 25 years old. (highly unlikely though)

sadoldgit Posted 25 March, 2015 Posted 25 March, 2015 Is broken knee cap the technical medical term for it MLG? I had this, damaged tendon. Was only out a few months but then mine was just strained. I don't know where the broken knee cap is coming from?

LGTL Posted 25 March, 2015 Posted 25 March, 2015 Doing anything to tendons/ligaments is almost always worse then a fracture. Rodriguez could have snapped his tibia and he'd have been back by now... 9 months minimum
Saints foreva Posted 25 March, 2015 Posted 25 March, 2015 If it's 9 months minimum then we will need a new number 1, not someone to just fill in until he's fit again.
East Kent Saint Posted 25 March, 2015 Posted 25 March, 2015 If he was considered immobile before .........
SO16_Saint Posted 25 March, 2015 Posted 25 March, 2015 Is goalkeeper the only position we've not brought anyone through from the academy for?
S-Clarke Posted 25 March, 2015 Posted 25 March, 2015 This is a bit of a disaster to say the least. I'd say this will be on par/similar to the Jay injury, I wouldn't expect to see him next season what so ever. So, we need a new GK. No doubts about that what so ever, as a club we kind of need to look at it that we don't have a GK, and get the best we can get. I don't think we need to look at this as a stop gap, we need a new No.1 keeper, full stop. What worries me is the fear we may stop-gap, like we did with Killer and Oakley. I honestly think the club have to be ruthless here and just go out there and spend $$$ on a brand new number 1, Fraser will have to fight his way back if he returns.
VectisSaint Posted 25 March, 2015 Posted 25 March, 2015 Very sad for Forster, this is far worse than a broken knee cap, and it seems there is some risk of never making a full recovery. Wish the guy well. But it does mean that the Club will have to plan for the worst and we will need a new #1 for next season, whether that player is then seen as #2 longer term or not will be difficult o determine. We always did need a new keeper in the summer, now it looks like we might need two otherwise we will be in the same position next season as we were this, a serious injury away from being in the **** (due respect to Kelvin who is a proven great shot stopper, but in all other respects is not a PL standard keeper). By the way, the thoughts of getting Cech is not as silly as some on here would suggest. He is stated today as looking for #1 role (http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/32055622), and perhaps a loan from Chelsea could be worked out rather than us having to pay full wages, which agreed would otherwise be astronomical. If we make Europe, Petr Cech might consider a season long loan. Probably unlikely but not as far fetched as some would have you believe (certainly not so far fetched that idiots need to label people as loons for suggesting it).

Probably unlikely but not as far fetched as some would have you believe (certainly not so far fetched that idiots need to label people as loons for suggesting it). He'll be able to get a No.1 spot at Arsenal or Liverpool pretty easily I'd say, and those clubs are registered with an interested. I think he'll go to one of those 2. We obviously do need a top new GK, but someone of his level is out of our league.

S-Clarke Posted 25 March, 2015 Posted 25 March, 2015 I agree but the latest quotes by Les Reed suggest we will be relying on our current three.... I think he was only referring to this season, which is all we can do really. But next season is a different ball game and I'm sure the club aren't silly enough to go along with those 3 in the hope that Fraser may return. And i'm pretty sure Koeman wouldn't be keen on that either. No disrespect to the other 3, esp. Davis who is a great pro, but none of them are really good enough for 2nd fiddle in the PL (davis at a push), let alone first choice.
