Matthew Le God Posted 11 December, 2016 Share Posted 11 December, 2016 Puel confirms Austin needs surgery and will be out for 3-4 months that is why he cost us only £4m Any player that falls awkwardly like that and dislocated a shoulder would be out for a similar time. The reason Austin cost £4m is because he had only 6 months left on his contract and was at a Championship club in need of money. But don't let that get in the way of being negative Batman...

I might be wrong but i seem to remember Kelvin Davis dislocating Austins shoulder in a 1-0 defeat at Swindon in League One. If so then that makes it all the more likely to happen again. So it's Kelvin's fault lol.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so then that makes it all the more likely to happen again. So it's Kelvin's fault lol.. Its the 3rd or 4th time he has done a shoulder. While he and Hoddle were at QPR Hodbstated that Chas always had heavy strapping on both shoulders. It was clear it was very likely to happen again, thats why no other ckub bought him and partly why he was a knock down price. We took a risk, now he is out for the season effectively. Bad luck? No. Calculated risk, didn't pay off. Now we need a striker in Jan. Someone who can hold the ball up and also score goals in the winter months.

Fitzhugh Fella Posted 11 December, 2016 Share Posted 11 December, 2016 When the HITC website said that McQueen was close to signing a new deal at Saints (just before he did) - they also mentioned in the same article that Targett had faced a big setback in his injury comeback. Looks like they were spot-on with that one too. Targett had an op yesterday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuncanRG Posted 11 December, 2016 Share Posted 11 December, 2016 Austin was a known injury risk when we signed him and that may well have brought his price down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Batman Posted 13 December, 2016 Share Posted 13 December, 2016 Charlies current injury involved an old scar from a previous operation opening up. Pretty Grim. Once your shoulder is weak, it stays weak. but MLG says his injury is common for ANYONE who falls likes he did and nothing to do with previous troubles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, at least got a mention this week by Claude, but nothing about when he might be back. Not in the goalkeeper pics today so presumably not training. Seems odd as it looked like he just did a hammy, if woukd have thought he would be training by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Found this online for you: "Things are written all the time about recovery times, especially for hamstring strains. I tend to think about anything up to 3 weeks for a grade 1, anything from between 2 and 8 weeks for a grade 2 hamstring strain and you are looking at pretty much 12 weeks for a grade 3. It can be anything within that." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shance Posted 14 December, 2016 Share Posted 14 December, 2016 I think it's pretty clear that Charlie has some sort of hyper mobility in his shoulder joints. I have it in my shoulders, hips and fingers and my shoulders do dislocate quite a bit but in his defence, it was a pretty nasty landing. That could've dislocated most players shoulders tbf.

Charlie Wayman Posted 16 December, 2016 Share Posted 16 December, 2016 Posted on Instagram he had the flu You'd have thought the staff would have made sure he had a winter flu jab back in September.

Had he played he could have snuffled out any attacking threats down their left side. A flu jab doesn't guarantee protection from getting it, just decreases the chances. Having said that, if he (and others) didn't have one questions need to be asked about the staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trousers Posted 5 January, 2017 Share Posted 5 January, 2017 Whatever happened to Gardos?? No-one bothers to mention him anymore. It's a tad bonkers, isn't it? He makes a few u23 appearances and then nothing. You'd have thought VvD's recent suspension would have been the perfect opportunity to reintroduce him to the first team squad. Bit of an odd one, that's for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
