DT Posted 14 December, 2021 Posted 14 December, 2021 Is Stuart Armstrong's 'calf injury' the worst of its kind ever? Or is it a smokescreen for him having had a falling out with Ralph? Just a thought.

He'd return for a couple of weeks and then be out for months again. It's not a good injury to have - can be extremely difficult to "cure".

Funny how it miraculously cleared up for the Scotland games but then flared up again immediately afterwards.

Not the first time Scotland have mismanaged him and he’s come back crocked. So I don’t see a conspiracy.

One of the main issue is it often "feels" better so you run on it again and it goes again. Horrible injury. Mine only full recovered when I gave up exercise (prioritised supporting the hospitality industry) for a good 6 months. 1

Is this normal for someone who is supposedly close to a return (not to mention so key to our attacking prowess)? I sniff something a bit odd here 2 1

Saint Pete Posted 9 January, 2022 Posted 9 January, 2022 13 hours ago, SuperSAINT said: Hard to say whether it would have made a difference with this particular injury but I can't help feeling that we have pushed Tino too far with too many games for such a young player. It seemed pretty clear that he was tired in some of the games in recent months so ought to have been given a rest, particularly given that we did have decent backup with KWP and Perraud in the squad to cover full back positions.
The Cat Posted 11 January, 2022 Posted 11 January, 2022 Redmond and Tella both sat down injured before going off tonight. Wonder if either of them will be a doubt for Saturday?

I know this is a well mentioned thing, but it’s SO good to have 2 fullbacks in each position 😁

Now we have Tino, KWP, Perruad, Valery and Small on our books. The club said they were focused on adding to the full back area's, and they delivered on that! That's why I have real confidence in the summer window as it seems as if we have a well thought out plan for how we evolve this squad...bit by bit. 3
AlexLaw76 Posted 8 February, 2022 Posted 8 February, 2022 Ah, that is crap for Lyanco. He was doing well. At least Broja's injury is not serious, even if he misses out tomorrow
VectisSaint Posted 8 February, 2022 Posted 8 February, 2022 3 hours ago, SuperSAINT said: Is Bednarek available? Still seems odd to me that he wasn't in the squad Saturday (understand why he wasn't in the starting xi). Almost everyone else was included.
S-Clarke Posted 8 February, 2022 Posted 8 February, 2022 Blow for Lyanco, he has settled in quite well in recent weeks. He's certainly not the player we were told to expect by the Torino fans.
Baird of the land Posted 9 February, 2022 Posted 9 February, 2022 That’s bad news about lyanco. Was hoping he’d just be out for a month.
Nordic Saint Posted 12 February, 2022 Posted 12 February, 2022 (edited) With Fraser Forster in goal it's like the 2015/16 season again. He is such an inspiration to the whole team. It's a sobering thought that if McCarthy had still been in goal, we'd probably have lost 4-1 today. The midfield of Armstorng, Ward-Prowse, Romeu and Elyounoussi is more than a match for any team in the league. Broja and Adams up front are getting better and better too and you expect them to score in every game. Walcott not even on the bench was a relief too. Ralph has got his best XI playing brilliantly and they can beat anyone. This could well be our year to win the FA Cup again, as long as that forst XI doesn't get hit by injuries and suspensions..

paulwantsapint Posted 12 February, 2022 Posted 12 February, 2022 Is JB injury serious as that’s 2 cb injured in a week ?
Saint Fan CaM Posted 15 February, 2022 Posted 15 February, 2022 Note to Ralph; please don’t tinker…leave a winning side alone. 1

But yeah, I want to see Redmond (for example) fight and earn a place in the side…not just waltz in because his contract mandates he’s got to play if fit or because he’s a ‘senior’ player. My biggest fear is that KWP and Perraud will be ousted by Tino, which IMO will unbalance the side.

I also agree that places need to be earnt back and not just automatic. 1
Give it to Ron Posted 3 March, 2022 Posted 3 March, 2022 Moi ankle and Sali hamstring not sure how long out .
waylander Posted 3 March, 2022 Posted 3 March, 2022 KWP came off last night with a "little hamstring issue" according to Ralph.

SNSUN Posted 7 April, 2022 Posted 7 April, 2022 Thought I'd stick this here. We're roughly mid-table for injuries this season. It's no surprise to see some relegation threatened teams have had the most injuries. Also Palace, Wolves and West Ham's squads have largely been untested, particularly Palace's who seem to have been able to keep their first XI largely intact. 1
DT Posted 26 April, 2022 Posted 26 April, 2022 Tino - suspected ACL. Out for 2022. According to @saintsextra 1

Someone on here said he rejoined training last week, so if that's the start of his pre-season prep, I wouldn't expect him to be available for the first couple of weeks - if all goes to plan.
