Oh thanks for that:(

[Ivan Katalinic's 'tache]

Hopefully this doesn't mean McCarthy will have to come into the first team and take over penalty taking duties...

[Saint-Armstrong]

In Stuart Taylor We Trust.

Would suggest it's not great for him to withdraw from the squad completely. Hopefully back for Arsenal...

[S-Clarke]

Hopefully the club let us know, they kinda like to keep bad injuries under wraps for some reason.

There's only one game and so if he's out of that one then make sense for him to come back for treatment. Hopefully we get an update and that it's nothing serious. We are probably getting beat with or without him at Arsenal so hope he's back for Swansea.

Still got half an hour to sign a replacement.

Blackmore has just tweeted that it's "minor". Good good.

Ah good, thought it was two. Fingers crossed!!

Maybe hes doing it so he doesnt have to play in the internationals?

 

These sort of fake injuries are common in the international week- swear it was done a lot under Sir Alex Ferguson

[Dark Munster]

Maybe his arm was caught in the transfer window as it slammed shut?

....it's at times like this that I'm glad that it isn't Gazzaniga sat waiting on the bench.

 

hopefully Fraser will be fit for the Arsenal game, but at least we have two " possible stand-ins " who know what the Prem is about.

[Saint-Armstrong]

Alex McCarthy called up to replace Fraser Forster, strangely enough.

 

If anything happens to this one then we're down to Stuart Taylor.

[Mattio]

England number one and England's number 13

yep, even in these days of laser treatments and MRIs, we still like to put a bandage on some inguries.
