[Boots22]

Great news, seriously missed his drive in the middle of the park...

Good. It'll be a strong midfield again with him and Dembele in there with Sandro.

Hudd will be back to bench warming duties hopefully.

 

[chinaman]

That means he's still something like 3 weeks away.

More good news

 

[JAYSTAR]

That is good news.
I'm really keen to see him play next to Sandro for away games and Dembele further forward and have Carroll on in his place for home games:
What a team we've nearly got..!

..................Lloris
walker kaboul verts bae
...........sandro parker
...............Dembele
Lennon .....................Bale
...............Adebayor

Or 442

...................Lloris

Walker Kaboul Verts Bae

Lennon Sandro Carroll Bale

............Adebayor Defoe.

This could be very good news, he and Sandro will have a vital role to play for us and due to the high energy nature of their respective games the best thing for both of them is to be able to put in shifts around each other and hopefully enable both to remain physically and mentally fit from now until the end of the season (well from when Scottie returns anyway)

They could even provide a pretty solid base for Dembele in games where we feel we need to be extra combative in midfield (although this type of system has never worked for us well in the past)

 

[PT]

I don't think we'll see him before Christmas.

 

[Donki]

I'd say Parker will be back sooner rather than later, he will be chum ping at the bit to to get back in action. All heart!

 

[saintlyspur]

I didn't think we would miss him.Ive got to say I was wrong

 

[Snarfalicious]

He will be such a boost for our midfield. Not only can he obviously start and perform well, but he will give us something we thought we would have all along: quality midfield rotation (well, to be honest, unless Carroll continues to thrive we are probably one more quality midfielder away from that).

Keeps everyone fresh, and I like the idea of being able to give Sandro some much-needed rest if we can get our form up to the point where taking Sandro out doesn't completely put us up Shit's Creek.

 

[branchie]

About bloody time. How we've missed his leadership

 

[Mr Pink]

at best, he might be back for the busy christmas period I reckon.

Potl says back in 3weeks

havent seen him say 3 weeks.

Only thing POTL has posted today on coys is:

Is back in full training, as of today. Dembele has been in Belgium doing his rehab- may travel to Lazio tomorrow with the team, could be involved Sunday.

Finally some positive news on the injury front.

[Mr Pink]

Only thing POTL has posted today on coys is:

i think he's talking about Parker...?

 

[chrissivad]

i think he's talking about Parker...?

Sorry, the quote I posted from POTL was in the Parker thread over on COYS

The first part "Is back in full training, as of today" is about Parker

 

[punkisback]

He would be useful to give us some bite, but lets be honest he's not a Driving player. He can run with the ball when there is space but 99% of the time it comes to nothing or he overhits the pass. In fact my main gripe with him in the second half of last season was his ill discipline on the ball, he didn't keep it simple but rather he tried to advance in front of modric instead of letting modric do the attacking.

 

[MightyModric]

We've missed his energy and determination. Hopefully he's put straight into the team for huddleton and shift Dembele up behind Defoe

 

[DuDe]

Ah, is that another ray of sunshine I see breaking through the clouds?
