Loan Watch: Manor Solomon

[Snuzzy]

He slipped, it happens.

...Steven?

 

[FibreOpticJesus]

Anyone know why he wasn’t in the squad this weekend?

New Solomon injury:

The winger had just recovered from a back problem and looked on course to return on Saturday, but a hamstring injury has now delayed that return, much to the frustration of those at Elland Road.

Speaking on team news ahead of Coventry, Farke told reporters: “A few injury updates. Manor’s back issues have resulted in a hamstring problem and will miss this game.

Some people’s bodies just aren’t capable of matching their brain’s ambitions.

For me it's the other way round, particularly when it comes to dating.

Not massively uncommon to get a few injuries when coming back from a 8/9 month injury tbf.

True. Also coming off a back injury. We all know how overcompensating for an injury can have a knock-on effect. id guess this is a minor one and he's back very soon.

Guy can't catch a break. From the 5 minutes I saw of him it was encouraging. Willing and able to take his man on and then woosh. Vanished from sight with injuries ever since.

I've had the same. Herniated disc leading to a hamstring injury as the other side takes more weight than it should. Not easy to try and fix them both.

Our club has some sort of curse whereby any player that, in their hubris, dares to go round an opponent is immediately struck down by injury.

Leeds United signing Tottenham crock, ex-Newcastle star's return among five Championship summer mistakes

Silly Leeds United signing a Tottenham Hotspur crock and Matt Ritchie's Portsmouth return are among five summer mistakes involving Championship clubs...

Major sales were always likely following Leeds United’s loss in the Championship play-off final, but their infuriatingly prolonged search for replacements added to the bad vibes among the fan base.

Leeds did eventually get their act together and built a squad capable of contending for automatic promotion, but their decision to sign Solomon is not paying off.

The Israel international overcame knee surgery to shine for Fulham while on loan in 2022/23 and this earned him a move to Tottenham Hotspur. This 2023 summer transfer preceded a disastrous season for the winger, who missed the majority of his debut campaign after being forced to undergo meniscus surgery.
Desperate for game time, Solomon agreed to join Leeds on loan in August. This had the potential to be a real coup for the West Yorkshire side as he had previously plied his trade at a much higher level than the Championship.

However, this is on track to be another frustrating season for Solomon, who has been out of action since Leeds United’s 1-0 loss to Burnley last month due to hamstring and back problems. So, Farke’s side appears to have got their maths wrong with this calculated risk.

I hear you, but also not really, because I can't understand how anyone can even make a list like this at this stage of the season.
