They “cane back early from injury early”?
:cautious: :rolleyes::LOL:

They really didn’t. Poch was always extra careful in bringing injured players back into the team. If you think otherwise, you weren’t keeping up.

Lots of revisionism when it comes to Poch.
Yeah, he was always extra careful in bringing injured players back into the team..........like when Kane damaged his ankle ligaments in January last year and he started the first game he was available in late Feb (no time coming on as a sub, just a straight start) then 6 games later he damaged his ankle ligaments again but at least we had learned our lesson and didn't rush him back for the CL final, dropping the player who scored us a hattrick to get us there.......

Ndombele is a class player. We dont have many.
Mourinho is totally wrong to be disrespectful when mentioning him and making faces.
We have many runners and workers.
Now was the perfect opportunity for Winks to really make a name for himself as a good defender or a good support player and it's been mediocre at best.
Ndombele is top notch.Its with this kind of class we can forge forward and compete.

That is just not the case. Kane was rushed back into the team prematurely on a number of occasions.

Besides Kane (who I imagine was banging Poch’s door down to play), Poch literally never ‘rushed players back from injury’.

No idea where you’ve dreamt up that idea from.

See above. I said APART from Kane.

Can't wait to see him back on the pitch, we're in desperate need for that quality and creative spark. It's been a tough few weeks and we're not getting that small margin of fortune. Hopefully Ndombele coming back into the team will give us that margin - the ability to play through-balls to put Son or Moura in on goal, rather than hoofing up long-balls without a target-man striker to aim for.

Even if he’s back in full training I’d rather save him for the FA Cup game at Southampton at the weekend.

Anyone thinking Ndombele is going to be our saviour is in for a rude awakening . I genuinely hope my opinion of this bloke is completely wrong and he makes a fool of me I really do . But for me Too soft .Too unfit. No belly for the tough side of playing in the premiership is my assessment albeit he has all the skills any player would need . I would hold up my hands in a heartbeat if proven wrong as I desperately want us to succeed .And its only opinion as some have exactly the opposite ideas on this fella .

How can you make that assessment after 15 games in his first season in the PL, whilst injured and playing in a poor team?
