Huge loss. Probably our best player and covers both midfield and cb.
Likely to miss at least 17 games.
Tanaka looks like a very good replacement but would have been nice to see them together.
Need Struijk to stay fit now.
Ampadu out till January

Can we not call Gyabi back?

I think Farke said he sees Debayo as an option at cb
----------------------------------------------------------------------
and what are your thoughts on this from past u21 performances?

If Debayo is the answer we might be effed.

Ampadu is a midfielder who turned into a very reliable
CB, maybe we can try it with Rothwell if we get desperate.

Wasn't my point. Im simply pointing out thats what Farke said. He must see something in him 🤷

Ive watched him live, quite a few times, big lad, good on the ball.
But completely different game is the champ, Risky.
Think Byram might be brought in centrally

Agree about Byram I asked about Debayo and was told decent but cant head it which doesnt bode well in the champ likewise in midfiled Crew is good at the nice things and not so good at the nitty gritty stuff and Spencer might be a better bet though still a gamble.
Theres no doubt abut it we are going to need some luck with injuries from now till christmas but as Lena Martell sang in 1979 its One Game at a Time Sweet Jesus

Would be amazed if Rothwell is used as a cb. I mean there’s no chance surely. Nothing about his game makes me think he could play cb.

Schmidt might make more sense than Rothwell at CB

Schmidt is apparently out with a small niggle. Firpo, Schmidt and Debayo will all play CB ahead of Rothwell.
