That's the only positive, if we can get him ready for 22/23 season he can have a decent crack.

One more long term injury though, it reaches the point of should we get someone else in? (I don't want MG to leave us)

The same thing was said last season.

End of season always sounds worse this time of year - it's six games.

It's 15% of the season, he'll have ended up playing in about 50%, the same as last season

Calf tear often caused by poor posture.

Said it time and time again, players at CCFC have poor core muscles and strength.

Sky Blues striker Matty Godden looks set to miss the rest of the season, after scans have come back showing the 30 year-old has suffered a calf tear.

Matty picked up the knock during the 2-2 draw with Blackburn Rovers and whilst immediate thoughts were that the striker would return this weekend, that has now been squashed.

What is it with this team, Injuries! every bleeding year.

Just looked at some stats since he’s been here and compared them against Hyam.
19/20 played 59% of minutes available Hyam played 71%
20/21 played 34.9% minutes available Hyam played 91.8%
this season 42.6% minutes available Hyam 88.5%.
Realise striker will be substituted far more often than a defender but Hyam has nearly played as many minutes this season that Godden has done in the last two.
Frightening really how often Goddens out but also shows if we could keep him fit what he could actually achieve.

Strange though, they are not recurring injuries. Groin, foot, now calf. The appendix was just an unfortunate one-off

Why is he unhappy? From not playing or for other reasons? I'm hopeful that his boyhood club might have a look at him this summer

Good chance he will move on in summer , probably on a loan deal to enable club to recoup some wages to utilise elsewhere

Too much holding farts in, in the changing room or on the coach lol.
Amazing what polite manners bring.

I’d like Weimann here next season, not sure on wages or his contract situation though.
He seems to not be out injured much!!
Click to expand...

Hasn't he scored 15-17 goals this season? Suspect he would cost too much (wages against what rivals can offer), and with those we have on our books we wouldn't be able to afford him. Only way we will get an established forward in is if Gyo is sold (and i'm not wanting that !)
Edit: if Waghorn is moved on, as per @Skybluebeliever , then maybe that would give us more wriggle room,

Is that a fair comparison? Strikers tend to do a lot more twisting and turning…and running around generally. Therefore I’d say they’re bound to pick up more injuries?
Unless of course we turn him into the next Tyler Walker, then he’d be fine!

(I quite like Tyler Walker)

Godden has little resale value, given his age, yet is a valuable player in terms of regular goal scoring. No contest between him and Waghorn in terms of who I'd rather have around, and I wish the latter all the best if he is our player.

Some of our fans think we are the only team who has injuries. We've been fairly fortunate with our midfield - Hamer, Sheaf and Allen have been fit all season.

We were lucky until about a month ago that we have had at least 3 of our 4 CBs fit all season.

I'm sure someone will have some stats somewhere but I'm willing to put my neck on the line that we have had an average amount of injuries the difference is we have a ridiculously thin squad

Harry! I think the big boys will come sniffing around Gyokores personally! Scoring 15 goals in a weakened Championship team is remarkable just think what he could do with a premiership club or one of the relegated Premiership teams. My bet is that those scavengers Norwich will be hanging around like a bad smell. They might have a left wing back they could offer as partial payment LOL! We could get 10 to 12 mill for him.

…I guess that’s why we had a chance to sign him in the first place!

I know MR has asked to look into why we're getting these injuries, but I'd suggest an obvious place to start is the small squad and the amount of minutes the main players are being forced to play.

While the first can pretty much be laid squarely at the door of the owners, the second is largely down to that but also his reluctance to make subs and how long he takes to make them. Of course he can think that players are not quite up to it but if he keeps the first teamers on and they end up getting injured due to it, those players he doesn't trust end up playing anyway, only for far longer periods of games than giving them 15-20 minutes here and there.

In a nutshell, we need a bigger squad and MR needs to be more willing to utilise all the players at his disposal.

It's the fitness training. We are outscoring many teams and performing better than most teams in the last 10 minutes.

The consequence of that is soft tissue injuries for those who can't keep up with that training regime.

It links to the poor shooting.

Off the top of my head since the new year we've made injuries to dabo and fadz worse by continuing to play them when they were clearly injured.

What's your secret at Nottingham Forest to keep your players fit?

Up to now walker was bought for the same role and proved only as a back up to Matty and looked like a poor replacement.
Will robins stick or twist with walker ?

We’ll if Pompey don’t keep him has to be a doubt he will return as a squad member for a season unless someone else comes in for him loan or permanent.
Not pulled up many trees there but he played yesterday no goals though,

He’s getting a lot of stick from Pompey fans too which won’t be helping his already fragile confidence. Fair to say it’s been a disaster for both clubs

Really don't know the answer with Walker
He was keen to go to Pompey as he felt he wasn't getting enough game time here
But it hasn't worked so far
He looked good for us early on after he joined but since then has become predictable and must be easy to play against. Never seems to do anything out of the ordinary to keep the opposition guessing
Hope he turns it round eventually
