Stokes Injury (4 Viewers)

With all the panic over Reda, I can't find any news on Stokes. He went down in the last few minutes last night and was unable to finish the match.

Looked possibly like a hamstring problem?

We could do without losing another member of our solid defence so soon after losing Reda. Haynes coming in wouldn't fill me with too much confidence I'm afraid.

would like haynes to get more game time, think his potential is wasted as it is, although id rather see him at left mid

Specs WT-R75 · Oct 21, 2015

I think it would be very risky to play both Phillips and Haynes in the same side (as LB/RB). Ricketts preferred position is LB apparently... would just need another CB then... Bryn Morris, Harries.... Matty Pennington etc.

Lets hope Stokes is okay...

Yeah looked like a hamstring injury, hopefully just a slight strain and a few days rest may cure. Thought stokes was excellent last night, great in 1 on 1 defending situations and tenacious in every challenge. Would be a big miss

Sure I saw Stokes say it was just cramp on Twitter.

Agree - thought Phillips was poor last night, looked to be lacking confidence on the ball and also never got tight to his man in the final third

Phillips and Haynes would be a tad worrying I would say. Let's hope Stokes is okay. He's been very solid.

Would say Martin, myself. Thought Stokes did okay last season, but that Martin was dreadful. This season he has been like a different player entirely.

I thought Phillips played ok last night. Didn't do much wrong bearing in mind had Armstrong a striker as cover did well. I thought he would be a weak link last night but didn't do much wrong

No time for that! I have a home to get to (and a phone to charge. Not sure it could take much more than I already put it through )

I'd echo that. Thought Stoke did well last season, which is why he was offered a contract to come as first choice left back. The only thing that has improved is his fitness. Martin for me struggled last season and has been impressive since he's come back in. I'd also out fleck in that category, having Vincelot protecting him has improved his game no end.

I'd question whether he successfully completed a forward pass last night, there were a few where he wasn't under tremendous pressure either. He certainly grew into the game and I'm not knocking the lad too much, but he's had better games.

Flecks been outstanding. Player of the season so far for me.

Philips is capable of attacking brilliance like his goals vs wolves and Exeter. Right now he's very tentative though. Needs some confidence
