A couple of sources on twitter reporting that awoniyi is out for 'months'. Really hope this isn't the case. Could explain why we are looking for a short term deal for Chris wood though...

As well as Awoniyi
Yates will probably return this weekend
Lingard out for probably 2/3 more weeks
Henderson out for at least a month
I don't think Coopers said much about Koytate, Boly, Niakhate and Richards but don't expect them anytime soon
Biancone out for the season
Wood and especially Danjuma would be good additions but perhaps an argument to sign a CB too if Boly is out for a while

We can't sign another central defender just because we've got a few injuries surely? We've got seven already! If Awoniyi is injured, then that's what Dennis is for, or has he been written off already? Wood looks like it's happening though, I've just heard those two boring blokes on Sky Sports who go on on and on and on about transfers talking about it. What the latest on Niakhate? He was supposedly close to being back in training before the World Cup  |

He can go back to Watford, but no other club in Europe. Richards is the strange one for me. We signed him but didn't realise he had an airline fracture in his leg. This normally takes 6-8 weeks to recover from, yet 5 months later and he's still nowhere near fit. |

He was supposedly close to being back in training before the World Cup Why wouldn't we use the loan market to cover for injuries? It depends on Boly and Niakhate really, but if they're out for another 2/3 months then that's an awful lot of games for McKenna and Worrall to play. I wouldn't fancy our chances if one of those got injured/suspended and we had to bring in Cook or Mbe Soh. |

Well, no, me neither but that's what they're for isn't it? Nobody is going to be that happy with their fifth or sixth choice player in any position but if they're not able to come in and play a couple of games if needed there seems little point in them even being at the club...
Just had a google and found a recent article, which I couldn't read without an account, but the headline was Niakhate and Richards back in full training in two weeks. Although I seem to remember reading a similar thing a couple of months ago, so I won't hold my breath...

If true we have more than enough defenders. |
