Injuries And Suspensions

[Sniffer Dog (Admin)]

Forgive me if I have missed it bit do we know how long Grabban is out for?

I know some wont agree with me but my opinion had Grabban played we would have won yesterday.

1. I am sure that when he first got injured it was said that he will be back after the international break (but he wasn't).

2. I agree if it was the Grabban of 12 months or earlier ago but the Grabban that we have seen since the last few games of last season and so far this season I doubt he would have made any difference.

I heard early December about a month ago I think. I agree think he's a better version of Guerrero as he can finish but also still offers some of the hold up play. He did have a pretty bad month though

The Grabban, Taylor duo looked pants when they played together before. No coordination between the two at all.

I agree. When Taylor and Grabban played alongside each other Grabban didn't pass to Taylor once, Taylor only passed to Grabban on 2 occasions. They are, in a lot of ways, too similar to each other and will get in each others way. This is not a criticism of either Grabban or Taylor, just an observation

Might be worth giving them more than one game before immediately writing off that partnership

Shame we can't keep Sow fit.

Sabri tried them together in pre season and he and his staff agreed that they couldn’t work together as a pair. Too similar, moved to the same space, looked for the same pass etc.

Grabban and Guerrero haven't been played together, would seem to complement each other.

Sorry this is common knowledge is it? Or did Sabri just drop you a message? Not saying its mot true necessarily but this has definitely not been mentioned in the media.

For the record Taylor has confirmed he was signed to play alongside grabban so clearly there was hope of a successful partnership. They had half a game (admittedly poorly) and then grabban got injured. Not sure we should be writing this off just yet.

No point.
Grabban has been seemingly written off by a few on here.

Who has written Grabban off TPL?

Just look back through the various threads Sniff - very few positives.
