Injuries And Suspensions

Huge blow. But then again, I thought the top 6 chances were over when Grabbs went off against Cardiff, so I'll trust in Cooper & the squad. Rubbish news though.

Pretty gutting, think Colback has done surprisingly well at LWB and means we get Yates and Garner in CM which is good so we can cope. However Cook is such a big blow, Figs vs Liverpool is a scary prospect.

Worse than I thought for Lowe
Better than I thought for Cook

Guess it could have been worse.

Both will miss around 7 league games.

Figs, Laryea, and Panzo now need to step up

Maybe MBE Soh may get a sniff too. Or has he suffered an injury setback? Not seen him for a while but his passing between the lines would be a huge asset if fit.

Big blow but as you say - its an opportunity. We've seen davis and surridge (and the goal machine Yates) fill in for grabban, we've seen horvath grab his opprtunity so hopefully these lads will step up.

We know Colback is fine at LWB so it's only the CB to step up. Surely one of them is capable?!

This removes Lowe from my summer wishlist, too many injuries in one season for my liking.

This is a fair point, although perhaps also lowers his asking price too. Perhaps sign him alongside a younger option with a view to them overtaking him.

Hopefully !

We do seem to give the worst case scenario.

Cook for the run in is vital.

Hopefully on a month

We can't dwell on these injuries we need to keep the positive vibe going.

Plenty of options available and we are not the only team with injuries.

Yates into the back three, keep Colback in midfield and time for Richie to debut at LWB
