another source confirms 4 wks out for pjanic http://au.eurosport.com/football/wo...alifier-against-greece_sto3651906/story.shtml thankfully no surgery is needed, just physical therapy i'd imagine
so we'll be without marcos for udinese and quite possibly parma. no big deal. as long as he's back for the derby in romagnoli we trust
marcos out for 10 days and also he got a new tattoo, looks kind of stupid imo http://romanews.eu/it,a108310/Marquinhos-Mostra-Il-Suo-Tatuaggio …
bradley was in the starting lineup tonight for the USA in their world cup qualifier against costa rica, but he had to withdraw from the game after suffering an ankle injury during warm-ups.
********ing hate international breaks. There is always someone coming back with an injury. Let's just hope it is only Bradley for now.
Anyway, if De Rossi, Strootman and Pjanic continue to play like this and avoid being red carded or injured, we are not gonna miss Bradley much - although I do admit he is a very good sub to have available... Also, we can easily move Florenzi back to the midfield...
We are very thin in midfield - neither Florenzi or Marquinho will be able to cover for Ddr or Strootman in Bradley's absence. Theoretically I guess Taddei can play there, but obviously he is far from ideal.
didnt mike miss the first 2 months of last season due to injury? I think will do without him.But yeh our midfield is thin.
Word was that although Bradley was on crutches initially, he was walking around in the second half. Rolled ankles occur often, I wouldn't be too worried. I don't expect him to play against Mexico as a precaution - but I would be surprised if he couldn't go on the 16th if needed. Shot by shot of the injury - lol
