CL games start this week. Thread is up for match commentary. https://www.bigsoccer.com/threads/the-2024-25-champions-league-match-thread.2132554/
And here we go .... Olmo out 4-5 weeks with hamstring injury. Nothing that's good can last can it ? I guess we kind of expected it. https://www.barcablaugranes.com/202...ni-olmo-blow-as-club-confirm-hamstring-injury
Saw that one coming 10,000 miles away. Really, ANYONE could have seen this coming, except for Laporta and Deco, apparently.
Yeah, that sucks. Right before 2 tough away matches. At least Pedri is back playing, and FdJ and Gavi are in training.
Yep. This is that @Khan and I meant regarding Olmo. Great player, moves the needle, but just too injury prone… SMH.
So, FDJ and Gavi are also back in group training. Fermin maybe back vs Monaco. Then, Araujo and Christensen next. Keep stacking wins, keep getting healthier. Olmo? He gets back whenever he gets back.
Damn. https://barcauniversal.com/official...youngsters-latest-injury-and-recovery-period/ Get back soon, Fermin. Guille and Tony, come on down!
OTOH, here's a promising development: https://www.barcablaugranes.com/202...e-de-jong-return-date-after-training-comeback
This is one reason why its key to grab a lead early, and to rotate in games: https://www.espn.com.au/football/st...ing-ac-milan-man-united-spurs-chelsea-maresca
Frenkie de Jong is expected to get the medical green light tomorrow and should be available on tuesday vs Young Boys.
