    That's pretty much how I feel about Pog's Covid diagnosis. Him having to quarantine means 2 extra weeks off.
    As long as he's safe at home (in regards to his family), don't imagine it will be this big thing for him and he'll get over it soon enough.

    COVID will be the new "picked up a knock in training" just before an international break

    Laird had to come off from today's U21 EFL Trophy game vs Salford City with what looks like a hamstring pull.
    A shame if it is the case since he was earmarked to go out on loan...

    Wasn't he working out the whole time?

    Some good news here.

    Badly need him to hold up and remain as injury free as possible this term.

    Actually relieved his injury didn't end up sidelining him for too long but here's hoping he can remain avoid missing any significant time for the foreseeable future, so he can go on a long, consistent run.

    If Laird is fit, hopefully he gets a run out in the EFL cup.

    Bailly appears to have picked up what looks like a hamstring injury in IC's draw vs Belgium...

    Edit: Last thing the team needs right now but on the plus, it could be an opportunity for either Tuanzebe (timely return) and/or Mengi to step up.

    Bailly may / may not be injured, but definitely some truth in this.

    Feels a bit vague, can’t blame Ole for not giving much away I guess.

    Good thing we bought some cover at RW. We'll be fine. Its not like our entire right flank is reliant on the fitness and form of a 19 year old striker with less than a season at the senior level with the only other real RW being a kid from a championship team that no other PL team wanted because hes not good enough. Because there's no way a BILLION dollar club would be that incompetent.

    Right? Right!

    Zero hope he can be decent and have career at OT.

    That finally explains his absence, in the sense that he's not out with an actual injury (this is a guy who missed just 15gms in his career and is pretty durable).
    Question now is when he was diagnosed with the virus: probably won't be available until the Everton game at the earliest...

    Shame for Shaw who had a good game today. However, this was always likely with him given his history.
    It's Telles time after the break: that's why we've got him.
