Agreed....and I'm not convinced about Goode yet.yes but EP not quite as good on the right imho. ( still one of best in Champ though )
I'm sure those running the gaff have a handle on it

Name namesI dont think we should think of a loan, I would much prefer we try and sign another CB that fits our profile but is ready to play in the Championship right now
I wish I could, watching games on tv is a poor way to see how good defenders are. I think it is better for forwards and some midfieldersName names![]()
Racic is temporary though isn’t it, hopefully? If so we have four Centre backs plus Dalsgaard as emergency cover which should be sufficient. Ultimately will be down to whether club feel Goode and Racic have no further ongoing fitness and illness issues.Bad news. I think we need to strengthen. If Racic is out, that’s leaves us with three CBS and Goode has been in and out. I know we don’t normally but maybe a loan?
Who fitted those?I'm more concerned about the state of his electric sockets.
How many CB's do we need - that would make 6, either loan or use the 4 we currently haveI dont think we should think of a loan, I would much prefer we try and sign another CB that fits our profile but is ready to play in the Championship right now
Perhaps, Thomas's new friend Mr Mourinho will loan us Toby Alderweireld for the rest of the season, providing Thomas agrees not to cuddle him ![/QUOTE]Racic is temporary though isn’t it, hopefully?

With injuries, suspensions, rotation during months of midweek fixtures I believe 6 is about right. 2 playing, 2 as substitutes and 2 resting or injured(hopefully not required)How many CB's do we need - that would make 6, either loan or use the 4 we currently have

The 6th would probable be just be making his first few appearances after doing well in the B team. However I dont think we have a B teamer ready yetBlimey are you sure you haven't stolen Magicbees login details![]()
I'd say 6 is a tad excessive if they are all contracted to the club
Agree, the timing was a bit of a coincidence. Are you trying to say the Dofs planned this? Surely not.....Now that Roerslev is back we can rely on Dalsgaard to cover at CB if required at times too. Wonder if we had been waiting for that before operating on Jansson.
One could get the impression they know what they are doing....Agree, the timing was a bit of a coincidence. Are you trying to say the Dofs planned this? Surely not.....
It happened yesterday and went well.Hope the op is successful. Get fit soon Pontus.
He's more injured than Pontus.What is the situation with Jeanvier could he be recalled?
Sh1t I didn't realise that!He's more injured than Pontus.
And there is also Racic back from his loan; it might not have gone great at Northampton but he looked fine in the four games I saw him play.Let's hope Norgaard's 'minor injury' doesn't need surgery too...
At least this time around we have cover for Pontus and we look just as comfortable defensively with him out of the side. He can still shout from the bench! Major worry though is it leaves us very light if one of Pinnock and Sorenson get injured and makes rotation in those positions difficult. Hopefully Goode has got over whatever his illness was and can start to show what he's about.. As mentioned above though with Roerslev fit, Dalsgaard can always step inside if need be... Wouldn't be averse to a loan though for the rest of the season to tide us over?
Except of course I now recall why he might have come back; back injury, so might not be fit.And there is also Racic back from his loan; it might not have gone great at Northampton but he looked fine in the four games I saw him play.
Indeed. He actually looked rather good.And there is also Racic back from his loan; it might not have gone great at Northampton but he looked fine in the four games I saw him play.
If we want to rotate the back four then we’ve got issues. And if we pick up a suspension or injury then.... You’d assume that we knew this was possible when we let Thompson go out on loan so presumably there’s a plan..We now have only 6 fit and experienced defenders even if you include Goode in that. Suggestions that Dalsgaard can play CB or Rasmussen LB if necessary doesn't change the need for more bodies
We now have only 6 fit and experienced defenders even if
You could say that about 6 or 7 other positions. You could argue the same about Toney, Henry, Janelt, Mbeumo etc etc. What do you propose bringing in 5 new players to sit on the bench if any injuries are picked up? I can tell you it's not going to happen, and won't happen at any other club either. IMO we are well covered with the exception of a couple of positions, where I believe we can make do. I am not against more players coming in but afraid this the reality of the situation.One season-ending injury now in central defence would be quite likely to derail our promotion push. That's not a position we should leave ourselves in
From what little I've seen, he certainly looks a good prospect.Indeed. He actually looked rather good.
It’s a difficult one as when he is fit, his presence is invaluable. Although as you say, he has missed a lot of football, especially given his position.i'll probably get pelters but i think we should sell him in the summer as he has a year left on his contract come july , he missed 14 or 15 games last season due to injury and before this op he'd missed 6 or 7 games through injury and now most of the rest of the season is a right off.he isn't getting any younger and not going to miraculously become less injury prone and this will be the last summer we can get a decent transfer fee for him.
