Igor Thiago

[TorbayBee]

Is he alive ?

What a strange thing to post. Are you alright this morning?

 

[maddogging]

What a strange thing to post. Are you alright this morning?

more the fact another press conference has come and gone and not a mention of our record signing and how he is, that was all

 

[BuzzingBee95]

They seem to be a dying breed in the modern game.

Well said, I agree. When you think that Arsenal, for example, could actually do with having someone like Chris Wood up top, goes to show that sometimes the old and tested ways are still applicable today.

 

[Greybeard]

A well delivered cross aimed at a strong player who is good in the air is still one of the best ways of beating a packed defence.

 

[Simon W]

We’ve all taken the piss out of Chris Wood over the years, so it’s a bit annoying he’s scoring quite a few this season! ?

 

[WouldYouBeeliveIt]

Was he there today?

I was sat behind the dugout and didn’t see him there (Josh Da Silva was and other players rested e.g. Norgaard and Janelt) although may have been in directors box or elsewhere

 

[Beeswaxnees]

I think TF will keep his return low key, very hush hush without a date line, like he did with Rico which was a welcome surprise for most.

 

[vcmazz]

"Weeks" would be good news!

Exactly. I remember how gutted we were when we told Aaron, Rico and Josh would be out for years.

 

[vcmazz]

Games like today and Forest at home are where we miss him most. Our attack is fantastic when we can get in behind but seems to struggle whenever anyone sits deep and gives us no space. So many crosses into the box with no real target to aim for.

How can we miss him? We don't even know if he's any good yet. ?‍

 

[TOXIC BEE]

I could’ve said we missed Ivan if you like? It’s not specifically about how good he is, more the profile of the player and him offering something completely different up top.

Trimmed beard, smiling, standing comfortably, no socks. Interested what the medical and psychological experts on here make of that.

 

[taxi driver]

The beard trimming has disappointed me a little ?

That's got to be photoshopped? It looks like he has prosthetic legs! ?

Apart from the fact that he is stationary and we can’t tell if he’s got full mobility of his injured knee, he’s wearing the trademark Thiago ‘smile’ which I think is a good sign.

It must be a bit draughty around his ankles, though. Perhaps, it’s in tribute to the late passing of a pet? It could be he’s still growing - he’s only 23 - or he’s wearing Bryan’s trousers!

Big feet

They’re not feet, they’re yards

Would prefer to see him in full kit, but at least it's an upgrade on the wheelchair in tesco

 

[davidharris]

Those must be the big shoes people said he had to fill.

 

[toeneebee]

Looks like his feet are chained together at the back? Not good!

 

[North London Bee]

Looking good. On the way back??

 

[ruislip bee]

You'd think he could afford trousers that actually fit!

 

[Deanos196]

Far too cold for shorts

 

[BAGSHOTBEE]

Orthapedic shoes!

 

[bees1984]

Scrawny ankles

Especially the right one!

 

[ruislip bee]

I've nothing against his right ankle. Trouble is.............

 

[badgerbee]

He stands corrected....

What a smile,but what are those on his feet ?

Very disappointed in how the players are dressing these days. We really need Big Tel to come back in a double breasted club blazer and tie. No nonsense ?

A very nice cashmere overcoat. Glad the lad’s keeping himself warm in these un-Brazilian temperatures.

I'm never EVER forgetting that photo ??

 

[Bigbee]

I know no one knows when he'll be back , maybe not even Tom , but does any one know when he maybe back ? I'm excited and frustrated about him !

 

[grepo]

Do we even know which joint was infected? Presumably the knee that was operated, in which case that may not bode well for an early return.

 

[W5BeesFan]

When I first saw the news I thought it was something he'd been smoking...

My daughter in law had infection of a knee a couple of years ago and it took near a year to get better , bloody hope not for Igor sake and ours

Now thats just silly….everyone knows it’s the hubba bubba pipe they use..?

 

[LongLostBee]

Just part of the hierachy. Every goal you score gives you a week off from trimming.

 

[LongLostBee]

I'm hoping he looks like this by May...
(err that image went a bit bigger than intended!)

 

[Sheerwater Bee]

He won't be back at 100% until the start of next season and a whole injury free pre-season. Just in time to replace Wissa, who'll be off in the summer

Add a stetson and loan him to ZZ Top for 6m?

We'll need to recruit another striker as well. Clearly we cant pin next seasons hopes on a player who is uproven at this level and may or may not be fit.

 

[Isleworth_Bee]

Would never have thought that when he got Injured that he would end up missing most of the season.

 

[Beezy]

Was he there today?

Yes. I saw him. He’s gone clean shaven hence I think another poster who must sit near me didn’t see him.

 

[Doovster]

I agree we'll need to buy if potentially Wissa and Mbeumo both depart in the summer. But we're unlikely to get a 'proven' PL striker to replace him. All of our strikers have been 'unproven' at this level until they have effectively 'proven' themselves, that includes Toney, Mbeumo and Wissa, none of whom had played in the PL before.
