End of the season or end of the year? I wouldn't be too shocked if it's before the end of the season!

Surely season? End of the year is the game on Sunday like.

Be nice To see him back.

Big Pussy Bonpensiero

If it is the end of the season we're far better releasing him imo. We're long past the stage where we're missing him, and I dont think he would start even if he gets fit. I'd say he's on >50 grand a week too.

Know primary purpose of thread is to keep track but - Have been questioning whats causing all the injuries as we seem to have had so many. Is it the training regime, the extra CL games or just pure bad luck. Any thoughts.

Mine thinking is that the training regime has to have something to do with it

A lot of hamstring injuries too. Lennon just back from one and van der vaart suffering with them since he arrived! Btw cant believe i only found this thread now...coys!

yeah the similar injuries add weight to the training issue theroy

welcome btw

Hatch99

Bad luck I reckon. Too many experts involved these days to say that it could be down to training regime, or I hope so anyway.

Other big clubs have had similar injury experiences.

If only this was the case. Its quite a contentious issue at the moment amongst strength and conditioning coaches. Many of the fitness coaches are regarded as old school and not conditioning the players properly for the demands of the game. Aerobically fit but without the adequate strength and mobility in the common sites of injury.

Houllier,s regime at villa resulted in a big increase in muscle injuries, he introduced double training sessions.
Too many intensive training sessions and not enough recovery is a recipe for disaster.

This guy is a controversial character but is on the pulse in my opinionhttp://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/teams/c/cardiff_city/9256151.stm

Big Pussy Bonpensiero

O' Hara came through training today with the reserves unscathed. Should be back to full fitness so in 2-3 weeks, welcome return.

Looks like Ledley is out for the rest of the season after aggravating a groin injury in training yesterday.

Cianan2

Apparently it was with the last kick of the ball in training too. Reckon this spells the end of the King?

SuprSi

I think it should. I know King is a brilliant defender, but we need to start thinking about a defensive pairing for the immediate future, and in my view that's Dawson and Kaboul. These two need to be played together as often as possible and unless unfit, should always be considered our main defensive duo. If not Dawson and Kaboul, then Gallas and one of them so that the other can learn from Gallas. The constant questions over whether King will come back into the team can't help the existing, fit defenders.

Well it will free up a space in our squad of 25 I'd imagine

Becks went down injured this morning, worries over how Galaxy would react, turned out to be a blister... lol

O'Hara and Woody came through 45 minutes today

Good news - Jonathan Woodgate and Jamie O'Hara both back from injury and played 45 minutes for our Spurs XI v QPR this afternoon.

from twitter

It was Woody's first action since November, 2009. We won 9-2 - Keane (2), Gio (2), Mason, Kranjcar, Byrne, Dawkins, Luongo on target.

Bad news indeed. I think we've missed his accurate passing in some games.

Kaboul ballixed now too. Big loss as I thought he was doing very well when he got a few games on the bounce a while back.

Tottenham Hotspur defender Ledley King is to undergo an operation on his groin on Wednesday.

The club's defensive problems continue to mount as manager Harry Redknapp confirmed he is "nowhere near" being able to play.

Hatch99

Younes Kaboul has today (Tuesday) undergone surgery on his right knee.‬

‪It is anticipated that the French defender will return to training in four weeks.‬

Hatch99

Luka Modric has undergone surgery to remove his appendix.

The Croatia midfielder was diagnosed with acute appendicitis after contacting our medical staff complaining of abdominal discomfort and is likely to be sidelined for around two weeks.

everdead.ie

Our squad just got very small in the last few weeks.

golfball37

If Luka is out of the San Siro we need to play 2 defensive midfielders in there to avoid what happened against Inter, YBB & Fulham. Even a 1 goal deficit is looking good at this stage?

Terrible blow losing our best player at this juncture.

Hatch99

As for Pienaar... the other South African [Bongani Khumalo] thought his head was the ball and knocked him unconscious in training."

Ledleys clubbing starting to tell I wonder?

very sloppy in fairness. ud wonder if he wants to play any more at this stage

Hatch99

Gobshi*e..

Big Pussy Bonpensiero

I doubt it's because of clubbing tbh, 1. because he looks about 30 so it's not as if he needs it, and 2. He Ledley fcuking King, no club would turn away a premiership footballer even if he was 17..

Anyone know the latest on Bale ?

Back for the weekend bar any complications or set backs we are hoping he's rested for Wales midweek. Hopefully the break does him the world of good as well.

Hatch99

Ledley King has undergone groin surgery in Germany this morning (Tuesday).

Our club captain will fly back home later today and is expected to return to training in two weeks

Is there a website that shows our missing players and ETA on when they'll be match fit? Like on a handy one page layout?

Hopefully, but they reported Bale had a bit of a setback when his training was upped.

Reported with a tight calf so maybe hel start with a view to taking him off?

Whats the word on Charlie after that woeful tackle last night?

Hatch99

Jonathan Woodgate has sustained a strain of the left Adductor muscle, a scan has confirmed this evening (Wednesday, February 16).

The centre-back suffered the injury after coming on as a substitute in last night's Champions League Round of 16 victory over AC Milan and will now be assessed over the coming days.
