    It looked like a probable tear of his ankle ligaments. Could be anywhere between a few weeks and a few months out depending on how bad the tear was.

    Thought it was the top of the foot? Well, the face if you get me, i.e. metatarsal area?

    It looked like he just fell on it funny, bit of ice and rest it for a week? He continued on which is a good thing.



    Whats the story with Anderson? our favourite son. Does he even get into the match squad or play with the reserves?

    He might have done more damage because he continued.

    Shaw went over on his ankle- ya could see it on the replay. Hopefully just stretched his ligament rather than a tear.

    Is he not on loan with Fiorentina?

    I'd say it's just a sprain, should be 50/50 for the weekend.

    Howard Webb defending wilshires headbutt. Said Mike dean can understand why he didn't book him!!

    Absolute bollix.

    Neville and carragher can't believe it.

    Agreed, fellaini did him a favour. If he goes down and starts Rolling around then it's a straight red. He shouldn't have a do that though for the referee to take action.

    Web talking absolute bollox there, won't admit that Dean ****ed up that Wilshere incident, Carragher was in disbelief with the **** he was coming out with, as was Neville towards the end. What's the point of him going on tv if he's just going to defend all his colleagues even when they had a stinker, just grow a pair and admit it

    On 6 August 2014, the Premier League announced that Webb had retired from active refereeing in order to take up the role of technical director of the Professional Game Match Officials Board.

    Webb obviously isn't going to criticise his buddies. Being a Premier League ref must be one the most protected positions in the world.

    Brendan Rodgers is a brilliant manager (!)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 19,889 ✭✭✭✭The Moldy Gowl


    Brenda or davey m? They are both very similar.

    Not sure who I would prefer

    I thought it was the ankle, open to correction though.

    Talk of him going on loan to Gremio in January with a view to them signing him, anyone can sign him at the end of the season anyway so make the most of our "midfield magician" while you can

    Could have been, just how it looked to me at the time. I saw it first and thought he rolled his ankle, then on the replay I thought he came down on awkwardly and damaged his foot, knowing our luck its probably both actually now I think about it.

    I heard he got offered a role as Norma out of Shameless, so he might stay in Manchester after all

    Southampton drawing tonight. Some order being restored hopefully.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,134 ✭✭✭✭Rayne Wooney


    I fully expect them to drop to 7th or 8th after the next 9 games, they have had a cushy run so far

    Us twice, Arsenal twice, City, Chelsea and Everton coming up

    I expect the wheels to start coming off over the next couple of months.

    That was different though, they were well tested by this stage last season.

    Fair play to Southamption. I'd rather see them there than a lot of other teams.

    Irrelevant. They're second in November and they haven't spent next or near what teams are expected to when in the top four at any point in the season. Is anyone expecting them to destroy the Chelseas, Citys or United of this world? No, but we can appreciate what they've done having lost their best players.....apparently.
