Not sure about the 3 at the back...
I always wonder with training ground goals, whether the GK's are told to 'go easy' in order to give strikers confidence... and if so, is this counter productive, as it will make them (Kane) feel like they ae better than they actually are!!
...so no then, the GK's probably don't go easy!
Jordan Archer's gash isn't he!!!??

Any news on the Walker injury yet ? also why was Andros not on the bench on saturday ?
Anyone else keep wondering why our players disappear for a few months when injured? New physios in i think
Yup, Like I said in the Summer Transfer thread, players are initially assessed and supposed to be out for 3-4 weeks, end up being 3-4 months. What the fuck are they doing?
OK Chief!!
I was genuinely interest to know what those are (were)
Timmy just said that Erik's thigh strain has forced him to overcompensate and now his back i strained..."he may be out for a while as well"
Where the fuck is Sandro!!??
Our squad seems to have a one in one out policy at the moment. We finally get vertonghen back an now chiriches is out for 6 fucking weeks. Lennon back to fitness and lamela out for god knows how long. Capoue back, Sandro out. Can anyone tell me when we were last able to field a truly fully strength first 11. I think it was some time in 2009
The mystery surrounding injuries is interesting to me. In the NFL, a player gets hurt and they've got bone structure graphics showing EXACTLY what's happened, a doctor talking about recovery, a player talking about his experience with it, yadda yadda...
BPL?
Thigh Injury...
Knee Injury...
Knock...
Wtf? No wonder everyone's pissed.

I suspect the lack of info and generic descriptions is largely not to give the opposition any insights. Also, perhaps making an injury public may lower a players value when they are to be sold.
Having said that when info is released everyone becomes an expert, just look at the Lloris head injury, in the press for weeks. When Rooney broke a metatarssel, 99% of the football world in England spoke of nothing else, no one had ever heard of a metatarssel. On reflection I prefer "a knock".
