No big loss really in the grand scheme of things, also for me Werner is above him in selection
You’re right. We brought him in on a loan in August.Steaming in a little late with the correction here but no he wasn't, GLC was brought in by Poch in the summer TW roughly 6 months prior to Eriksen leaving in the January TW under Mourinho.
You're welcome.
Made the deal permanent the day Eriksen left, Jan 28.
He clearly had a serious injury as he was predicted to be out for a long time from day one..... That doesn't make him "fragile".
Injured right at the start of October, so its 4 months (bar a few days) out already.
Yes a serious injury, thought to be meniscus - hope he's better asap
Seemed to be injured and/or on bench for Fulham last season too.
So he's a worry that he might be injury prone.
Depth and quality are different things though.
it was a meniscus tear and it was reported that he would face up to 2 months out. He had surgery on October the 5th meaning early December is when most would be back from this sort of injury. We are a couple days away from February with no return date set.
"The Israel international had surgery as well and is slated to return to action in mid January after a lengthy rehabilitation."
Tottenham player Solomon injury update shared by doctor
Tottenham Hotspur attacker Manor Solomon faces a risky return to first-team action post his meniscus injury, according to Dr Rajpal Brar.
"The doctors will either have removed the damaged part of the tissue in the knee or will have repaired it but if they did the former, it could mean the timeline for the 24-year-old’s return is reduced, but it could also pose a risk for future setbacks."
Manor Solomon has now had his third operation in two years on his knee missing almost half a season in both years. I think it is time to write him off as being one of the players whom will always have injuries and just sell him in the summer for whatever we can get.
I think it's un-necessary for the fans (in their limited insight and medical capacity) to be writing him off...........
He's 24. People heal and medical procedures improve all the time.
He is not a top tier player that is guaranteed a start when fit so in my view with the injuries and his parroting of the Israeli government propaganda it is not worth the trouble he is to keep him at the club.
Think your first point is stronger than your second.
"Injuries" (plural)....
This is his first injury for us. If his previous injury history was a concern we wouldn't have signed him in the first place.
He's been here 5 mins. Binning him off at this point would be fickle and a bad look for us as a club.
I'd give him until Jan to prove himself at least (football-wise; not as a reflection of his injury record)....... He looked decent to begin with.
