The Havertz's Knee Memorial Injury Thread

Claudius

Gotta have Partey. The midfield is a dead zone.

QuincyAbeyie

Definitely.

Sicario

New Year Partey

How is Martinelli’s injury? He could be Diaby 2.0 :-(

KingslandBarge

Any good feeling from the result is dampened by the feedback from Arteta, saying 'its not looking good'. Let's see. A bunch of physiotherapy specialists on twitter said it looked mild. Having him back brought a sense of excitement to this campaign like nothing else has for me. Would marginally lose interest if he's out for a while.

It didn't look that bad to me. It looked like a sprain. Extremely painful in the moment, but hopefully not much to worry about long term. I really hope that's the case anyway.

Cedric The Entertainer did it as well. Except worse. Shrugged his shoulders and got on with things

Sicario

I’m less confident about the Martinelli injury this morning.

On his insta stories he has reposted loads of players wishing him as well as if it was a long term injury.

Also this:

I hope I’m wrong.

Big Willie

In any case I'm happier now that Arteta has confirmed that it's an ankle problem rather than a recurrence of his knee. Hopefully it's short term.

KingslandBarge

Main output for a successful season for Holding, Bellerin and Tierney is that they are fit and available for selection for the most part. If they fall short I would develop a gradual replacement plan. There is just no room for that kind of disruption for a club and squad trying to finds its way again.

Especially with Tierney, I hope this isn't going to be the defining part of his time here because his big potential is there.

Bad news for Mari as he will be out for "the next few matches" acorrding to Arteta. We have Gabriel back so we can cope but shame for him as he was playing very well.

Qwiss

We need to be more careful with Tierney, this is a warning Arteta needs to take seriously.

goon

Such bad luck for Mari, he may help have kept Gabriel out of the team. At least he proved himself to an extent.

Claudius

Help Gabriel out of the team?
You don't like Gabi?

goon

Oops, the help wasn't supposed to be there. I actually would have but Gabriel back in anyway, but I wouldn't have been outraged otherwise.

Claudius

Yeah. Left side of defense has been sorted out rather quickly. Now on to the right.

MistaT

Personally, I'm excited to have Gabriel back in the team. I liked what Mari provided, but I thought Gabi was playing at a higher level earlier this year.

goon

Orny says Tierney should be back soon, the reckon the discomfort is most likely just fatigue. Wheatley says Partey was taken off as a precaution too and should be back soon.

Gazza M

i'm a bit worried about thomas tbh. i've seen enough to know he can give any midfield in this league hell when he's physically up to it, but seems to wane around the 60-70 minute. perhaps he was able to dominate in spain with his stamina, but in order for him to dominate in the epl there's simply more sprints and physicality required, and even someone as physically gifted as him takes time to adapt.

Klaus

Hopefully he's just behind physically because we hasn't had a chance to adapt yet. We bought him in the dying seconds of the transfer window which was a bit stupid; if he'd come over earlier he would have had at least some preseason to prepare him for life in Premier League. And then he got injured almost immediately and has been in and out of the team since then. Not a lot of opportunities to work on upping his fitness when he needs to put in work just to compensate for what he's losing by not playing.
