rumours now
that he could be out for six months and so panic setting in as we have no proper cover for that part of the team....we all new that it just seems the management don't!! all this nonsense about a must have marqee striker signing will hopefully be put onhold as we need real cover in both fullback areas......or are we going to see ogbonna pushed out there and nordvelt in the centre?
ffs... one player we could
