Wouldn't be at all surprised if we drop points here while Newcastle pull away for sixth. Quite, bo****ks to all this optimism - I blame it on the youngsters who haven't quite yet learned to be the manic depressives that our football club have turned the older ones into. 😉 If you're not in the 'older ' category - apologies.

Bison Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 Amazing news. I hope for his sake he's made a full recovery and has not rushed the process because he wants to be at the Euros. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This makes me nervous because I do worry he's doing exactly what you've suggested, trying to get back in time for the Euros. I understand from a personal level why he would want to do that, I just hope he is ready to play for us and if he does end up getting picked, is actually ready to cope with a summer of football. If he gets this comeback wrong, then that could be it for him at this level. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
My Blood Is Blue Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 I think we'll see: Petrovic Gusto - Chalobah - Silva - Cucurella Gallagher - Caicedo Madueke - Palmer - Mudryk Jackson I think Silva will play today, get a rest in the week and then play his final game next weekend. I am really interested to see what impact having Gusto (or James) at right back will do for the role Cucurella has been playing. Can Cucurella move into the inverted midfield role as often, if Gusto/James are bombing forward? Will they rotate between the right back and Cucurella doing it? Looking forward to it... I hope.

Just looking it up now De Bruyne had hamstring surgery in August and made his return in January. I think Reece has has had a longer recovery process so maybe we're being overly cautious. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d like to think we are, because you would hope the surgeon, medical team and coaching staff wouldn’t let him come back before he’s definitely ready.

Fingers crossed! Yeah surely there’s more governance and rigour around this sort of thing than simply Reece says he is ready to play again?! 1 hour ago, Bison said: Just looking it up now De Bruyne had hamstring surgery in August and made his return in January.

Reece had surgery the week before Christmas so the two feel similar in terms of recovery time… 4-5 months ish 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cynicism was bred into me during the intervening years 😃 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Blood Is Blue Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 Tottenham win, meaning Burnley relegated. Luton lose, meaning they are essentially relegated, barring a massive goal difference swing. This means Forest are safe, which must help us today, especially as we also know that Newcastle have dropped points. This is a big game for us. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
