Henderson is quad/thigh injury (the same one he had a bad injury with last season and reason Nottm F didn't sign him) but i take your point.

It seems that a lot of clubs have got players out with hamstring injuries. Players seem to have muscle imbalance as they do so much work on front of legs and not the back.

The only positive I can take from this is that things are getting so ridiculous that Parish must see that the depth of the squad is dire.

We just need Roy to stop bloody winning games that we shouldn't be winning when half our squad is crocked.

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold...

Well he hasn’t up until now, has he! Apparently our squad is strong enough

More likely, 4-3-3 Richards in at CH next to Guehi. Andersen picks up Lerma’s spot alongside Doucoure Hughes and a front 3 of Ayew, Mateta, Schlupp.

Of the players we have available, that will work and still present a threat going forward.

I think Andersen is too slow to play in midfield, plus we shouldn't mess about with our strongest asset at the moment, that being the Guehi and Andersen partnership. Evening Standard reporting that Eduoard should be back for Saturday so it may be he just comes straight in for Eze.

I actually think he would make a good defensive midfielder as he is ok in the air and has good passing ability but I think it’s a moot point if Edouard is back. Roy will stick with senior players no matter what unless forced to do otherwise, so Ozoh will have to wait as well.
