I'm afraid his injury record speaks for itself, I doubt we can expect anything from him pending eventual (!) fitness.

Must be very disappointing,frustrating and disheartening for the lad himself who only wants to get back to playing regularly.Sometimes in one's focus on the team one can forget the human element in such instances. There must be doubts if Wickham will ever recover sufficiently to make a positive contribution in the PL. With Benteke out until January we could only be left with Sorloth and Ayew as our recognised strikers for at least a couple of months.

Could be even worse, Roy said of Benteke ‘hopefully earlier than later in 2019’, it’s the use of the word hopefully that worries me. Gutted for Connor, looking more and more unlikely that he will ever play again.

I think the club would have insurance on players who get an injury that ends their careers so they must be able to terminate on medical grounds as long as the evidence is there which in this case it should be, especially he now seems to get injured just doing up his laces!

Perhaps the time has come for Connor to consider his future outside the game in the interests of both parties as looking increasingly likely that despite his valiant and best efforts to beat his injuries,he will never be able to return to the top flight.

not soon enough Its been a torrid couple of years for the lad, but we have to give him a chance. If we had a plethora of attacking options I might feel differently, but......well you know the rest. If he hast been able to get match fit and contribute by the end of this season, its probably time to cut ties, but he is coming off a major injury and setbacks are fairly common. Maybe by the end of this season he is our main striker. Considering he is already at the club and wont cost a fee, it would be pretty crazy to not at least roll the dice. I believe he is under contract until summer 2020.
Trump lost. Badly. Hahahahahahaha. |
