Jonny Injury

[SanFranWolf]

Looks like he tweaked his medial collateral ligament to me.

If it’s just a tweak he might be lucky...

Fingers crossed.

Does anyone have an update?

 

[Mrs E]

Waiting on the dr Nuno said - I think they fly on Sunday so chance to access it before then.

 

[paulhick]

That diagnosis is superb. Yome fantastic.

 

[Incognito]

I criticised Jonny first half of the season, probably unfairly, because he's actually had a good season. Too big a game to risk him if carrying an injury.

 

[Keyser Soze]

The leg brace looked scary... but the fact he was standing on it and part of the huddle, and not rush to hospital more promising

Maybe its precautionary, but at the same time Nuno said 'not good'

Sounds like the tweak of the ligaments is more accurate, which would probably be a couple of weeks if we had to guess. So if we get past Sevilla outside chance of the Semi Final and back for the final?

Complete guesswork based on subjective evidence but I'm hopefully its not too bad, but out of the next one most likely

 

[Nige100]

See you next season I think if its ligaments not worry the risk with only a short break between seasons

 

[Wolfheart]

He certainly won’t be playing Tuesday that’s for sure.

Massive shame as he is one player who has experience against Spanish clubs and players and will know some of these guys.

But, who knows.

 

[sheffwolf]

Just wait and see. The knee brace will be precautionary until they can assess it properly. He walked off the pitch ok.

True and he would not have been allowed in the huddle if it was serious.

 

[sedgwolf1980]

A huge blow if he’s out for a while, but at the same time maybe Vinagre can come in and be a hero. He clearly has something about him, in it quite sure myself personally, but if ever the stage was set to become a proper player, this is it.

 

[USA Wolf]

Can’t see him being able to contribute with (hopefully) three games against Europe’s best in 11 days after going down with a non contact injury. I love being wrong, though

 

[SingYourHeartsOut]

There have been times when I'd rather have had Vinagre out there than Jonny, I don't think Seville is one though. Still great chance for the kid to show his worth and that he has developed defensively!

 

[B63 Wolf]

He got into his car wearing a knee brace and using crutches this morning. Could be off for a check up.

 

[Elvis Wolf]

If Venagre has to be drafted in, fingers crossed he's not targeted like he was v Olympiacos.
Having said that, I wouldn't bet against him, knuckling down and doing the business for us.

 

[JOSWolf]

If Jonny is out do we take one of the u23 lads to Germany for some back up? Heard good reports about Lewis Richards who can play left wing back or centre back.

You could but they'd never get on in a million years. Even if three more defenders got injured, he'd just change shape and keep the most senior players on the field.

Strange one as Jonny clearly said to Nuno he's "fine" at the end of the game, which was caught on TV and I watched it back to make sure I saw it right, but then his leg is in a brace and Nuno's apparently said "not good".

He was just popping out to grab a bottle of Gin.

Just think it would be good for options and a great experience for one of the young lads like Richards and also for training purposes. Really hope Jonny is ok but cant see there is any chance he will figure for us in Germany.

 

[NewarkWolf]

He won't take any further part our European adventure imo

 

[Monketron]

Even a minor strain of a ligament takes weeks to heal, he's probably done for the season unless it was a small muscle strain.

 

[B63 Wolf]

He was just popping out to grab a bottle of Gin.

He lives next door to my mother in law so that’s highly likely!

 

[North West Wanderer]

He needs surgery, Richards has been called up.

 

[Tring Wolf]

ACL. 6 months out.

Awful news. Wishing you a full and speedy recovery Jonny.

 

[Darvo]

Jeez ... that’s a big blow. Get well soon Jonny.

 

[wolvesaywe]

This 6 month period coming up has to be the making of Vinagre.

His progress has stalled but I think he's the type of player who needs games.

 

[North West Wanderer]

So, left backs.....

 

[Deleted member 5910]

We definitely need a LWB now. That's bad, bad news for something that looked quite innocuous.

 

[Aimless Balls]

Brutal.

 

[Monketron]

We need to sign a left-back then. We can't just go with Vinagre and no backup for half a season.

 

[JOSWolf]

He needs surgery, Richards has been called up.

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

 

[Netherton Wolf]

Gutted for him & us

Unucky Jonny

 

[JOSWolf]

Get well soon Jonny. Gutting news. We will have to sign a new left wing back now.

 

[Tojo the grass]

Bad news , get well soon Jonny, we definitely need to recruit a wing back now even if it’s a loan.
A big opportunity for Ruben in the meantime.

 

[Monketron]

Announce new left wing back!

I imagine it will be someone who can play both flanks, as we need back up for Doc too. Sanderson and Matheson aren't there yet.

 

[Deleted member 5910]

Loan approach for Zinchenko?

 

[SA Wolf]

Worst news for such an important match. Hope Nuno doesn't play Vinagre as he's been very poor lately. Perhaps Saiss can cover with Dendoncker coming into back 3.
Whichever way Nuno goes, Jonny will be a crucial miss.

 

[SA Wolf]

Maitland-Niles anyone?

Thank god you're not the manager

 

[Matt]

Really bad news. I would have been in for a LWB this summer anyway, but this makes it a must. Hopefully Matheson is up to backing up Doc on the right for 6 months.
