    Thought it would be nice for us to have a thread to panic in whenever a player gets injured......

    I'll get us underway with news that Niakhate is going to be out for "months" with a hamstring injury according to BBC Nottingham :(
    Will be a big loss as he has looked quality since he came in.

    That's the 2nd serious injury to someone who was likely to be a regular starter after Richards!

    The question now is, do we make use of our 2nd loan to bring in another CB or do we put faith in the brick wall of last season with Mbe Soh/Biancone as back up?

    There's 15 players signed so cover should be readily available :rofl:

    1? I thought one was signed from Atalanta or was it Sassuolo?

    Might have read it wrong.

    That was Freuler who is a CM!
    The other option from the new signings may be Biancone but he is really cover for Williams at RWB. I believe he can play in the centre as well and he may offer a bit of pace that we seem to be lacking at times, especially when our CB's are having to cover the roving full backs and coming up against pacey wingers

    Hopefully Niakhates 'months' out will actually be weeks, praying for it to be a Coops mind games but it dosen't look good

    I'd not considered that actually. Hopefully we still have that same magic sponge from last season
