Oh, a history of Achilles problems. I didn’t realise. That’s not good to have. He’s probably lost a lot of speed and confidence. Not one to pin any hopes on after that. Watching him systematically kicked by a bunch of thugs was sickening. Those Sheffield teams are both disgustingly cynical and dirty.Genuinely the idea that we had signed a crocked injury prone player is one that needs to be debunked. This is his stats for the two seasons prior to joining us:

In 2021/22 he made 38 appearances totalling 1982 minutes (an average of 52 mins per game)
In 2022/23 he made 41 appearances totalling 2763 minutes (an average of 67 mins per game)
Here is his total career injury history:

impossible to risk putting him on the pitch.
Doing a little bit of research, the original Achilles problem that he had surgery on was not the same one that got ruptured with us back in 2023. On the weight of evidence it was a perfectly reasonable transfer to make to take on a player who had only missed 8 games in the previous 2 years with injury and both of those were miscellaneous impact injuries (one was just described as a knock and the other a bruised bone).Oh, a history of Achilles problems.

As I said earlier, there’s no room for sentiment in the football business, credit to whoever is calling the shots for starting the long overdue cull.
