Ballard injury


Yep agree unfortunately unless @Chewit is just bullshitting

It really is just a question of who he risks … there are a lot of injuries . RLB said it himself he’s got at least 3 keys players who they won’t decide on until tomorrow, which means if they play they are not fully fit. I don’t think Sunderland risk players.

Really the only certainty is that RLB is not bluffing to then deliver our best team, it’s not going to happen
Ffs man

So 4 of them are taking late fitness tests tomorrow and you know in advance they have all failed them ?

Didn’t say that

Yea but I think it’s a reasonable assumption that he risks one but not another ,ie Mukiele not in the squad but Ballard starts ,also he said he was hopeful about le fee starting last week

You can take it that if either of Ballard, Nordi or Le Fee where the only players injured they would be no where near team on Sunday
 
Probably about right
I see Luke O Nien playing at CB as part of a back 5 along with Aldarete and Geertruida. He's not great in the air but he's better than going with a back 4. Just thinking about set pieces without Ballard and the amount we're probably going to have to defend.
