Field and JW getting injured you couldn't make it up. Pretty sure we used all our luck up with the last minute Wembley goal2

Well if we can elimate the air, we should get at least another 10 games out of him...superdulvertonred said:We really miss Johnny Williams and the sooner he is back the better3 -
He might even hit the ball with a shot1

💬LB on new contract: “I’ve had some good, positive conversations yesterday and this morning, so we’re nearly there. Just one or two small adjustments and we’re there. It’s positive and I’m pleased with what I’m hearing.” #cafc
💬LB: “The most important thing for me is to concentrate on the game, so that’s the priority over the next few days. Once the small things are sorted out, then we’ll get it sorted.” #cafc
💬LB: “Regarding Maddison, I don’t think it’s fair to talk about him because he plays for Peterborough. I think he’s an excellent player, but I don’t think it’s fair to talk about anything other than that.” #cafc
💬LB: “Me and Steve Gallen have worked hard to put a list together. We have to have targets because we want to move the club forward. We’re all working hard to bring players in, we all recognise that the squad needs strengthening.” #cafc
💬LB: “January is tough because people move the goalposts. They have to be the right type of player, we can’t just jump in. They have to strengthen us, otherwise it’s just wasting money.” #cafc
💬LB on Gallagher: “It’s a big blow. Conor has been one of our best players and it’s obvious for everyone to see. I think he would have got better and better. No one expected him to do what he did and it just shows the job that we do here.” #cafc
💬LB: “That’s why it hurt me. Because I wanted to keep working with Conor and keep improving him. But he is Chelsea’s player.” #cafc
💬LB: “Conor’s gone and we have to move on. One player doesn’t make a squad of players. I trust the players that I have in this building.” #cafc
💬LB: “Jonny Williams is back in the fold as is Tomer Hemed and Jake Forster-Caskey. Oztumer has trained this week and Josh Cullen trains with us for the first time today.” #cafc
💬LB: “Chuks Aneke will be playing with the U23s. Fitness-wise he’s too far off it, so he’ll be playing for the U23s on Saturday. Macauley Bonne will still be out for the next few weeks.” #cafc
💬LB on Lyle Taylor: “It’s all guesswork. If you ask my honest opinion, I don’t think he’ll go. But I didn’t think Conor would go, so sometimes you can’t control it.” #cafc
💬LB on Preston: “They have got a certain way of playing and you have to respect them because they’re a very good side. It’s a tough place to go. When we played them at our place, we lost on a penalty, so we’ll be going there to get all three points.” #cafc

Sounds to me like Willams and JFC are good to start. Ozzy on the bench. Easing Aneke back through the u23s. Cullen on the bench for midweek.

You reckon? I'm not so sure he would have wanted to start Williams but now Gallagher has gone he doesn't have much choice if we want some creativity.cantersaddick said:Sounds to me like Willams and JFC are good to start.

What you can do is try to keep it level or close and bring Williams and Hemed on in 55th or 60th minute, a bit like Saturday. The problem is, the first bit of that might be hard. But you have to form a plan based on what you have and the situation and try. Maybe Williams can play a bigger part - I hope so - He is a key player.0

They either start and get subbed off after 60/70 mins or they'll be on the bench and come on.cantersaddick said:Sounds to me like Willams and JFC are good to start. Ozzy on the bench. Easing Aneke back through the u23s. Cullen on the bench for midweek.0 -

The goals posts being moved may explain why other than set pieces we don't seem to score.16

He means that in terms of no one expected him to be as good as he was at Charlton.Covered End said:

The clue is in the whole quote guys.
No one expected him to do what he did and it just shows the job that we do here.

What he means is, no-one expected Conor to be as successful with us as he was.Covered End said:

Not that Conor somehow navigated his way out.
That's how I read it anyway.18 -

i.e. They can choose to do what they want with him1 -
You read it that way because that is exactly what Bowyer meant.Stefco said:

I dont think that is what he was trying to say, he said "nobody expected him to do what he did and it shows the job we do here" or something like that, he is trying to say I think; "nobody expected him to be that good and it shows the job we do here"Chunes said:Bowyer seems to imply there that it was Conor who wanted to go1 -

Hasn't he been training with West Ham for a couple of weeks? As Field did with West Brom when he broke down again. Sure I read that Cullen did the same somewhere? #ForeverAddickted said:

It was reported a week or two ago that Cullen was taken out of training as a "precaution".cantersaddick said:

That doesn't sound like a major issue ..... just that no risks were taken and the player could be properly assessed.0 -
Tracey Leaburn twitted last weekend that it was good to have Cullen and Field back.
Seems unlikely to me that either would be ready for Fulham let alone Preston.
I just hope that none of returnees are rushed back or overplayed too early. That was what caused JFC to break down again.
At least there is light at the end of this tunnel.6 -
Didnt realise that Field was already back @ Sparrows Lane again
Thats promising!!4
