It looked a good decision at the time, and his wages would have been relatively low, but he's a player that got nowhere near breaking into the first team.
Did he go off straight away? And did he walk off himself? If so then it won’t be a tear, which is 3/4 months, because you’re getting carried off, must just be a pull, out for “some time” could be 4/5 weeks.

It did strike me that Alfie has played a lot this season. While other players have been rested for some games, either on the bench or completely, he's played full 90s just about every game

Went off straight away but hobbled off himself
Oh right, well dunno if it’s much comparison, but I’ve done mine a couple times, both had to be carried off as I couldn’t walk, and was out for 5/6 weeks. Like I said it can’t be torn if he hobbled off, so surely weeks rather than months.
Ah, what a shame - he is quickly becoming one of our key players. His ability to dribble at pace is pretty incredible, and puts the frighteners on any defender.
The sort of player who by just being on the pitch makes space for other players as the opposition will be so afraid of his pace.
That all being said, even though they are different sorts of players, with the likes of Gilbey, Maddison to come back in - plus tinkering with the formation to have Maatsen playing further up - I think Alfie may find it hard to break back into the team.
Just to clarify a minor tear is categorised as a grade 2 strain. A compete tear is grade 3.
Having had a grade 2 that I rushed back from, it'll be that as a minimum. It was suggested 6 weeks managed return to training for the strain. But I wasn't a sprinter putting it under explosive load.
6-8 weeks I reckon given the professionals he has available to him.
I'm confused why people think us signing Matthews relates to us signing Doughty?
Doughty (although left-footed) has been playing forward on the right. Some have suggested Matthews could play RWB with Gunter as right centre back in a three. We actually are quite well-served by left-footed players in the squad but fewer capable of putting a good ball in from the right.

The wages were not low...
How do you know that? And what would you call not low?

Hopefully see you just after the transfer window opens
GWS, Alfie.

Isint it great to have good viable options.

Get better quick Alf.
