Ha yeah. Someone listed your injuries on here the other day and their expected contribution to the team and although a few would be first teamers not all of them would be. Some were fringe players. When we talk about 13 players out injured most would be starters with the others being impact subs. We have fringe players injured also that we’re not even including in that 13. First couple of games we had at the start of the season v Norwich and Bristol we had a good half a dozen out injured but still managed to beat those teams comfortably. That figure has now doubled. No team can contend with that. Anyway, gonna stop going on about it now. Just going to stew in my own misery.Athletico Charlton said:Last count we have 8 injured including a full back 5, but we seem to be joint top. All about squad depth I guess and the small clubs in this division just struggle to get that.0 -
Then 2 minutes later posts a link about Alex Neil going on about it instead...MillwallFan said:

Surely it's just bad luck then?MillwallFan said:
If you played us now you would beat us hands down. It’s not just first teamers who are out, it’s impact subs as well. We had absolutely nothing last night. No wide men, no one to bring off the bench to make a difference. He had to bring Mazou-Saka and Neghli on but both of them are carrying knocks.Elthamaddick said:we'd still manage to lose to your stiffs
Sorry, I know I sound like a broken record with these injuries but I’ve never known anything like it in all the years I’ve been going. It was bad last year at times but no where near as bad as it is now.
We need to know what the f*** is going on in training to find out why we get so many. Can’t be a coincidence. We’re getting something badly wrong behind the scenes. I’ll be there Saturday as always but I’m not excepting much. Newcastle will absolutely wipe the floor with us next week in the cup and I’m dreading west ham in a few weeks. I think we’d be more than a match for them with most of our first team fit but not with out 2nd and 3rd string. Games coming thick and fast now as well. From Saturday we’ll have 5 games in a 14 day period. Culminating with that lot from over the water. ☹️
Alex Neil was there last year and you made the play offs so it's not as if some new guy has just come in and ripped up your training methods.0 -
Who did you end up signing on loan as the replacement for Azeez?0

Milwall need to get their keeper back as a priority. When you lose a good player (IMO, their best player) late in the window it is hard to replace them even though you are flush with money. The next window is not a good window to bring players in so this has probably messed up their season.0

This is exactly what happened last season. We had loads out early season, but not to this extent. We had a three or four week period in December when we didn’t have one recognised central defender available. We had 7 out injured.Chris_from_Sidcup said:

He won’t be coming back anytime soon and I doubt he’ll ever play for us again. Hes already been replaced. We got a keeper in on deadline. The young lad from Stevenage. Filip Marschall. A good prospect but young for a keeper and signed too late to be involved last night.MuttleyCAFC said:Milwall need to get their keeper back as a priority.

Agent Gallen finally executing the plan 🫡MillwallFan said:19 -
Lisbie, Neghli and Esse can all play on the right wing. As well as Sykes.Chris_from_Sidcup said:Who did you end up signing on loan as the replacement for Azeez?1 -
Just about but I can barely make it out. Must be tiny.ShootersHillGuru said:Is anybody else hearing the sound of a violin3 -
This first part of the season before the international break is brutal, with 2 midweek league games, and 3 rounds of the EFL Cup all crammed in. There will be a few teams desperate for that long break (when half their team fly off to play for Albania or Congo)

MillwallFan said:Absolutely decimated squad as it was but then Arconte and Lisbie missing from the team tonight which means they’ve picked up injuries or illnesses during the week, and then De Norre and Coburn go off injured during the game. De Norres looked fairly serious. We are down to the absolute bare bones and these injuries are starting to get on my tits tbh. We’re going to be very shit for the next couple of months until we get a few back and can play a settled side for once. We had youngsters on the bench who I’d never even heard of.We’ll be ok and I’ll expect another strong second half of the season like we usually pull out the bag. Doesn’t make the situation any less frustrating. Nothing I’ve seen in this league so far this season suggests to me that it’s that much stronger than last year as we all predicted. Load of shit. Pissed off. Going to bed.
Upper mid table mate?

Au contraire, Rodders. It gives us over three months to come up with the excuses - injuries, weather conditions, length of the grass, referee (perm any 3 from 4 and all four).MillwallFan said:
Ok I can’t sleep I’m so pissed off. We finished the game with 10 players because Zak Lovelace went off injured at the end and we’d used all our subs. By the end of the game we had three ‘starters’ left on the pitch. None of the rest of that team would be near the starting 11 if we weren’t so decimated.swords_alive said:Dykes started and played the whole game didn't he? So it's not all bad news.Oh and you can take the piss, that’s fine, I give it out, so can take it back. One thing I will say though, you must be gutted you’re not playing us until December this season 🤣
right, off to get another beer. Sick as a parrot. 🦜
And not forgetting having a defence like a tea bag.

Millwall manager Alex Neil:
"It's frustrating because we're probably down to our last third of the squad in terms of trying to get a team on the pitch and trying to be competitive at the level.
"It's (injuries) certainly not helping us at the moment. We changed our shape tonight based on the fact that we didn't have any wide players ready.
"We ended up having to make wholesale changes, and the difficulty you've got with that is that the understanding throughout the players on the pitch is diluted. When you come up against an experienced team like Wrexham, it makes it a difficult task."

If Carlsberg made football seasons - we get promoted, the Stripy Nigels and the Spanners get relegated, and the natural south London/Surrey order is restored.11

And then you’ll wake up. 🤣bobmunro said:If Carlsberg made football seasons - we get promoted, the Stripy Nigels and the Spanners get relegated, and the natural south London/Surrey order is restored.
The only one of those three I can see happening is the stripeys going down.3 -
One season they've got to get it horribly wrong surely??? They salvaged the De Boer disaster so surely that's their jammy survival seasons used up.MillwallFan said:
