Season ender
Nowhere near ready. Not when we're going for a European push.
Just tweak the system. Davies and Allan sitting and play 4-2-3-1 if needs be.
Kid gloves have to come off with Gbamin now too. Has to be back in training soon.
Yeah, I'd be surprised to see him back before May.
Fractures can heal quite quickly if they are small but I'd say we're talking 6 weeks minimum. Best case scenario is probably he's back for our final 5 or 6 league games.
I'd expect to see him again this season, but could be only a handful of games.
From the official site:
From precedent, I'd be surprised to see him back before late April, if then.

Just have to crack on without him. Big loss but part of the game. We coped with absence of Allan for so long. I’m hoping now it leaves the chance for Allan to be more adventurous with Davies sitting deeper.

A good box to box player is always usually an asset to any team.
Scouts looking for any age group should always be on the lookout for such a player and coached in that position.
Yep, sorry meant to say, start of May
I didn't necessarily mean start, I meant actually get game time tho. Like 10 minutes at the end of a match. Playing Gomes and Sigurdsson every match is going to kill us..
Maybe, but there's very little evidence that he's actually ready mate. He's only 17/18?
He's a big player but doesn't exactly look powerful yet - as you'd expect at that age.
We played Tom Davies at 17/18. I'd say Davies issue is talent holding him back, not because he was introduced too early.
I think Davies clearly was 'ready' though. I haven't seen anything of Onyango in the 23s to suggest that he's ready for the step up.
We'll see, but throwing him in and asking us to do the job of probably what's proved to be our most important midfielder seems a large order.
Again, I didn't say start, I said get him involved. Don't disagree that's he's very raw. I said "play him for 10 minutes" instead of the 0 he gets now. We need some option.
