Gareth Barry

[FTY]

Didn't think it looked that bad ffs, at his age a broken leg can be a career ender.

Like I said int the game day thread, literally the only positive to this is that we have great cover.

But man, I cannot remember anything like this happening to any other team..

We do have cover in midfield, but central defence looks a bit worryingly fragile and now we've lost another option there.

Thank the lord. If you're going to pick up an injury then it might as well be at the start of an international break at least.

If it's not broken then hopefully it won't be too long a lay-off.

Tbf Arsenal are past masters of this sort of bad luck - top of the injury table most years and not for trivial stuff either @red1

 

[Baines' left foot]

Slow as fcuk and just fouls people all the time. 3 year deal what a joke!

Damage to ankle but not a broken leg SSN

 

[Tripster]

If it is broken that will be 3/4 months before he can start training,so looks like the lads season is over.Big loss we need Gibbo and Besic to stand up and maybe look at a raid for Delph in Jan.

GARETH BARRY UPDATE

Everton manager Roberto Martinez: "Happy to confirm that it's not the broken leg we were worried about with Gareth Barry. There is ankle ligament damage we must assess."

 

[paulbefc]

Anyone know, based on: "ankle ligament damage", how long a lay-off we could be talking about here?

 

[Jozzy]

Just glad it's not broken and we do have good cover for him, I hope Ledson can even get a cameo.

 

[Dario Terracotta]

"If Carlsberg did Injury lay offs,Everton Injury layoffs would be the best/longest in the world"

8-12 weeks isn't it what stones has?

 

[davek]

I wonder has he opened up the cut and bruising he suffered against Lille?
