2025/26 Jarrad Branthwaite

[EFC_FRANCIS]

Not sure why he didn’t pass the ball back to Pickford which seemed the obvious pass

He tried too much and seems like he then got injured because of it

If he had just passed back to Pickford he wouldn’t have got injured

He was already injured. Keane spent the entire second half warming up and Branthwaite was on his haunches at least twice before the injury. It was a ticking time bomb

 

[Rehnman]

Yep. Killed us in both boxes that. Barry is 6ft 5 and I don’t think I’ve ever seen him win a header in either box.

I’m still not ready to talk about Barry’s performance, it’s too soon. At the moment, I’m stuck in the shaking-my-head stage every time I hear his name.

Sad to see him in tears. May never be the same again, unfortunately it looks like we'll have to make plans without him for next season. Hopefully we will at least have O'Brien at centre half.

 

[Mickey]

Just like Brentford tarks backed off on a ball that was his to win and hung branners out to dry needs to focus.

 

[Swagger]

Any news on predicted time out? Will he be back to play in August?

If its another hamstring op needed i dont think he'll be back until Sept/Oct

He over exerted his body by not making the pass to Pickford and that over exertion caused his injury it happened immediately afterwards

It’s pretty simple stuff to comprehend if you watched the game

Because if he had to stretch to make the right pass he may of got injured, it's just bad luck, hardly his fault

No chance we see that, another 12 months for Keane and O`Brien at RB.

Jeez.
Medical experts and doom mongers on here is off the scale.
Probably did too much too quick from the first op and the reason for that is:-
a) He is class
b) We have a paper thin squad. Hopefully ,both will be addressed in the next transfer window.

Maybe we should pass him over to Leeds for rehab - they seem to have got Calvert Lewin playing with no hamstring problems!

b) - Moyes didn't want to sign a right back and insisted on playing our second best centre half at right back and our 4 choice centre back instead.

[gazzaa2]

Such a shame. A rolls royce of a centre back and barely played this season.

 

[Vaughan]

As someone who lost a career in sport due to hamstring injuries I couldn’t bear to watch what jarrad was going through, I had to head into the concourse for a bit

Absolutely devastated for him. It’s so unfair
