2019/20 Jean-Philippe Gbamin

[nsno-chris]

Midfielder Jean-Philippe Gbamin has sustained a significant injury to his right quadriceps muscle.

The 23-year-old will undergo further investigation with the Club’s medical staff at USM Finch Farm this week.

That’s a tear

Ever wondered what are quadriceps are but were afraid to ask ?

I’ve decided to blame this injury entirely on Scheniderlin because it suits my agenda.

Forced in because of his red card (Two yellows against that woeful Palace side ffs refuse to get over that) and his legs haven’t coped with the extra football that he shouldn’t be playing at this stage. Blood on your hands Morgan.

6-8 weeks

Years

Gomes apart our midfield is weak. One wonders if throwing this kid in with no preseason made injury more likely? I don't know.

I thought Gomes was very poor tonight.

I thought Gomes was very poor tonight.

Ya think?

Would assume if it was a really bad one, he would be in for surgery, not being monitored. So hopefully its no more than the 4-6 weeks as reported this morning

If it’s a torn quad muscle your looking at 6 months +.

Everton are cursed.

Failure to recruit another midfield destroyer is going to cost big time.

He was. But he has quality

 

[RFUS]

Couldn't make it up.

Everton, that.

 

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

Oh no! Looked lively against Watford.

 

[EFCPaul]

I hope it's a soft tissue injury. I miss hearing about those. It wasn't a Bobby press conference without one of them.

"Muscle-fatigue".

 

[Zezti]

So the leg has fallen off. Great.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

Just our luck that arguably one of the priority roles in this side will now be left unfulfilled for even longer.

Why does this kind of thing seem to happen to us all the time??

If it’s a torn quad tendon it’ll be worse, it’ll have knock on effects to his knee strength and mobility moving forward. Think you regain around 85-95% full knee mobility back after surgery, for us that’s great for a professional footballer not so much. Constant knee injuries will likely occur, the knee will have damaged support from the 4 quad muscles above
