    Yep, and that will help cement Rice place as well, I would get that contract under him right now

    I don't think Sanchez was going to threaten that, he looks terrible!
  • BubblesNeverDiesBubblesNeverDies
    As strong as Rice is, I'd caution about cementing him in place - bit too much Godfather there.
    Instead, how about a horse's head under his pillow and making him an offer he can't refuse. ;yercoat

    Personally don’t think Sanchez has been terrible, he made one huge gaff because frankly our off the ball movement in that game was non-existent
  • ASLEFshruggedASLEFshrugged
    Rice's agent just got a big bargaining chip...
  • WHU_Champo_league_in_7_yearsWHU_Champo_league_in_7_years
    His bargaining chip is that he's a first teamer who is our young player of the year for 2 seasons with 30 caps and has played internationals desire only being 19

    Don't think Sanchez getting injured is the bargaining chip here
  • Slaven_Cups_His_BeardSlaven_Cups_His_Beard
    I do, because frankly an agent would try anything to get the deal for his client and fat on that 10-20%

    30 caps?
  • grey_til_I_dyegrey_til_I_dye
    Think caps was auto-corrected from apps.

    The Chelsea game he came on late and I swear he gave the ball away the first 4 times he got it. Not what you want from a player in that position.

    Arnie back & available for Man Utd according to the boss.

    ;hmm WhoScored have him as touching the ball 3 times, completing 1 pass.

    In the 217 mins he's played so far, he has a Pass Completion % of 88.5. (Rice is 83.7%)

    Probably miscontrolled the other 2 touches then.

    Sanchez IMO was our poorest buy pre season, have never rated him b4 he joined & again IMO what I've seen of him he's done very little to change my opinion.
    However as he's now a West Ham player i'll give him my support, I never obviously want any of our players to pick up injuries, especially a bad one by all accounts, but if I was pressed to have to pick a player who had to get injured, being honest it would be Sanchez.
  • LukerzLukerz
    Whufc_bulletin says that Sanchez will miss the rest of the season following further examinations after he suffered a similar injury to Lanzini.
  • ASLEFshruggedASLEFshrugged
    This is where Scooby Doo removes Sanchez's mask to reveal he is actually Gokhan Tore...

    ...then removes Tore's mask to reveal he is actually Tomas Hitzlsperger…

    ...then removes Hitzlsperger's mask to reveal he's actually Kieron Dyer (who owns the old fun fair).

    That certainly is not good news, regardless what I said above...

    So Yarmalenko has done his Achilles and is out for the season. I hope he has a good recovery.

    ;weep

    Confirmed?

    Haven’t seen it on the official site but others such as claret and hugh are reporting it. Most likely to be true.
  • SuzanneClaretSuzanneClaret
    It looked bad when they showed it on MOTD.
  • MrsGreyMrsGrey
    In real time, it seems as those near him heard something that made them react with horror. Spurs players (acc. to comms) immediately shouting to put the ball out of play ;ok
  • Slaven_Cups_His_BeardSlaven_Cups_His_Beard
    You could tell from his immediate reaction he was in trouble, I’d be very surprised if that’s not ruptured, and that will probably be most of the season out. Injuries starting to rack up again plus Arnie isn’t 100%

    I see they have a direct quote, so seems like it's fairly accurate, rather than just theorising based on what they know about Achilles injuries.
  • Slaven_Cups_His_BeardSlaven_Cups_His_Beard
    Ex has reported that the word out of the club is that it is ruptured ;weep

    Julien Faubert had a similar injury when he joined us, pre season game in mid July, didn’t make a first team appearance until mid Jan
  • MrsGreyMrsGrey
    izzy - yes, reaction on the pitch made me think it had snapped audibly (or bone had snapped). Poor bloke!

    Apparently (again acc. to the comms we had) Arnie was 'visibly distressed'.

    Although they may have been referencing his hair ;hmm ;wink
  • Slaven_Cups_His_BeardSlaven_Cups_His_Beard
    Yep awful Mrs G, really feel for the lad
  • Cuz1Cuz1
    Alfie inge Haland was never the same player after he did his, they said it looked liked he’d been shot with nobody else around him when he did his
  • sweepy23sweepy23
    I understand there is a big pop when it happens and yes unfortunately some never recover. Fingers crossed.
