Austin, Dunne, Onuoha injury updates

[nasser95]

I'm not sure I really agree what I saw of Zarate and Vargas they looked far more mobile and have better pace , but more to the point I think Caulker is a liability that is always just a very basic fukc up away , We're on a point in deep added time hoof the ball as far away from your goal as you can no he carries the ball in his own half and deliver a short pass goodnight a point , and it's not just a one off

Caulker is only a liability when he moves up the pitch, he will learn to stop. Dunne makes too many defensive mistakes though to really be what we need. Onuoha is brill, caulker is an excellent tackler and when we have isla and yun back in the side, we will start showing what we can do defensively

TF just tweeted

It's a Tony tweet, he speaks with forked tongue, he should get off twitter, should have nothing to go with that site.

See, it's useful for communicating with fans....

Excellent news about Charlie.

We could easily have started with Isla in the side yesterday Nasser, but someone thought it might be an idea just to confirm the fact that Onouha isn't a right back.

Injury updates

Dunne out for 3 months.
Onuoha out for 1 month.
Charlie out for 1 week.

I can see a back 4 of Isla, Ferdinand, Caulker and Yun/Hill for the foreseeable.

Injuries to Dunne and Onuoha

Ian Taylor just tweeted out 3 months for Dunne, 2-3 weeks for ned, citing MCL knee injury and Hammy respectively

[QPR Richard]

That may be the last we see of Dunne. Pity.

[brightonr]

Oh great.

Step forward Clint Hill for CB.

Should be able to win headers against Defoe at leat.

[Rangers77]

Looks like Anton and Caulker. Or Caulker and Hill.....

Now you've got the chance to see how he handles the defence on Tuesday
Caulker and Hill
or
Caulker and Rio
fills me with undying confidence

[kenthoop]

Isla, Rio, Caulker, Yun

[Rangers77]

Onouha is out for 3 to 4 weeks.

[Bigdave]
