AV82 Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 Today really puts into perspective just how important a capable goalkeeper is. I really hope the improvement this season is enough to keep him. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He just needs a day or so to get it out of his system. Hopefully he hasn’t infected half the squad. Coming in to work when you’re sick and infecting your teammates is not a good idea in any workplace. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it would've started much sooner, too. It'd be Gary Lineker all over again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CVByrne Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 I think Emi got hit in the balls with the Toney chance he saved in first half, you could see him uncomfortable. It might have been that making him feel ill 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be cutting it fine for Fulham. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YLN Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 What are the rules on if a team's goalkeeper has diarrhea streaming down his leg throughout the match, creating small puddles of excrement around the six yard box? Is there a rule saying it's not allowed? Because if there is no rule against it, can I suggest that we take advantage of that? 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll be flinging poo round his area like a monkey in the zoo to upset as many of the opposition as he can. Lower Holte will have to take cover.

If I feel terrible at work and take some flexi back to get myself home, the go-to polite response is get well soon. I don't think it's an ominous message from them that means they know more about the illness I've got and I don't think anyone expects me to be away for a while, still anticipate seeing me the following morning. Think there's too much weight put into the social media posts of clubs, as if the temp with the login details to our insta has got a direct line to Emery and the Medical team 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure I've seen it for shorter absences before (although it's probably selective awareness given if an injury isn't serious I don't go looking for info about it). That said, he's arguably our most key player, and given the relative drop off we face if he gets subbed, it's more likely just an insta rep just recognising the fact we need him back for the next game. Sounds like he should be according to Greg, the concern is whether anyone else in the squad gets it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, if it was, with the amount of time him, Emi2, Luiz, Moreno, and Carlos spend together they've probably eaten the same things anyway for most of their meals.

I think Emery said it was related to something he ate. Maybe he's just intolerant to something they aren't.'

Hopefully isolated whatever the case. A 12 hour window between developing for one person and another is possible with food poisoning. The others might be later showing signs. Do we get a presser today for tomorrow's game? Might give us an idea if anyone else is impacted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 Whilst it will be shit we may just about be able to cope if he misses Tuesdays game. If he is out for the OT game I’d be gutted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
