OP said we didn't have players that could score goals like AK and Izquierdo . And i said we did but sadly not often which is the bleeding obvious and is your point. So i think you're furiously agreeing with me.

We've not scored much this season and hardly at all in 5 games. i know . I've been there. I haven't forgotten. 10 or so hours on the coach to Villa and back after a game with 2 attempts on target sears in your memory a bit. But . Do we have players that can score the odd worldie like Izquierdo...

the 2nd half v Burnley (A), 2 down v City (H) last season, first half v Watford (H), Leicester (H), Palace (95th minute) !

Agree about pace as aside from Lamptey/Cucurella - where is it - but we're all getting a bit misty eyed if we think Knockaert and Izquierdo were rampaging down the wings in their multiple PL appearances for the Albion - it was very inconsistent. Although AK's 18 months in the Champ for us were...

Not sure why you there's scare quotes around experts presumably referencing the club doctors / medical team (who are really well regarded in the EPL) And not sure why there's this impression that he was badly handled or given the wrong advice. Of course easy to do in hindsight.

Looks like club are trying to do the right thing by him - full stop. And presumably if Potter sees enough of him in training - he'll pick him. Its not like he's got many options for a potential winger/wing back. Our faith in Lallana and Welbeck and previously Beram Kayal who have had just as...

Izquierdo absolutely could play wing back under Potter. He needs more options there and we're about to head into the packed Xmas fixture pile up. . Don't write him off - assuming the rightfully cautious return goes ok.

The goal at Selhurst wasn't bad either.

Or Davy Propper or Pascal Gross .

The Argus confirmed today, what Hughton suggested at end of last week - he's back in training. via https://www.northstandchat.com/showthread.php?365486-Hughton-and-Injuries-tracker-2018-19/ I'd say Leicester might be a stretch but between now and Hudds here's the fixtures/possible...

Yes. You are (i think) referring to this (collated over on the injury thread). Which predicted at xmas that Jose would return to training at end of January or thereabouts via a fan who had bumped into him over xmas. Not far off as it turns out. PS: the press did pick up on this . Naylor...

Repeating stuff.

He’s not had any pre season and hasn’t trained since he returned from World Cup. Hughton has hinted (certainly not confirmed ) he’s due back training around now from his knee injury ...and if that goes well then he probably needs at least a few u23 run outs before a first team appearance/squad...

"is making good progress from the knee injury he reported back with from the World Cup with Colombia. Albion are hoping the winger will return to training the week after next" (ie: week beginning Sept 2nd) via http://www.theargus.co.uk/sport/16590167.chris-hughton-relieved-by-update-on-lewis-dunk/

That goal v Palace aside.

He has a knee injury. And there has been no update since Friday when Hughton said he was “very close” [to returning to training]

Yes. The Argus reported on July 27th that he was " likely to play a part " v Nice. But he didn't.

So this is what we know. World Cup: He returned from his holiday/World Cup on July 23rd. (all the players had a holiday afaik - he went back to Colombia for a bit. ) He did the media stuff , shirt stuff on July 26th but hasn't taken part in pre-season matches. Injury the reporting on this has...

Go and sit in the corner !
