I wonder whether Casper would accept having his leg broken in such a situation?
Interesting idea. Calde would have done that!

The Argus is reporting that we are hopeful of good news on Maenpaa injury.

We were hopeful at the time of that article, 18 hours ago. Not sure what the latest outlook is.

Ah, I didn't look at the publishing time. I thought it was today. Is there any status update?

Not yet. We are all waiting for further news. Possibly hear something more tomorrow ?
Given the choice between that and actually playing, I'm surprised Casper wasn't self-harming while Maenpaa was being assessed.I wonder whether Casper would accept having his leg broken in such a situation?

I doubt whether it's anything broken or dislocated. You don't roll around like he did if you had done!
Overstretched or strained ligaments would be my guess.

Yup. A broken bone might just be less painful than prolonged public ineptitude.

What exactly did Casper do wrong?
Do you want to wait and find out?

Major contribution to the last 2 goals. He didnt give Tomori a shout and then passed to Hunemier with a pass that put him trouble immediately, other than that he did ok

Harsh. There was nothing wrong with the pass, rather it was Uwe's subsequent stumble. As to the lack of a shout to Tomori that needn't have stopped him putting the ball out for a corner. There's no point in all this scapegoating. We played poorly as a unit, particularly defensively.

Utter, utter rubbish. Tomori didn't side foot into his own goal, because Casper didn't scream "Don't kick it in the goal" as it came in. And Uwe had plenty enough time to knock it long. Nobody else's fault he mishit it.

I dont think that he should have passed to Hunemier, who had a player nearby, the ball should have been lumped forward especially as we needed a goal.
.
ps Exile he could have shouted that he had time to let it run to his right foot to clear. As I say just an opinion having watched the highlights and of some that were there

But any defensive player should never play the ball towards his own goal. If Tomori was unsure (i.e. no call), then he should have put it out for a corner. He'll learn fro it anyway.
As for the pass to Uwe, yes he was in trouble, but then Uwe should have gone for distance.

If it's anything like Baldock's minor injury expect something longer
