Ugly Mackems 133 Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 Does anyone remember the last regular first teamer to work his way back to fitness by putting in 90 minutes for the reserves? Alan Shearer has came back from some horrendous injuries but has never even played 1 second for the reserves. Emre and Dyer break down within 30 mins of a return from their respective injuries. Thats a shocking situation if you ask me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut 145 Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 Start of the 2002-3 season I can remember Robert & Bellamy playing a reserve match a couple of days before we drew 2-2 at Anfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papa Lazaru 0 Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 Its very rare for toon players to use the reserves, which is irnoic considering how often w have players coming back from injury. To be honest though i would just settle for managers and coaches who won't bring the players back into the team until they are 100% categorically back to full fitness and will not break down straight away. What i don't want is managers who through their own stupid squad dismantling have little cover and so gamble on the fitness of two players who clearly weren't ready.
