Carabao Cup SF Football Thread ** spoilers ** [7th/8th Jan 5th/6th Feb 2025]

[Purdy]

Here’s hoping a lot of this is precautionary

 

[Rotty]

He just dived for ball and seemed to flop on floor, not good at all

 

[Mark1989]

Hope the player is okay, I missed how it occurred I saw sons shot but not what happened prior injury wise

 

[antijoke]

My god, just saw a replay on twitter and it looks absolutely horrific, almost like a snapped neck

 

[Derek W]

Here’s hoping a lot of this is precautionary

The commentators did say he's sat back up so hopefully he is with it and as you say just precautionary.

Just seen antijokes post!

 

[Mark1989]

Maybe passed out after attempting to head ball may explain all the checks

 

[AStaley]

Really hope he’s okay, still can’t see what happened, he seemed to stoop down for a header and just went flat.

 

[el_dazza]

My god, just saw a replay on twitter and it looks absolutely horrific, almost like a snapped neck

Exactly what I said to my other half :/

Looks like he tried to get back up and just couldn't.

Yeah, obviously I won’t share it here but it looks nasty af

 

[Trusty]

Initially didn't look like anything. Aftermath is horrid though

 

[fez]

Still can't see quite what happened. He whipped his neck to try and head it and then instantly ragdolled. Very strange.

 

[JamesH85]

That looks horrendous, hope the lads ok.

 

[Purdy]

My god, just saw a replay on twitter and it looks absolutely horrific, almost like a snapped neck

Hopefully it’s shoulder related or something instead but yeah wishful thinking

Spurs players don’t seem distraught which is a decent sign to be fair

 

[AStaley]

Really hoping for the best, looked horrific.

 

[Derek W]

Yeah, obviously I won’t share it here but it looks nasty af

In real time I honestly just thought he fluffed the header and did the footballer thing of staying down in embarrassment but a few seconds more realised maybe something's happened.

 

[Tombstone]

Well we seem to be continuing from where we left off against Utd at the moment

 

[Andybtsn]

Smacking head and dislocating shoulder I reckon

 

[el_dazza]

In real time I honestly just thought he fluffed the header and did the footballer thing of staying down in embarrassment but a few seconds more realised maybe something's happened.

Me too, I looked away for a second thinking the move was over and then there was a lot of concern, didn't even spot it!

 

[Mark1989]

We need to realise where in a match!

Weirdly it was exactly where my sight was lingering but it didn't look bad in any way. Ironically though I'm also on my phone looking at reading glasses but my screens far enough away so it isnt affected by my vision!
