" Injury update on Salech, Rubin, Lawlor & Davies "

BBM:

“Salech is back in the very early stages of training with us.

“He trained for the first time yesterday with the group, so it’s good to have him back.

“He had an extremely serious injury, the likes of which haven’t been seen in football a lot.

“He’s had his first exposure to heading a football this week, and then heading the ball under opposition pressure, which he tends to get a lot of.

“So he still has some stiffness while he’s getting used to that again because he hasn’t done it for so long.

“Once we’re pretty clear that he’s back in a situation where he can train as normal and have no pain, then he’ll be good to go.

"But he's very close. Very close.

“He’s a very important player for us.

“He’s a very skilful player and a very good player, and there’s no doubt he gives us something different when he plays.



“Dylan has to be assessed after coming off in the game against Northern Ireland.



“Rubin hasn’t trained with us yet, so fingers crossed he’ll train before the game on Monday.

"I think Rubin didn’t seem comfortable with how he felt. He’s obviously a very, very important player for us in many different ways.

"So to get him back without being seriously injured was great for us. Now we just hope we can get him in a position, again like Yousef, where he’s fit to play and contribute to the team.



“Isaak Davies is more complicated than I thought. I thought he would be back training during the international break, but it hasn’t happened.

“He hasn’t had any setbacks, it’s just taken a little bit longer for him to get into a position where he’s been able to rejoin us.

“He had a slight hamstring issue and there have been some complications with that.

“He’s in a pretty good place, but the physio, James, isn’t totally happy that he’s ready to return.

“Part of that is maybe down to his history being a little bit complex, so we do tend to be a little bit more careful with him.

“But he seems almost ready to go, so it won’t be long.”

I still stand by, We should of strengthened in January, especially Salech out virtually for the season.

We both said the same got shot down we don' t need cover for salech what if he has a serious injury and that's exactly what he had,
and we have missed him np ifs or buts we were right others were wrong .

I thought Stockport were disgraceful during that game.

Monty we really got shot down, this had cost us the Title, but thankfully the teams chasing us have never been able to put a run together.

BBM has known all along that Salech would not be back.
