    Well, that sucks. Despite what some other people seem to think, I really like him and think he brings a lot to the pitch when he’s playing. Well, here’s to hoping to a speedy recovery and a great second half season for him.

  • Steve

    I feel bad for him.  Not a good year for him as a starter.  He will have 2.5 months (assuming he comes back on time) to start then he is riding the pine.

    We have no strikers.

  • Anthony

    Time for the 4-5-1 or Zakuani and Montero up front.
