Havertz can easily play one game a week in the next 2 months.

In the meantime Bukayo is expected to be back early to mid March.

We'll have:

Martinelli and Sterling

Havertz and Trossard

Saka and Nwaneri

6 players for 3 positions. Couldn't be any healthier than that.

Look, if by the end of March we had to play twice a week non stop, I would have insisted on bringing in a good player for sure. But the club is aware of things. They thought about it and how healthy it will all be during/after March. And before that we'll have one game per week. We saved 10m by not bringing a loanee to help us for the 6 games before the middle of March. Money that goes straight into the piggy bank for our shopping madness in the summer.

It's all good. I'm cool.

You are indeed reckless

Recovery from surgeries aren't always linear, players have set backs all the time and have to go slower.

Not providing coverage when you could have to throw the dice on Saka coming back in mid March borders on negligence.

We don't have a choice now, all we can do is hope

Sterling? really? after he had literally brought 0 contributions over all appearances?

I mean, he's here. Are we going to completely forget about him?

Like Morata is a better option as a player to Sterling. Both are past it. But one is already here. We shouldn't add another bum.

Morata was scoring in many different teams, at least in three different leagues. And he's a number 9, the physical profile we lack.

He's just trying to cope

Hanging unto hope, like the rest of us. He's just more brash in his approach.
