Confirmed: Trippier Out For Weeks

I managed to miss this line from Poch yesterday and I could be wrong, but I think one or two others may done the same.

The gaffer said: “In the case of Kieran being weeks away from the team, we cannot think that only Kyle can replace him.

“We are working (towards signing players), and we were working before, to try and find a solution.”

This entire quote is double bombshell for Flat Earthers.

Not only is Trippier kaput, but Walker-Peters ISN’T the next big thing. He is what he is, just a young lad making his way. A way which is currently miles away from being Premier League standard.

Walker-Peters has yet to make a senior debut, something that the excitable dupes have been quick to gloss over in their fervour to support Levy’s insanity of feeding kids into the starting XI.

Poch said of the 20 year old: “He is very young. To give him a great responsibility, I think it’s too much for him. He’s a player that needs to work with us and maybe start to play in different games.

Recap: We’re starting the season without a right back.
