Frankie 8,114 Posted July 13, 2010 Author Share Posted July 13, 2010 Where has this idea come from that Thommo is injury prone? He had one bad long term injury but has barely missed a game otherwise. Edu is much more prone to injuries. Edu is certainly prone as well but Thomson has had two serious knee injuries in his career and had had plenty niggling injuries during his time at Ibrox as well.

Zappa 0 Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Where has this idea come from that Thommo is injury prone? He had one bad long term injury but has barely missed a game otherwise. Edu is much more prone to injuries. . He suffered a serious cruciate ligament injury at Hibs in the 03/04 season which caused him to hardly play a game in the 04/05 season. We signed him in the January of '07 and he got a hamstring injury in the first half of his first game for us in the February. He did go on to have a decent run for us, but by November '08 he had another serious career-threatening injury that kept him out of regular action well into the 09/10 season. Since returning back to action he's been stop/start and inconsistent, playing brilliant one week & pretty rotten the next. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

craig 5,195 Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Where has this idea come from that Thommo is injury prone? He had one bad long term injury but has barely missed a game otherwise. Edu is much more prone to injuries. To be fair Thomson also had a similar bad injury whilst at Hibs. But I agree - everyone seems to be suggesting that Thomson is injury prone and that Edu should play ahead of him and isnt injury prone. Edu missed a lengthy spell too, or are we conveniently forgetting that ? To be fair, we DO have McCulloch, Davis, Edu, Fleck all vying for CM position - but selling Thomson for what we got him for is, in my opinion, criminal - regardless of remaning length of contract. I only wish that we received a reasonable bid for McCulloch and that it could be him leaving rather than Thomson. I don't say that as a slight on big jig - but he is nearing the end of his career whilst Thomson has 7 or 8 years left and could easily be a mainstay of the team. Again, that said, big jig offers versatility which we will most definitely need this season given our depleted numbers ! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not as criminal as selling Fergie & Adam for a combined total of �£2m !! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
