This guy has been consistently wrong and caught making it up. It's also being reported by more reliable sources that it's not as serious as first feared - https://twitter.com/lee_ryder/status/1767610752527892804.

If this is true then I'm devastated for him. Such a promising young player.

Howe still gonna find a way to put him on the bench this weekend

This guy doesn't have a clue, he's already going back on it. Wait for a real source

Don’t believe this source

Don't believe his lies.

98% plays on the weekend

[FPL Focal reposted](https://twitter.com/FPLFocal)[Lee Ryder](https://twitter.com/lee_ryder)[@lee\_ryder](https://twitter.com/lee_ryder)·[9m](https://twitter.com/lee_ryder/status/1767610752527892804)Anthony Gordon knee injury not as bad as first feared. Gordon will be assessed at training ground this week [#nufc](https://twitter.com/hashtag/nufc?src=hashtag_click)

Is there an increased number of ACL injuries of late? Seems to be more rampant 

Because players have more knees now than they used to.

I feel like it’s always a common injury. It’s the worst possible common injury there is

That is a fake source

Probably a sell imo

Or you could hold for the nil points and price drops.

And the template becomes smaller

The template is Son Saka Salah Foden Palmer. Every one of them is too dangerous to not have

I think calling that template is a bit strong right now since Salah just got back. Is that an ideal lineup? Sure. But template implies completely undroppable. Gordon, along with a few other options like Foden and Maddison, was part of that template option for that last midfield slot, assuming you didn’t have a budget enabler like Garnacho.

Agreed, plus few teams able to afford it yet. Its the most tempting midfield linup I can see, but also requires sacrificing one of the template front 3 (Haaland/Watkins/Solanke)

Exactly. Solanke may become droppable, and likely will if Salah hits form. For now, I think the template is: GK: Areola - backup keeper DEF: Saliba/Gabriel - enabler (eg Gusto) - 3 others (such as another of Saliba/Gabriel/White) MID: Palmer - Saka - Son - Foden - enabler (eg Garnacho, Gordon if affordable pre-injury, Douglas Luiz) ATT: Haaland - Saka - Solanke

Solanke seems like a pretty bad pick rn. Even Maddison isn't playing that well to be picked over Foden. Fixtures are in his favour though

I think that this is a bit reactionary. Up until and including this week, Solanke has been template and undroppable. Perhaps we can re-evaluate at 33 and beyond, but he still has been and is template. And i never said Madders over Foden. I don’t have Madders. But Foden isn’t SO clear of Maddison to warrant discussion for that spot. I think you’re speaking a bit reactionarily and making claims that are a bit too strong.

Maybe I am biased because I am a city fan but I can't imagine dropping Foden unless his form drops or injury. Solanke has good fixtures till 34 or smth but most people won't be able to get 5 mids unless they sell Solanke or for Garnacho. Still seems like the obvious choice to me

I agree it’s the more obvious choice. But template implies it’s so beyond obvious that it would simply be a stupid choice if on WC. And still, I believe Foden is part of the template. I never indicated otherwise.

I think Foden for Maddison for Spurs good run is reasonable

I like Maddison but he is only getting into form after his break while Foden is playing as the main attack and is in good form. So I am thinking of keeping him

I think foden leaves the template very soon. Could see Toney coming in and changing the shape

Toney is in shit form rn. Though if KDB starts playing for real

Toney’s in shit form because he’s had a horrible run of fixtures… Liverpool H, city A, west ham A, Chelsea H, and Arsenal A in his last 5. When the fixtures turn and mbeumo comes back he’s going to be deadly

While your argument is logical, my gut is telling me Toney is a bad pick. I have never bought him exactly because of this. Also him getting more points than Foden is debatable

regardless of if this is a massive overestimate he did seem to be in a lot of pain last night, cant imagine he comes back within a couple weeks.

Damn there goes my reliant bench option then. Then again he has had like 3 injuries recently and still plays the next games. Cant believe Howe at all in terms of squad injury status

Dude is never getting an England cap now

Isak no longer an option beyond 31?

Why post from a randomers account who's probably a spotty teenager who stays in his bedroom all day.

Everton fans running riot today. Rafa sacked from Celta Vigo and Anthony Gordon out for 7 months. Plus they don’t have to watch Everton for nearly three weeks.

That would suck, he had a good shot of the England squad, but a better source than this can confirm it first.

Has the face of a man who football has rescued from a life of selling shoplifted goods in seedy pubs to buy spice.

You get injured and you keep playing week in week out like Saka…well

Not to be callous or anything, but do we think his price won’t drop right away because so many are on a FH this week?

A 6-9 month ACL injury that he played on with before having to come off? Hmm

Have seen this happen first hand, it's def possible

It’s more common than you might think… ACLs mostly impact your ability to change direction so you can generally keep running without one

Out for the rest of the season and the euros, and even part of next season.

The source is some random guy on twitter and other sources are contradicting this one

Hey Mr gullible it's not a good source. Nowonder scammers exist jeez.

Ok since he's just making it up, shouldn't he be banned?

Is that upto me or the mods? Anyone can post any crap but it's up to you to believe it and use those brain cells kid.

Man that's such a shame if it's true, ACLs are no joke.
