As per thread title.
Cooper has had surgery in Rome, which went well, and he should be back within the specified timeframe.
Dallas apparently fractured his foot against Sheff U on Saturday. Out for the same length of time. Shackleton pencilled in to replace him on Saturday.

Cooper and Dallas out for 4-6 weeks

Re: Cooper and Dallas out for 4-6 weeks
My god how unlucky are we ?
Our injuries are not short-term. I reckon our first team players have already missed 70 to 75 games already
Someone up there doesn't like us

Re: Cooper and Dallas out for 4-6 weeks
but cannot be linked to the training, these are fluke or "game" injuries for the most part not from not enough or too much training

Re: Cooper and Dallas out for 4-6 weeks
The Cooper news, whilst not good obviously, wasn't unexpected given how we all saw him limp off on Saturday but Dallas as well ?!
Who the hell is going to play right back now ?! Shackleton isn't really a full back so wouldn't advocate him.
Nightmare these injuries !

Re: Cooper and Dallas out for 4-6 weeks
Let's see how we do without the players who have been slagged off quite a lot this season. Ayling, Cooper and Dallas
Re: Cooper and Dallas out for 4-6 weeks
Unbelievable!
Dallas had his best game of the season on Saturday as well.
Do we have a recall clause written into Coyle's loan at Fleetwood?
How many players have not missed a game because injury this season? Not many.
Phillips, Klich, Saiz...any others?

Re: Cooper and Dallas out for 4-6 weeks
Bloody hell!! Cursed! Who goes to RB now? Alioski would be my pick, Bielsa already said he made a mistake with Shackleton at RB at the start of the season, would leave him develop as a CM.

Re: Cooper and Dallas out for 4-6 weeks
No we don't have a clause for Coyle, we'll have to wait until the 6th Jan before Lewie can return
Re: Cooper and Dallas out for 4-6 weeks
Cheers, I like 64s suggestion of Forshaw too, allows Saiz back into the team too, at least we have options, kind of!!

Re: Cooper and Dallas out for 4-6 weeks
When are Ayling and Berardi due back, cant be long now ?
Forshaw at Right Back isnt what I would do tbh Leon but we may not have any other choice. Only other one I can think of is my favourite player Alioski :-(

Re: Cooper and Dallas out for 4-6 weeks
Yes Alioski is probably the option unfortunately
This headless chicken doesn't deserve a place in our team, hopefully it will be the making of him if he is given the opportunity v the hoops, he's played well at LB.
Time for Ali to shape himself
Re: Cooper and Dallas out for 4-6 weeks
In fairness to Ali he was extremely good as a left back and showed great defensive awareness probably the best of any full back we have used this season.
He isnt a right back but has said he prefers playing right wing himself and our full backs play like wingers.
Also opens up a chance for Jack Clarke.

Re: Cooper and Dallas out for 4-6 weeks
Well this is just getting ridiculous. I was thinking to myself earlier if Dallas got injured, who'd play RB? 
Do we not have any academy RBs? I think Robbie Gotts is and Hosannah as well, but I think he's injured atm.

Re: Cooper and Dallas out for 4-6 weeks
We've also Douglas on 4 yellows so we could have only Jansson as a senior defender soon. Saiz and Alioski are also only one yellow away.
Re: Cooper and Dallas out for 4-6 weeks
Robbie Gotts has impressed me but whether he good enough for the championship only Bielsa & his coaches will know
