Does anyone know when N'jie is expected to return or are we really looking at next season to see anything of him?

I suppose it would be like a new signing, can only remember him as a sub versus Man City and looked quick; think he put in a good ball that led to Lamela's goal.

Initial reports said March, and there's been no news to contradict or extend that, would assume end of March, same as Vertonghen.

It's sounds counter intuitive, but the risk for getting injured is exactly the same every single time. This kind of risk doesn't accrue over time. If you go the first time injury free, you will not be at a greater risk the 2nd time, then the 3rd time, then even greater the 4th time. If you don't play a player out of fear of him getting injured, you haven't saved him from injury overall, you've only saved him from injury in that specific match. But in the next match, the risk of him getting injured is exactly the same. What do you do – never play your best players?

Look at it this way, since it's "only" to his nose, maybe his legs are getting some much needed rest, keeping him fitter for longer.

Sorry, that's just not true

A tired person - and for clarification that includes a person who has played before a full recovery from his last game (typically 5 days(, is more LIKELY to get an injury because they do things a split second more slowly and that split second is the difference between doing something perfectly and being slightly off in timing.

Mason looks rusty, I have major doubts either him or Bentaleb could do the job against West Ham to be honest, maybe with a bit more game time under their belts but they are both coming back from injury, I think that is a big ask after such a long lay off.

West Ham are no walk overs, especially away. We need Dembele fit and firing for both them games as they are massive in terms of our chance at the title, huge games.

And your views now ?

Looked much better tonight, I still think West Ham and Arsenal is a big step though after such a long layoff. If he does play either of those games though one thing I know for sure is he will give 100% for the shirt.

and Swansea ? Another one to improve his match fitness imo, and after that its not so much of a step up ?

I think if he starts against Swansea and has a solid game then I will feel a bit more at ease with him against West Ham, think we need Dembele for the scum game though.

From what Poch said, (7 - 10 days) think its touch and go as to whether Dembele is fit for Arsenal, so think we need to plan on him not being fit - but if he is , its a great bonus.

For once I'd love for Poch to over-estimate an injury lay-off and him be back for Arsenal.

Like when Pellegrini said Silva would be injured for our game.

That could be massive for us as he offers something totally different - we don't always make the best of counter attacking situations and his pace could help with that a lot.

What are the chances of Dembele being back for Arsenal? Pretty high?

bubble07 · Feb 28, 2016

I reckon Carroll and Dembele will be back for Arsenal leaving Verts for April and Clinton mid March

Snarfalicious · Feb 28, 2016

Oh my God, a rested/healthy Dembele, Vertonghen and NJie for April could be massive.

I hope we play it cautiously. We've got good enough midfield options and the thought of Dembele having. A setback and missing a portion or all of Aprils matches is terrifying.

Quotes regarding tiredness

Poch seems to really get the human aspect of this game. He knows when guys are dropping because their fitness or mentality isn't quite there and they need a rest. It's a generally small squad and he's been masterful with keeping players fresh to this point in the season. 2 more months to go, Mauricio.

annoyingly most of our squad have 2 games a week, right up to the Liverpool match, or even up to the Stoke match if we beat Dortmund F'ing friendly internationals at Easter

Can we recall Pritchard? I don't see the point of him just sitting on west broms bench, we could use all the bodies right now
