Alex Pritchard

[billyiddo]

Seeing us completely outplay them in their own back yard was at once both gloriously satisfying and a little disconcerting.

Just imagine if we pipped them to the title. Just for a moment.

If we take the 3 points from the game against them at WHL as a given, really we are only 3 points behind them atm...

Such a shame we aren't a year ahead in our development under Poch as I think the league is there for the taking this year - but we're a bit green to make a real go of it

But we have the energy and belief that we have never had before

Our squad is as strong as a unit as its been in a a very long time...

We just need luck and the ability to convert draws into wins

 

[Maltese Falcon]

I would suggest our first half away to the Goons was better

Possibly... indeed it would be unfathomable to face the top 5 clubs (Leicester excepted) without Dembele because his ability to keep possession is essential.

However against clubs that park the bus (and they constitute practically all the rest) his influence is less critical than the other four. These are the games I hope that Pritchard can influence.

 

[P.D.]

Anyone know when he's back? Such a shame he's been out so long. Would certainly have seen a reasonable amount of game time and could be a good back up option as we get into the business end of the season.

In the team news he's not listed as being out injured so assume he's back in training. Would be great if he could get some minutes on Saturday.

Was thinking about this as well but I think if we were to see him Saturday his name would've popped up in a few U21 games by now. Not going to be a cakewalk for putting in players off the back long spells out in to (but to be fair I'm not sure where young Alex is at in terms of fitness obviously...)

Has had a minor setback, probably looking at mid-Feb now.

Such a shame. This should have been his big breakthrough year with us.

I've been dying to see him in action and what he can do. So back mid-Feb, which probably means he won't be getting much if any game time until April?

 

[dawaxman]

Isn't he in the u21 squad against Liverpool tonight?

 

[Whiffler]

Other (Joe) Pritchard ?

I think we might as well forget about him for this season. Bearing in mind the season ends early May anyway

 

[Kandi1977]

Seems like he's a Sturridge mk2

 

[braineclipse]

Seems like he's a Sturridge mk2

After one injury and one setback?

When he started 43 games for Brentford in the Championship last season and 33 for Swindon in League One the season before that...

 

[Raziel]

might not be the worst move for him -> http://www.winnersports.co.uk/burnl...itchard-after-missing-out-on-alan-judge-72572

 

[spurspinter1]

We would be allowed to loan to championship sides after the window ends right?

There shouldn't really be anywhere better for him to get back up to speed in terms of fitness, once that happens if every game is a 6 pointer or a quarter final it's fair to say he would most likely be better in the championship.

macaronic post Kandi by the way.

That article doesn't even mention his injury, suggesting instead the only reason Pritchard hasn't featured is because he's too far down the pecking order.

How much do they pay these journos for such bollox?

 

[monkeybarry]

Good club, would be a good move for him

 

[glorygloryeze]

I'm surprised at the number of people who are taking that article seriously. Poch has said he is very much in his plans....i doubt Pritchard will be going anywhere this window

 

[We are Tottenham]

Good club, would be a good move for him

Are you an Arsenal fan...

1. Don't be dingdong
2. Calm down
3. At present we have Eriksen, Lamela, Onomah, Chadli, Son and our biggest chance of a world class player Alli all ahead of him.
So he isn't going to get playing time.
