All I can see is that Solanke was out for over 60 days, therefore he can be replaced. Why would he be replaced if he’s likely to be fit to play in either or both of the next UCL matches?

I don’t know about his injury and let’s be honest, the whole comms about it has been “mixed” at best
But the rumours yesterday are just plain daft
I’ll paraphrase them for you “ he isn’t injured, he is on a drug ban”… it’s steroid addiction
I mean that’s fan fiction and then some

I wasn’t aware about the other rumours. Only that his injury is dragging on far longer than we had expected and that him being withdrawn from the squad clearly doesn’t bode well for at least not for the next month.

It’s scary right
Not sure why people decided to create them but hey…
I mean one guy started it, openly admitted that it was his theory only and next it’s being recycled with more ITKs

If it's a ban we would not have wasted a CL space knowing he couldn't play.
Does no one think anything through anymore.

lol - if it's a drugs ban do you think he'd be the first player that Sonny went to after receiving his award last night? Not a chance Solanke would be in the same postcode if he was on the naughty step.

Of course I don't think it's a drug ban, I thought that was obvious.

Just to set the record straight, this is incorrect, as per some other thread here.
You can replace a seriously injured player, you don't have to wait 60 days.
But that player you take out cannot come back into the CL squad contention for at least 60 days.
So I think Frank was either misinformed or lying or something else like 'home grown' or whatever but I don't really want to open that minefield of buttered pigeons in a can in a bag before they're hatched.
