The injury news on Angelo Ogbonna is vey bad — he has has an anterior cruciate ligament injury, which presumably could keep him out for the rest of the season. Clearly it was a mistake to try and play on against Liverpool. Craig Dawson is a very capable deputy yo play alongside Zouma and WHU have Issa Diop in reserve but it will stretch the squad even further. Young Jamal Baptiste might even be an option for some of the dead rubber games in the Europa League.
A fourth centre back might now be necessary for a loan signing in the transfer window. We also need a deputy for Antonio as every player is only a game away from a bad injury. Meanwhile we'll miss Oggy's calm authority at the back. Good luck with your rehabilitation Angelo.
