Chamberlain was told that it would take a year before his knee would be back to full rotation, or something similar. So really next season is the test.
I’m guilty as the next person of forgetting just how much those injuries would have affected him both mentally and physically.People weren't saying that when he was blasting in goals like against City. I get what you say about consistency, but I think it's premature. For us he did start to look consistently impressive, and then - let's not forget - he suffered an horrific combination of injuries that might have finished some players. I don't think it's over-generous to give him at least a season to fully regain, or come close to, his previous form. Next season will really be the test, but we've been wanting a midfielder who can really be that kind of attacking threat since Ray Houghton. He's worth giving a bit more time IMHO.
I assume this is from months ago ... or has Jamie got the inside track on a freak injury Fabinho has just picked up?“Oh, Origi…what do you say about Origi? He’s possibly the best worst player in the world. He just scores in big games – he’s a legend in Liverpool…a ‘cult hero’ you might say. If one of the front three was out for a long time with [hl]a serious injury – maybe what Fabinho’s got now[/hl] – you might worry, but his minutes-to-goals ratio and the goals he’s scored in big games – it’s unbelievable.
Don 't know how you watch the match but he said similar in his commentary during the villa gameI assume this is from months ago ... or has Jamie got the inside track on a freak injury Fabinho has just picked up?
