The Importance of Alphonso Davies

[GasPed]

From the Bavarian Football Works site:

 

Nagelsmann: “According to the Doc, there is at least one fiber tear. Have to wait and see what comes out tomorrow.”

😱 🤞🙏

So annoying how he consistently plays 90 minutes in games that Bayern are up 3-4 goals in. With how injury prone he is you would think they can put Stanisic in once in a while for a half hour ffs

Awesome he will have a nice rest, then it’s Qatar! Let’s go!

[Bertuzzi44]

Huge news! Thank goodness!

I knew it would be good news from the moment that I saw Tom Harrington's tweet - that's the second time his German friend has pulled a fast one on him with false information regarding a Davies injury (the previous time his friend claimed Nagelsmann said something during a post-game press conference which he never did).

Wheeler is being ridiculous. The best case scenario is not disastrous. The best case scenario is Davies takes a week off and is fully fit for Qatar - and that’s still entirely possible.

Pretty well it. Best case he's training light in 7-10 days and maybe gets 15-20 m v Japan to test game pace.

We have alternatives, fortunately, not at his level but without hurting us defensively at least. What it'd do especially is give rivals something less to worry about.

There you go. He will recover in time. Let's all remember to wait for an actual medical assessment before htting the panic button in the future.

As a side note, I feel like there's always a media shitstorm when Davies could potentially be out for any length of time. I understand this happens because he's a celebrity, but I doubt the actual severity of the injury would have been blown out of proportion if it was any other player.

let’s hope its not Bayern just trying to save face. He might not be 100%

 Make it make sense first.

This is such a naive statement considering he is our best player, and he also happens to be one of the best in the game. So if course there’s going to be a media shitstorm it goes without saying.

Wait for him to update us on social media. A First hand account is what we need to quash speculation

How is that naive? I acknowledged that the media shitstorm happens because he is a celebrity. I'm just saying it's annoying.

You do realize those gods will be coming after your first born now?

[InglewoodJack]

Oh good god thank you. If he ends up sticking this this timeline, honestly, not playing for the next next few weeks and being ready for Qatar is the best scenario, instead of risking this type of injury in a week or two.

He is our once in a generation player 2 weeks before our second ever world cup ever, first in almost 40 years. 
 

the reaction you saw was warranted and was always going to happen and will happen again in the future of a similar situation would arise. 
 

the “panic button” was absolutely warranted. 
 

you’re never going to have diehard fans say “oh look like he tore his hamstring, but its ok lets wait and see to be sure” theyre going to absolutely lose their shit

It depends on the injury. From what I saw, there was absolutely a chance it wasn't going to interfere with his participation at the WC. It's OK to be concerned but another to panic when the severity of an injury is unclear.

exactly the point. There was a chance it wasnt going to affect wc and there was a chance it was going to. hence the panic

you cant tel ppl how to react to the chance davies misses the wc. Panicking is a logical reaction

 We’re gunna have to agree to disagree here.

It was just an exercise in psychology.  Half thought he was done for sure.  Half thought he'd be OK.  He walked off so there was a chance he was OK, but clearly could also have been more severe to rule him out.  No one had enough medical knowledge to back up their position.  I'm not a psychology major, but it probably says something about your psychological make up depending on which side you were on.  I'm not even sure what side I was on but I'm a bit hung over today..lol.

Davies is OKAY.....it doesn't matter now!
