He's done his hamstring 4-6 weeks he'll be out. Think he did something similar last time with the French U21's

This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise.

this will be the 3rd season in a row he'll miss all of pre-season training.

I think the other 2 were due to foot injuries.

He will need a rest anyway after a long season so that will probably account for the next 4 weeks. Hopefully back in full training early August could see him figure on the 12th Aug, if only as a sub

Think when we first signed him he had some back/ neck injury or something. You're right though he hasn't had a proper pre season with us. But if it's Roy at the helm at least he already knows him as a player and what he brings.

A real shame though, hopefully a speedy recovery.

And with fringe players, like Eze, they are keen to impress. He was putting himself about more for England than he does with Palace

These are the risks of playing international games
Plus he likely did not have a long holiday - time to rest physically or mentally

Could become a risk for first few season games

Yet as we know the top 7 clubs all have back up on the benches we don’t

This is where the elite clubs will huge Saudi money can always remain top

We just survive year in year out

Hope the lad is ok

Forever Palace Proud

And if not, Rak-Sakyi might get his chance to show what he can do before the end of the transfer window and the decision whether or not to send him out on loan to a Championship club.
