Loanees Barazite and Gilbert pick up injuries; Szczesny beaten twice as Poland draw

Arsenal loanees Nacer Barazite and Kerrea Gilbert both picked up injuries last night. Gilbert only has a minor problem after he was replaced by Patrick Kisnorbo 66 minutes into Leicester’s 2-2 draw with Walsall. The signs are far worse for Barazite, he has suspected knee ligament damage and will have a scan tomorrow to determine the full extent of the injury.

In international news, goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny was in action again today as Poland U19s drew 2-2 with Bosnia and Herzegovina U19s in their second qualifier. The Poles beat Montenegro 2-1 in their opening qualifier but found themselves a goal down at the break after Haris Handzić’s strike. Handzić grabbed another after the interval to make it 2-0 but Poland fought back to salvage a point after goals from Alan Stulin and Tomasz Hołota. Greece beat Montenegro 1-0 in the other game in Group 10 and are next up for Poland on Saturday. Poland and Bosnia both currently have four points, Greece have three and Montenegro have zero.

    Too bad with Barazite, I have seen a couple of games with him this season and he was just clicking into gear. Really bad news if he has done his cruciate.

    Barazite is a good talent. Would have liked to see him play attack more for the Rams. Bad news.

    Off topic but I was watching Ferdinand for United, great player. Kyle Bartley is a great talent and I hope he can fulfil his potential. Very aggresive but can improve and hopefully become a Rio Ferdinand style player.

    Oh yeah and one more thing; do you think you can add my link to the side of your site. I have been doing this for 3 months now. I’ll definitely add your. Thanks
