Aaron Ramsey injury
VK won't say what he's done but season ending and suggested it might be most of the year.
Re: Aaron Ramsey injury
Wouldn’t you think that mention of “suggested it might be most of the year” Kompany would actually come out with what it is.

Re: Aaron Ramsey injury
So why the hell not put the fan's in the picture, personally I'm not as bothered as I may be of foster for instance, because I'm not a fan of Ramsey, done nothing and hardly been fit since coming through the door imo, whereas foster was also a subject of what's he's injury recently, I just don't get this secrecy on player's injuries, nobody expects vk to go into great detail because we put our own spin on it, but at least let us know the nature of he's injury, ie-: if it's acl we know roughly when to expect him back for instance.ClaretTony wrote: ↑Thu Feb 22, 2024 1:36 pmVK won't say what he's done but season ending and suggested it might be most of the year.

Re: Aaron Ramsey injury
That is awful for the kid.
I anticipated him becoming a big player for us next season. Nightmare.

Re: Aaron Ramsey injury
What a dreadful signing this has turned into. Shame for him because id have expected him to play a big part in the Championship.
We've basically just spunked over 10 million down the drain

Re: Aaron Ramsey injury
We know he’s injured and probably won’t be back till late this year.
Not sure I need to know anything more. Not really any odds to me if it’s a break, ligament damage or something else.

You say you want to know what he has done so you know when to expect him back, isn't best part of this year enough info ?
Maybe Kompany's initial thoughts are with the player rather than someone on the internet.

Re: Aaron Ramsey injury
I beg to differ , nobody’s asking for a players medical history in any shape or form ,just a very very basic synopsis of the serious injury would be more than adequate for the fans, etc and others who pay their wages .

Re: Aaron Ramsey injury
It’s not at all.
We seem to be very much on our own as a club here with how we communicate our injuries.
What is the reason everything is such a mystery ?
It’s not player confidentiality or data protection as some people seem to defend the approach with - or else every other club would not report details of their injuries as they do.
Pep and Klopp etc give a detailed update on their injuries on at least a weekly basis.
The fans, press etc are not entitled to know this but they want to….and whilst there may be the exceptional case when you should not provide details for the vast majority of injuries I’m really struggling to see why we are being so guarded

Other clubs players might agree for details to be released, like Redmond did for us.

Re: Aaron Ramsey injury
The precise nature of the injury is, quite simply, none of our business. I find the obsession with being told the details of a player's injury, or illness, weird in all honesty. If the player or the club, or both, wish to remain silent on the exact injury then so be it.

This board only seems to deal in extremes this day.
I think a lot of fans would just like to be kept a bit more informed as to when key players are due back or how they are progressing. That hardly means they want sight of their medical records or be in the room when surgery is happening

Re: Aaron Ramsey injury
Agree with that but for shorter term things it doesn’t help with how evasive he is now and we do seem unique at it. I get asked by young family members about whether we will see certain players in the next game and I have to admit I don’t have a clue, makes it hard to persuade them to come on.agreenwood wrote: ↑Thu Feb 22, 2024 2:05 pmWe know he’s injured and probably won’t be back till late this year.
Not sure I need to know anything more. Not really any odds to me if it’s a break, ligament damage or something else.
The question on Tresor’s absence had him squirming and coming out with gibberish really, he has had a few things going on, a bug being one, etc. Many of his answers (not just this one) posed more questions because I left that feed with the sense that something has happened with Tresor and if it hasn’t that is VK’s fault for being evasive.
What doesn’t help is journos sounding terrified and giving him slow deliveries. One young reporter asked about the Championship players not getting a chance, got an answer that came close to saying “I didn’t feel they were good enough, we bought them for that one job last year alone”, but the reporter didn’t follow up the question and moved onto a lame question about Beyer. That was the time to use his final question to pin him down and say “that was your opinion but 1 win in 23 against last year’s Premier League teams suggests that choice to change everything hasn’t worked”. I do feel that isn’t a single person holding VK to account and it doesn’t help his performance, same with any of us.
Finally, most importantly, best wishes to Aaron

I'm not fussed about the injuries at all. Doesn't bother me. It's a knee injury they take time. I don't need to know much
From a lack a info point of view then its a little strange. It can't be secrecy to affect sell on fees because any medical will show up any surgery etc. I don't know why it's not communicated now.
There is plenty of comms when we sign a new player. That's because the general fan base is interested in the new signings and who we have in the squad. It also matters to then general fan base about the same players they watch each week and their form, ability , strengths and weaknesses and some like to know injuries.
The keeping stum, is akin to dyche half covering his hob when asking woan what the score is.

Re: Aaron Ramsey injury
Hi Crosspool, I've just listened to Vincent Kompany's presser. Funny how we can hear what Vincent Kompany says and arrive at different conclusions. I've no problem with Vincent Kompany looking to further build the team to compete in the Premier League after having previously assembled a team last season for the Championship. I'd imagine Vincent Kompany's response to your journalist's question, "that was your opinion..." would be something along the lines of "yes, that's my job..."CrosspoolClarets wrote: ↑Thu Feb 22, 2024 3:37 pmAgree with that but for shorter term things it doesn’t help with how evasive he is now and we do seem unique at it.

Re: Aaron Ramsey injury
The Club have no obligation whatsoever to disclose personal information to the public. I don't ever recall seeing a list of colleagues who were off sick and what condition they were in during my working life.
It IS an obsession with some fans to believe they are entitled to know everything going on within the Club.

The NFL literally have the best reporting of injuries in world sport.
Each team gives a mandatory practice report - if players participated or not and why the trained or not, with a detailed breakdown of injuries etc.

Re: Aaron Ramsey injury
I think you are getting confused between GDPR (which is a legal minefield) & patient confidentiality. If he was to go into some great detail about a player’s medical situation then he could breach the latter. But telling the media what kind of injury he has suffered is not a problem.

Anyway, whether it’s legally OK or not, I agree with posters who don’t understand why fans feel they have to know everything. He’s injured, for a long time, and I don’t need to know what it is.

If it was I do not think there would have been so much inconsistency in the reporting of injuries or illnesses across not only different clubs but also the inconsistency across how we have reported injuries at Burnley….and even inconsistencies for injuries on the same player.
I think in some cases there is a good reason to not discuss the details of a players injury - and that could be from a players or the clubs point of view (or both). Don’t have an issue with this whatsoever.
I don’t especially have an issue with our approach now - but I would prefer to have an update on our individual players to have an idea of whether it’s short, medium or long term and also the odd update as to how they are progressing with key milestones like “back in the gym”, “back on the grass”, etc.
I don’t think it’s that relevant whether we are a massive club or not…..whatever the size of your club there is a good proportion of supporters who would like to have an idea of who is available to play or when they might be. That’s always been the case for as long as I have ever followed football - and it’s the same in the amateur game too.
I have seen contracts (recently)for semi pro football and not seen any reference to what you are inferring around data protection yet the coaches and managers are doing interviews on Twitter giving specific details on injuries of players.

Re: Aaron Ramsey injury
Think “argument” is a bit strong but personally I’d like to know which players are available or when they are likely to be available.
I‘m not interested in the detailed specifics of an injury but the seriousness of it and how long they are likely to be out is important.
How much debate has there been about team selection this season on this board ?
If a player is not being selected due to injury or not being fully fit then surely that’s if interest to the same people who seem to be a lot more bothered than I am about team selection !!
If fans were not interested in this kind of thing why would the likes of Klopp, Pep be giving so many updates on the injury situation in their press conferences ? Why would their fans be anymore interested than our fans ?

If fans were not interested in this kind of thing why would the likes of Klopp, Pep be giving so many updates on the injury situation in their press conferences ? Why would their fans be anymore interested than our fans ?
How do you know that the fans are any more, or less, interested than ours are?

If you don’t think it’s data protection then what do you think it is?Big Vinny K wrote: ↑Thu Feb 22, 2024 5:38 pmI do not think it is data protection.
If it was I do not think there would have been so much inconsistency in the reporting of injuries or illnesses across not only different clubs but also the inconsistency across how we have reported injuries at Burnley….and even inconsistencies for injuries on the same player.
I think in some cases there is a good reason to not discuss the details of a players injury - and that could be from a players or the clubs point of view (or both). Don’t have an issue with this whatsoever.
I don’t especially have an issue with our approach now - but I would prefer to have an update on our individual players to have an idea of whether it’s short, medium or long term and also the odd update as to how they are progressing with key milestones like “back in the gym”, “back on the grass”, etc.
I don’t think it’s that relevant whether we are a massive club or not…..whatever the size of your club there is a good proportion of supporters who would like to have an idea of who is available to play or when they might be. That’s always been the case for as long as I have ever followed football - and it’s the same in the amateur game too.
I have seen contracts (recently)for semi pro football and not seen any reference to what you are inferring around data protection yet the coaches and managers are doing interviews on Twitter giving specific details on injuries of players.
And in terms of semi pro contracts, I wouldn’t expect them to stipulate anything with regards to clubs disclosing player injuries because players are protected by GDPR.
