Wilshere, Shelvey, Huddlestone, Drinkwater, Dier and possibly Henderson now he's reinvented himself for Liverpool? Only three of those are naturally defensive. Three of those have played in The Championship since we've had Thorne and he was better than them all. He's better than Mascarell and he's playing in the Bundesliga for a mid-table team, in the German cup final and has been linked with a move back to Real Madrid. Thorne' quality but the only one out of that list he is better than is Huddlestone. I think he's our best player but he needs to prove himself next season. I'd also add that the likes of loftus cheek , Harry winks and chalobah are also now ahead in the England pecking order Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's almost as if he's pushed on from his first season of regular men's football. I liked him a lot, and and glad to see he's doing well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He gets lumped in with the team disintegration that season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was getting overwhelmed a bit before injury a bit but there was more wrong with the team than him. I kind of feel he gets a bit unfairly lumped in with the whole thing.

Martin = injured Buxton = injured Mascarell = injured Eustace = injured Grant = injured Thorne = injured That right there is the spine of the team. Only Keogh was fit. No surprise we collapsed.

Ashz09 Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 Glad to hear this. Can't help feel he's going to get injured after a few games or near the business end of the season. Hopefully he comes back the same player! xxxxxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also throw in Bent got injured too. People go on about the collapse that season but im not sure many teams would have been able to cope with such a lot of key players out at the same time.

Mafiabob Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 Going to stick my neck out and say George Thorne will never play for England Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnigmaRam Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 I don't actually think this will be a major issue. The latest injury was unrelated to his previous knee problems. With having basically a year off it may have been a good thing long term i have to be positive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really hope George comes back and fulfills his potential as a very decent player but also the truth is some players are just out and out unlucky in terms of injuries through their playing careers ,,, the one thing I would say with Thorne at this stage is it's important not to rush him to return to full fitness and 100% cut and thrust but rather take the time to build his fitness and confidence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashz09 Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 Please put wind blockers up and don't let anyone tackle him or breathe on him. I think we need to do what they did for Beckhams foot all those years ago. We'll do the same for Thorne. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
