To my unqualified mind, that sounds like he's going to need an op. Doubt we'll see him before Christmas. Lawrence had an op and is now running, but hasn't taken part in any contact training. Assuming it doesn't go again, I would guess a couple of weeks and then a couple of U23 games. As with all other ACL injured players, I doubt that Bielik will be back to full speed this season. He'll probably start with some steady U23 apps over Christmas, but it seems to take several months of matches to get 'mentally' fit from these things.

Bold claim of yours to suggest Rooney has actually been walking these last few games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s a real concern re Waggy out of all the ones out he’s the big one imo he gives us that option through the middle .. yes he’s not the perfect fit but he’s huge for us re bielik I thought ... and Iv no idea why that Cos he’s back in training I’m sure I read end of October .... bugger lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to think Bielik will be back in the first team discussion next month tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stormprint Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 It doesn't matter who's injured the way Derby are trying to play, we called it possession football when we were kids and we did it when we went ahead, not level, away of taking the pea out of the opposition because you did nothing with the ball and it was as boring as watching paint dry to watch which just about sums up Derby's displays so far. We have the best overall squad of players in the division and none of them seem to be allowed to express themselves, Holmes needs to be running at defenders, Lawrence and Marriott picking up the loose balls in the melee, getting players in the box and not be frightened of taking chances by crossing the ball,pack the players in there because atm its all one way traffic at Derby's end. Even with 65% possession and sod all chances or opportunities. Angry RAM fan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think he would be back in a few weeks, though eased gradually into the side. Might be a reluctance to play him for the U23s! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
