Thought it was quite an innocuous injury, but looking at standard timeframes, it could be a 4-6 week healing process.
Would be a huge loss if so. |  |

Wouldn't say 4-6 weeks is standard.
If it is a mild dead leg he could easily be back for Saturday. |  |

According to google "2–3 weeks for mild cases, while moderate-to-severe injuries can last 4–8 weeks or longer". |  |

It really depends on the severity of the muscle damage. The benefit Matusiwa has is the nature of his role, he's not an explosive winger reliant on pace and straight line running.
Ironic after treading the yellow card tight rope for so long he might miss a few games through injury. |  | | |

Should be much less than that depending on severity and given the rehab we have available. Should imagine he's a major doubt for next couple of games though. |  |

I've been advocating a three man midfield for the Norwich game in the absence of Matusiwa. Drop the number 10 role and have the pace of Clarke and McAteer on either flank supporting a lone striker. I'd be interested in your view. [Post edited 8 Apr 10:05]

I agree with this but chances of KMac changing formation at this stage of the season are less than zero.
For all his many many wonderful qualities, he is rigidly wedded to that 4231. | | | |

Yeah I don't think he's ever played a three man midfield. Not even in the Premier League where it was obvious we were being over run in that area. | |

Playing Nunez in the 10, is the closest we get to three central midfielders and why our record with him playing there is very good.
If we start with Neil, Taylor and Nunez at 10, only leaves us Cajuste on bench if Azor doesn’t make it.
I did wonder whether Azor was already carrying the injury before the game on Saturday, looked like his left leg had some strapping on it. |  | | |

We kinda only play with half a 10 if Nunez is in there anyway I think, so it would probably amount to a small tweaking of his role. I think if we were going to see an all-out system change from KM we'd probably have seen it before; with seven games left I think he'll keep it broadly the same with minor adjustments here & there. | |

That's a fair point. Nunez has made it a hybrid role. I would like to see Nunez actually play just behind Neil and Taylor/Cajuste, spraying the ball about the pitch rather than just in front of them. | |

I think if it was a serious one then he would have been off much earlier. |  | | |

I used to think dead legs were the things I used to administer in the playground and couldn't think why players weren't back after about 20 mins. |  | | |

You missed off ‘a few days for Azor because he’s invincible’ |  |

A bit of Ralgex before the next game will do the trick.  |  | | |

If its 3 weeks out for a dead leg I can only imagine it's at least 2 months out for a well administered wedgie |  | | |

He's a tough lad, he can go off after 60 when we're 2 up! | | | |
