According to Red Henry in the Sunderland v Charlton thread. He's usually correct. So I make it, we have 11 fit first teamers (not Academy) to start the season. Relegation beckons if we don't strengthen soon.

Just hoping it’s not torn or ruptured, and if it’s his ACL, it is only strained or maybe even not his ACL and it’s other tissues around it.
If it’s worse case, this season is a complete write off, I genuinely thought Forster-Caskey and Fosu if they stayed fit would be our shining light this season. Real shame.
And to think there were so many people on the prediction thread saying we'd finish top half or a top six finish.
I'll be amazed if we fill the bench on Saturday as we start a season possibly with no new signings starting for one reason or another. When did this last happen?
All it takes is a bad injury or two to JFC, Pearce, Bauer or Aribo and we really are screwed.
It's looking very much like a relegation scrap if true.

You cant be certain before a ball has even been kicked.
A few players break through like Lookman, Gomez and Poyet did, still time to get loans in and who knows what will happen in January.
Maybe I am to optamistic but I cant imagine writting a season off before a ball has been kicked.
TBH if I ever did that, it would probably been the end of football for me, I will always have faith and believe in my team.

Come on you reds
Last time I knew we were in trouble like this was watching us get beat 0-4 at Sint Truiden pre-season the year we got relegated.
The squad somehow even looks thinner than the squad that travelled to Bury two seasons ago and lost 0-2
There aren't any more Lookman's, Gomez's or Konsa's either, we keep blooding the youngsters hoping to get lucky because there is nobody else left.
The only thing that keeps me going right now is knowing Bowyer and JJ are doing everything they can within there power to get the best out of the squad.
Until Roland goes it will keep getting worse before it gets better.
If running a football club into the ground was the recipe for success it wouldn't be just Duchatelet and a handful of other idiots doing it. Season written off - I'm pretty certain of it. If Bowyer keeps us up he is a hero.
My brother tried to call him yesterday but he hasn’t responded which is really unusual. I suspect we won’t hear anything until after Sunderland as we won’t want to give too much away prior to the game.
Saw the rumour in the preview thread last night before going to bed and lost half an hour's sleep afterwards. I was very excited when the fixures came out with our first game selected for TV but the past month has been anticlimax to say the least.

Every comment on this thread has been doom abd gloom, but nothing has come out officially yet
