GORDON STILL INJURED
Craig Gordon has had quite a lot of bad luck when it comes to injuries and he has not been able to represent Sunderland since the defeat at the last game which ended in the score of 2-1. However Sunderland coach Martin O’Neill still has hopes that Craig will manage to make it to the number one position once he fully recovers from his injuries.
However he also made sure that he mentioned that Craig definitely has a lot of effort to put in to make sure that he manages to make it to the first team of the Sunderland’s and finally manage to hold a position in the Scotland squad.
The knee injury of Craig Gordon will probably be recovered within the end of this year, but there might still be some time before he finally recovers from the arm injury he obtained during the clash with Jermain Defoe of Tottenham way back in 2009.
Gordon has a long way to go before he fully recovers, but once that is done he should ensure that he manages to give his level best to ensure that he manages to hold the same position he had earlier. With football kept aside for over a year, Craig Gordon definitely has a lot to make up for. O’Neill does feel bad for him due to the fact that Craig was unable to reach heights due to the number of injuries that kept coming up one after the other. It seems that craig could be out for as long as 6 more months if the best Premier League odds are to be believed.
Although Craig has started training, there have still been instances where the arm injury is triggered again and this is a major problem. As of now, Craig has been doing quite a bit of work for BBC television and has not kicked a football for a while. Get well soon Craig.
