On Saturday, February 10, at Portman Road, Carlos Corberan’s team salvaged a point against the Tractor Boys; nonetheless, a second-half 2-2 tie was overshadowed by another disappointing moment for Dike.
Only ten minutes after coming on as a substitute, the American striker fell down with what appeared to be yet another serious injury, and McAnuff later declared that the Baggies forward was “in pieces” as he exited the pitch.
Only ten minutes after coming on as a substitute, the American striker fell down with what appeared to be yet another serious injury. McAnuff later revealed that the Baggies front was “in pieces” as he exited the pitch.
He said, “He was absolutely distraught, and we saw him come over to not far from where we were sitting and he was absolutely in pieces,” during a speech on Saturday, February 10, at 14:59 on Sky Sports Main Event.
“I believe that after a protracted injury, you want to recover and put yourself right, something he has never been able to accomplish.
He would have played a significant role in that to help his team and relieve some of the strain, and I believe that fits in with what we discussed today regarding his inability to move up the pitch. Since you don’t feel accountable to the team when you’re injured, he clearly feels an obligation to them.
“Very disappointed to see him acting like that.”
“Feel for him a lot because it’s so hard,” Earnshaw concurred. It’s the hardest thing about being a football player when you get hurt, recover, and then it happens again or you get something else because I believe he pulled his calf there.
Why me, I wonder? There, you’re just in your own universe.
West Brom will be ‘distraught’ to lose key man Daryl Dike
While the majority of West Brom fans will be grieving for their great striker as he recovers from yet another serious injury, they will also be devastated by the loss of another important player for their playoff drive.
Due to Dike and Josh Maja’s extended absences off the field, Corberan has been severely lacking in attacking options this season. As a result, Brandon Thomas-Asante is The Hawthorns’ sole viable striker.
Although Dike’s injuries may not be as serious as initially thought, the striker’s response indicated that he felt a serious incident had occurred, and his teammates were clearly upset as well.
But in the interim, Corberan will need to figure out how to keep West Brom in the running for the playoffs by using the resources at his disposal.
In other West Brom news, the most recent Sky Sports development at The Hawthorns will infuriate Baggies fans.
