Quad is not a nice injury although mine was accompanied with a badly torn meniscus.

Predictable though and whilst we are short in forward areas, at least we don’t have to pay Ross sick pay any longer.

He didn't have a proper pre-season, didn't play at the world cup. He won't play much at all this year, count me surprised if he gets to double figures. 

I liked Stewart when he was fit, but the when he was fit thing is the big issue - and without a pre-season or proper conditioning I think Swansea have walked into a bit of a disaster there. For their sake they're lucky they kept Vipotnik

Ross Stewart and fitness are the modern day "your taxi is two minutes away"

Agree. I totally get that he wanted to take time to assess his options and search for that longer contract but having absolutely no preseason felt like a big mistake. Probably more of a mistake for Swansea than Ross because it’s going to write off a chunk of year one of that three-year contract, he’s got the money locked up

Vipotnik started on the bench again for them. He started their first game of the season and hasn’t started in the league since.

I bet he does now the transfer window is shut.

I feel sad for him really. He obviously doesn't get injured on purpose, it's just he is one of those players who has weaknesses in his body that mean he will unfortunately never be able to fulfil the potential he has. It must be so frustrating for him that whenever he seems to be progressing, his body sets him back again. 

That said, glad he won't be in their line up against us as we know the likely outcome of that!

Yes I feel the same despite the way he left.

It must be so depressing for him to pick up injury after injury.
