Where's this thing about his mental health come from?
A cyst seems like a strange cover up for other problems- because it looks silly. Surely if it was a cover story they'd just say he's done a ligament?

I don’t think the cyst line is the main reason he’s not playing. And in the wake of the Caroline Flack story, I’m looking more at the mental health of Pritchard being possibly one of the reasons he’s not playing so I’d be very careful in hammering Pritchard when it’s quite possible that we don’t actually know the full facts. If there is a mental health issue behind all this then surely he has been receiving help and possible medical treatment .If so why is it taking so long for him to show improvement . It for me it just needs addressing asap .

Where's this thing about his mental health come from? It's supposition. A hypothesis as to why it's taken 3 months (so far) to recover from what seems like a fairly innocuous injury. A cyst seems like a strange cover up for other problems- because it looks silly. Surely if it was a cover story they'd just say he's done a ligament? Presumably because a ligament injury could indicate longer term physical issues. Or maybe he genuinely just has an unusually troublesome cyst.

Surely if it was a cover story they'd just say he's done a ligament? The cyst is an issue, DC went into some detail about medical investigations a while ago. Pritchard has been out for quite a while and it may be a confidence issue playing with a known problem which may worsen. He will eventually either have to decide to risk it, find a medical solution or pack in playing. I think he may be currently struggling with the first of these options but I don't know why. It is only my opinion but if he is training and the Cowleys want him in the team it seems like the most likely.

He's been out a while, it does take some time to get your fitness back. Quaner has been back on the grass longer than Pritchard and he still hasn't featured Hopefully both will be ready next week and the days of Kachunga being a guaranteed started can be a thing of the past I’ve changed my mind, we’re going to get relegated 🤷♂️🤣

Is it only me that thinks that the situation we are in, let’s shelve the slagging off of certain players until the Summer when the Cowley’s will overhaul the squad. With some players out of contract I’d imagine they’ll be trying to impress Town or other clubs for their futures.
Lads like Kachunga have given so much to our club and yet some still slate him. Between him and the mercenaries such as Mbenza, Sobhi etc I know who I’d want in a trench with me.

Many sources suggest his attitude is lax. Not something you can attribute to Kachunga.

He has a different approach on the field in terms of how he controls his effort that’s all. He expends it where it might have value. All he really is, is a footballer not suited to playing in a struggling team that’s under attacking pressure for 75%+ of a game. Wrong signing at the wrong time, hardly his fault.

Between him and the mercenaries such as Mbenza, Sobhi etc I know who I’d want in a trench with me. How do we know Mbenza wasn't struggling mentally with living in a completely different culture, no friends or family around him, a load of money he has no idea what to do with, love for a game that has been his whole life which is now going down hill as he can't settle or motivate himself anymore due to his personal circumstance? We'll stand by the other lad though who has done as much for us, is it just because one is English and the other isn't? From a footballing point of view Pritchard is worse because he has performed before for other sides but hasn't done it for us.

I suppose that's one way to describe it... One goal & one decent cross in 18 months suggests he didn't find many opportunities where expending any effort might have value...

Hasn't he scored as many, all 3 went on loan before he got his second. Alternatively, they've scored 3 to his 2 as Sobhi has scored twice for where he's on loan 😉

We can’t be declaring footballers of our Championship club as lazy just because they weren’t good enough to make a difference as part of a particularly rubbish and unbalanced Premier League squad. He scored as many as Kachunga in half the appearances (and probably comparatively much less given his were often fleeting sub appearances)...whose to say he wouldn’t be good enough in this division. His team were losing to PSG the other night, he came on, they won a point. He’s not the hopeless case he’s made out to be, he was just playing for a hopeless team managed by a disinterested and then a hopeless manager.

I can't agree with the Pritchard hatred.
Him and Kongolo signings were what kept us up in 2018.
WBA away game says it all.
