Early Injury Report
By: Sabin | April 4th, 2007Final hurdle for Revs – Soccer – BostonHerald.com
From today’s Boston Herald:
While [Pat] Noonan looks set to go Saturday, standout starting central defender Michael Parkhurst is still recovering from a freak left shoulder separation he suffered while swimming in the ocean off Cancun, Mexico, three weeks ago. But Nicol said Parkhurst does not need surgery, and is only a few weeks from returning.
That’s good news, especially if Twellman ends up starting forward. He and Noonan have been working very well together. The other paper in town (Boston Globe) mentions the following information for Saturday’s season opener against the Chicago Fire:
- - Khano Smith is questionable due to a hamstring injury.
- - Michael Parkhurst could be ready to play (Shoulder).
- - Daniel Hernandez (groin) didn’t practice.
- - Shalrie Joseph (calf) could be ready to play this weekend.
I’m curious who would play central midfield without Joseph there, if he does indeed need to sit out, and Smith is usually a sub, but his speed is always a good thing on the field — if last season is any indicator.
I haven’t seen the Fire play yet, though, so I’m not entirely sure what the Revs are up against this season. Sounds like we’ll find out more as the week progresses.
This season is sounding like it’s going to be a good one, even if things in Revs-land could be interpreted as not-so-rosy. I’m excited about the SuperLiga, excited about the continued discussions of an SSS for the Revs, and generally optimistic about soccer in this country as a whole.
