He's a professional athlete. If he's not injured, he will be as capable of 2 games a week as any other professional footballer.

Sadly he appears to be too injury prone and also take an inordinate amount of time to recover. We need to cut our losses and get rid in the summer.

Needs to be sold on now I’m afraid. We can’t rely on somebody who is so injury prone. Shame as he is talented

Was hoping he'd be shipped out on the window. Not that i dont think he's a great player but apart from the odd cameo he's offered little in his time here.Id been looking forward to Defour/Brady/Lennon ripping it up a bit this season but alas...

He's thrown it all away a bit like Aidie Randall did all those years ago.

Both Brady and JBG are fit to be considered according to Seans pre match press conference.Defour picked up a minor calf tweak in the last match he played in.Lowton out he has a small chipped bone in his toe.

Defour interview indicates he is ok. Only Mr D says otherwise.

Odd.

Doesn’t his song go

He cost quite a bit
He is never frigging fit
We’ve got Steven Defour

There’s a reason why a player of Defour’s pedigree plays for Burnley

We used our massive incoming transfer announcement to mask giving out our injury update during the press conference.
Southampton won't know what the hell is going on now, totally bamboozled.

It's a great bit of Tom foolery.
