I'm hearing that he's injured, apparently nothing too serious beyond an ankle sprain but having endured the sad sagas of Diaby, Wilshire and Cazorla, fearing the worst is almost my default setting when it comes to injuries.
I don't think that there would be many arguing that Papa has not been our best defender full stop, but thank god that Emery had the foresight to play Mustafi and Holding when he could have persisted with the Greek knowing that he has been our standout defender.
If the sprain is such that Papa is not going to be available for Leicester, at least we won't be going into it anxious as hell about Mussy and Rob being thrown together as an unknown variable or have greater concern beyond the existing when the German is playing.
Holding has hardly put a foot wrong this season and against Fulham Mustafi was almost unrecognisable, and to me, Papa has been the catalyst for this. And to think some were writing him off before the season even started.
