Manager: Otacon
Team:     Empyreon FC

Is he Cursed ?

Yes, its quite true that lightning doesn't strikes the same place twice, but for Alastair Ness critical injuries seem to never let go.
Once more the Heart of Empyreon midfield has been injured for at least 3 weeks.
" Its quite a painful loss, more than the draw against Backstabbers which we deserved to win. I know its tough against Backstabbers, and that too away. But the injury to Alastair Ness has been of more concern at the moment. The doctors are suspecting he has fractured his ankle, which means no football for 5 weeks, let alone running. The tackler ( Phil Ogden ) deserves more than that yellow. though the club will not take any action against him. after all, its football and things happen now and then."

This season has been injury plagued for Empyreon as 1 player gets injured every 3 matches. Due to such poor fitness levels, Wins are going to be costly for Empyreon in the end.

When asked who will don Ness's role for time being, the manager said " I don't think any player has the quality to take Ness's position. being the star midfielder of the team, I doubt f we have any player of such high quality. yes, we do have Grubb, Duxbury, Appleby and even young Wotton is there when called upon. I guess I will have to change my tactics till Ness is back."

Empyreon FC face next Manchester United FC, and that game will be at Home."I guess if we beat them at Stadium Arcadium, we will have a decent chance to change the face of the title chase. They are just a couple points ahead and it won't take time till we overtake them. The team has enough quality to cope up with Ness's loss." said the manager, in a tense mood.

This is the 7th time in his career that Alastair Ness has been critically injured, twice a metatarsal injuries, twice knee injuries and even got his shoulders and head injured before. maybe, some black magic has affected this talisman player.
