Plymouth Argyle boss Ian Foster still looking to strengthen before transfer  window ends - BBC SportPlymouth Argyle player’s short-term future could be in limbo following injury developments: View

Injury has stricken at Home Park with just two games left of the Championship season.

Plymouth Argyle suffered an embarrassing defeat on the weekend at the hands of a familiar face.

Former Greens manager Steven Schumacher led his Stoke City side to a 3-0 win over their fellow strugglers, and an early injury made matters worse at the Bet365.

With less than 10 minutes on the clock, midfielder Adam Forshaw was forced off and replaced by Jordan Houghton, an issue that impacted Saturday’s result and could cloud the club’s judgement when it comes to the former’s future.

As time has gone on though, the atmosphere has taken on more of a positive swell towards the experienced Englishman.

The 32-year-old reached triple figures in appearances for Middlesbrough and Brentford whilst coming up just short of that landmark with Leeds United, showing just how valuable an asset he can be for Plymouth both on and off of the field.

There are a number of young players in green and white and so having a figure like Forshaw alongside them can make a major difference.

As a result, his injury against Stoke comes as a blow to Argyle in many ways.Plymouth Argyle boss Ian Foster still looking to strengthen before transfer  window ends - BBC Sport

We are still awaiting further news from the club as to the extent of the injury, although Director of Football Neil Dewsnip did have the following to say to Plymouth Live: “He tweaked a hamstring. There was absolutely no signs in training all week and in the warm-up. He just felt something, and there we go. I don’t know how severe it is, we will have to weigh that up. He’s incredibly frustrated – I think we are frustrated with the situation.”
