Liberato Cacace (Wrexham | Wales)

Finishes 0-0, full game Libby.

Think Wrexham’s goals conceded this season, verus mins him on the field is remarkably low. Some such stat

Match highlights. Libby's main involvement getting back to block, and save the day after a team mate gives the ball away.

Note he was solo in wearing a black armband. Guessing in support of his AWs mate and fellow Wellingtonian Marko.

Lovely touch that from our future Captain in Libby.  

Wrexham host Charlton

Wrexham win 1 nil. No sign of Libby.

Hopefully just managing his hammys after a month or so out injured.
He played mid week.

Fresh calf tightness for Cacace

Phil Parkinson: “I don’t think it’s too serious, but it looks like keeping him out of the international games".

Wrexham travel to Ipswich

No Libby.  Wrexham draw 0-0 away at Ipswich Town 

Still no Libby as Wrexham beat Bristol City 2-0.

Kinda worried about these injuries. For someone who hardly ever missed a game before, Libby is having trouble over in Wales. Surely a Premier League aspiring team will have the talent to find out what is happening and prevent further issues of this type

Saw an article recently rating all Wrexhams signings this season - about 16 from memory. Rated 1-10 and Libby had a 7 so has obviously done well when on the pitch. Injurys are a concern but the championship is a long attritional season so maybe getting him 100 per cent is a priority.

Wrexham host Blackburn

No Libby again.  Draw late with Blackburn 1-1

Wrexham travel to Preston

1-1 draw and still no Libby

Wrexham travel to Hull

Any news on the injury Libby has? When’s he due back? Is it something that will fully heal?

Last week's Niche Cache.

Meanwhile Libby Cacace skipped another match for Wrexham (who drew 1-1 with Blackburn to stay tenth... only five points behind Millwall) however it sounds like his calf issue is almost gone. Could see him again very soon.  

This website list Cacace as 'in doubt' for trip to Hull City tonight.

Wrexham will host Forest weekend Jan 10th, R64 FA Cup.
A possible Libby verus Woody matchup.

NC Libby update.

Phil Parkinson: “Libby is making progress, that's all we can say with that. We had him re-scanned. The injury is healing how we'd expect it to. He'll be back hopefully for the Christmas period at the very least.”

Cheers.

#LibbyforChristmas

I imagine Christmas in the valleys and hills might be something? Do they get a white Christmas around Wrexham? Likely to be some top notch choirs and carolers I guess. Wales being famous for their singers and actors.

Yeah North Wales could be the go.
3.5 hrs driving time from Swansea. 3 hrs from Peterborough. Only an hour from Port Vale. Longer for Eli, being 4 hours from Motherwell.
McCowatt to drop in?

If there is snow about may pay for all to take the train to Wrexham.
Antonio Cacace there to create something festive but low calorie off the La Bella Italia menu?

Championship games Dec 21st & then Dec 27th. SPL 21st & 28th.
Might have to be an early devout Catholic Christmas dinner day on the 24th, and just a single pint of Brains each.

Other long time UK based AWs pros like Tzanev, Stanger, Crocs and Wood will have their families about.

Into 2nd half and Wrexham trail 1-0 at Hull

No Libby.

Edit - Wrexham lose 2-0.

You are quite the party planner Coochie….

Or a shandy with teammates after training and back on the coach to the next game! No breaks like these continental leagues…

Someone should make a little Christmas cartoon ‘I’m dreaming of an All Whites Christmas/ Somewhere up in northern Wales.’

Or stop motion if preferred.

Reminiscing of some OE Christmases in London Town back in the day. Sleeping drunk by mid arvo

Orphan Xmas are the best. Free of family drama

Wrexham host Watford

2-2 draw. No Libby.

Next a Welsh Kiwi derby at Swansea. Hopefully Cacace is fit for that.

Can he make the pine for the Welsh Kiwi derby this weekend?

Potential Kiwi derby. Wrexham (15th) host Sheffield United (18th).

He's on the bench

Goals galore as Wrexham win 5-3
Libby an unused sub

Blades up 3-1 at one stage

Bindon a full game, the oggie and a yellow.  He also gave away the penalty for Wrexham’s 5th goal. Awful game for him.

All part of the learnings this tough season

Neither him, his CB partner or Blades’s GK with high Soccerway ratings

Highlights. You see Libby in his yellow bib post match at very end of the video.

Commentators were talking about wrexham lacking a natural left wing back and playing midfielders out of position there. 

Really hope to see a fit libby back soon. A nothing season so far for him.. 

Wrexham host Preston

Wrexham up to 11th with a 2-1 win.
Libby an unused sub.

Friday
Wrexham travel to Blackburn

He’s back. Libby on at 84 mins as Wrexham win 2-0 away

3 wins and a draw for AWs overnight in The Championship 

Great to see- need him to take salah out of the game at the WC
