troon_villan Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 Couldn't give a shit about his wages. Don't think I've ever been so upset over an injury since Nilis. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sexbelowsound Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 (edited) France’s medical team are optimistic the injury is not as bad as first feared after he went down making a challenge in the second half. He went to hospital and the Under-21 coach Pierre Mankowski insisted it is too early to tell if Amavi’s season is over.He said after the game: “The first information that we have available is that it is a knee sprain. We don’t know yet if the ligaments are ruptured. It’s too soon to say that.”Should the injury be serious it would be a major blow to the new manager Rémi Garde.The 21-year-old defender joined Villa from Nice in the summer as part of Tim Sherwood’s summer rebuilding but Garde replaced Sherwood earlier this month with Villa bottom of the Premier League.Amavi has made 12 appearances and was recalled by Garde for his first game in charge as Villa drew 0-0 with Manchester City to end a run of seven straight defeats last Sunday. http://www.theguardian.com/football/2015/nov/13/jordan-amavi-aston-villa-injury Edited November 13, 2015 by sexbelowsound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted November 13, 2015 Moderator Share Posted November 13, 2015 That article says nothing of note. It starts with 'optimistic' and then says it's too soon to know if the ligaments are ruptured. Eh yeah, thanks, let's wait and see then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arj Guy Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 Hutton cannot do a job at left back. Unfortunately our squad is so poor that when a player like Amavi gets injured, his replacement is nowhere near PL level 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villan501 Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 (edited) If and i say if his season is over then ashley cole is the replacement didnt garde play in same team as cole surely the ex arsenal factor would be the only way hed come to us. Give him contract till end of season richardson not upto it at all. Just checked left season before cole started Edited November 13, 2015 by villan501 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7392craig Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 I had a slight tear to my ACL a few years back. 4 months off work :/ Lets hope we have a young lad who can fill in until January as I have no hope in Richardson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cliffy Biro Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 Theres a good reason Cole hasn't been picked up already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharkyvilla Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 I think I'd rather have Zog at left back than Richardson. Good news that they think it might not be as bad as it looked, though it did look like he'd almost had his leg decapitated so it's all relative and it still could be very nasty. Fingers crossed for him that it's a few months rather than a year or more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaJ100 Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 Well he'll have access to the newest and best treatment so that will speed it up. But still looked bloody nasty. Also, could a knee dislocation leave a permanent risk of recurrence ala luke moore and his continually dislocating shoulder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlwaysAVFC Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 I had a slight tear to my ACL a few years back. 4 months off work :/ Lets hope we have a young lad who can fill in until January as I have no hope in Richardson. What does it feel like? How long before you could walk properly on it? I ruptured mine flipping a golf cart and my 19 stone mate landing on my leg. I finished the round of golf playing the best I ever have. I just thought i'd twisted my knee and after a lot of swelling and several days limping I got over it and thought nothing of it. Over the next year or so every so often my knee buckled probably in a direction similar to Amavi, which again resulted in some swelling and a few days limping, eventually I thought I better get it checked out.

dubliner Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 I'd recall Bennett. Yes he's not great but I'd have a lot more faith in him than Richardson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StefanAVFC Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 ACL is weird one.It's fixed after a short amount of time (relatively) but you can't twist on it for a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VILLAMARV Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 Cissokho recalled? Joe Bennett recalled? No-one actually knows whether they can be or not.But we do know that neither of them are registered, or can be added before the first of January, to the squad. So even if we can and did recall them they wouldn't be available for league games until then anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delphinho123 Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 Letting Cissokho go was an uttlerly ridiculous decision anyway. He's a decent player and a great option off the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avfctom89 Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 What about llori I'm sure I heard he can play anywhere across the back, is he injured ? Surely better option then richardson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tinker Posted November 13, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted November 13, 2015 Looked like a dislocated knee, which causes damages to the ligaments. I had it happen to me a few times, took an operation and some physio work to stop it re occurring. If his ACL isn't damaged then i would say 8 weeks - 10 weeks. Play Richards at LB........ Richardson can do a job and we have Crespo, Cissokho and Bennett. There are more important players that could have suffered injuries. Still hope he has a quick recovery. its a definite blow to us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
