I guess at this point it's just a question of how serious. Because undoubtedly the club are going to be worried if it's anymore than a couple of weeks (and it almost certainly will be), whereas with the kind of area that's affected I'd take two months now if you offered it to me. Yeah - maybe I am clutching at straws. I cracked my ankle bone once playing hockey (it remains cracked to this day) and kept playing for 10 minutes before realising that I couldn't see my boot and that maybe there was something wrong! I'm sticking with the "it's the second game of the season and so it feels worse than it really was" and he'll get the all clear, put his feet up for a couple of days and then be back for the weekend. Speriamo. (Which always sounds so much more optimistic than the English translation!) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh on the TV it looked like he hobbled off on his own. Maybe the physios are just short and so out of the frame! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't believe that if the medical staff were that worried that they would have let him stand up and walk off rather than either using a stretcher or having someone support his weight whilst limping / hopping off. Fingers crossed. I’ve seen athletes walk off fields with torn ACLs. It’s certainly possible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's Your Round Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 I know it’s law for an expensive new Villa signing to get badly injured every year, but I never expected it to be Carlos. Wasn’t he meant to be unbreakable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catanzaro Posted August 13, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted August 13, 2022 Managers normally play injuries down after a match.. so I think this is going to be a bad one.. I really feel for him if it is, he definitely had something about him,, another Laursen.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

striker Posted August 13, 2022 Visiting Supporter Share Posted August 13, 2022 Hope Carlos will be ok but if it’s a bad one Anderson at Palace would be my choice as a replacement. He’ll cost mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rightdm00 Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 If they need an MRI for an ankle injury then the Achilles is the concern and that is BAD news. Fingers crossed but not feeling optimistic about this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted August 13, 2022 Moderator Share Posted August 13, 2022 From the way they're talking, this one sounds like it could be months rather than weeks. I thought he'd just gone off with cramp - this is an unpleasant surprise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
