Mantis Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Yeah the fact that he's got his leg in a brace doesn't mean anything beyond "he's injured and won't be playing for a few weeks at least", which we knew already. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AV82 Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Didn't Steer and/or Heaton rupture their achilles? It took them an awful long while to come back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Posted August 14, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted August 14, 2022 If you rupture your achilles isnt it a stretcher job coming off the pitch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Achilles is a brutal one but it's not the career killer in most likely was even just 10 years ago with Benteke At 30 it's awful though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a substantial part of the 'new' team, and a supposed rock in defence to shore us up a bit. Why can't we just have nice things? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 I guess it depends on how bad he ruptured it but I seriously doubt we'll be seeing him soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daweii Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Keep in mind an orthopaedic boot can also be used for a bad sprain, or any number of non-achilles based lower leg injuries. If it turns out it is an achilles injury then that's very unfortunate and I wish him a speedy recovery, but until we know more his ankle injury could be literally anything. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villatillidie95 Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 was a chaotic nightmare at the end there for us, you would hope he wouldnt have to hobble of himself or put any weight on the injury if it is what we are thinking....didnt look good at all the organisation with tending to all the players yesterday, seemed like a very disjointed thing where they were flitting from one player to another, i think at one point one of them was pretty much abandoned...just seemed very strange and tbf the staff have probably never been in that chaotic a situation, but surely walking off like that could add time to the injury, we don't know how much that might affect things, if it does at all 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danceoftheshamen Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Typical Villa Happened to Adama T too didn't it? against Notts County in the cup. Our new players almost always get injury issues almost as soon as they kick a ball for us. Bailey vs Everton Last season for example. Heaton & Wesley both doing their cruciates it just goes on & on.

WallisFrizz Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 I remember Louie Barry being put in a protective boot and crutches then being back fit a couple of weeks later, sometimes it is a precautionary thing. All the noises are that it’s Achilles though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
