stewiek2 Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 No need to rush him. We've got enough in defence til Pau Torres joins in January Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lapal_fan Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 He won't be playing this season, if we do his recovery right. I'm trying to remember when it happened/what actually happened... Completely gone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, so about late February /March before he is available. All depends how quickly he heals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be nice to have him back before the end of the season though, for a young player having a whole season off must be psychologically quite a hit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He also has to get used to the league and the tempo, he didn’t really have time to do that before the injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True he isn’t young for a player, but he’s a young person under 30… I probably should’ve said young person Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He might be doing light exercises with a ball again but he’s miles off full training. January return would be a miracle from where he was in august.

lapal_fan Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 He'll have just start rehabilitation on learning to walk again, there's almost 0% chance we'll see him this season. He fully ruptured his Achilles, there's a good chance he'll have lost quite a bit of pace, even when he's 100%. It was an awful thing to happen to him, especially with a new club at 29. Can't wait to see him again though, he'll be a proper warrior. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usual criticisms aside, he was quite open and factual about player injuries unlike Smith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWARLEY2 Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 I saw a video yesterday of him doing some kind of exercise with what looked like about 150 kilo on the bar. He isnt doing that unless he is coming on quickly with his recovery.. I have no doubt he will not be as strong as before , but the science around injuries is getting better and better. Used to be that a cruciate was game over for a player. These days the effect is negligible once it has been rebuilt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fightoffyour Posted November 9, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted November 9, 2022 Told you he's like the T-2000. Only reason he's not playing again yet is because our medical team are performing round-the-clock experiments to learn regeneration techniques for other players. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
