By resting for 3 months he might have a chance of making the Euros. Whether that is a good decision for Jack and the club for the long term is another matter. Can you have surgery for shin splints?

foreveryoung Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 Don't think he'll be back for Palace either,. he has started loading in training, but the doctor needs to do a report, could be another 2 weeks. I reckon he'll get to play the last game of the season then go the Euro's. I think Gareth is about to have a new favourite the amount of time he has spent with Grealish down VP, if he is fit. he's going defo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fun Factory Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 Needs more than 1 game imo to go to the Euros. Even as a firm Grealish for England fan I would need more convincing the lad is fit. Keegan, Robson, Beckham, Rooney, England have had their fair share of picking unift players for summer tournaments. It usually doesn't work. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Needs to look after his career and his long term health. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but that can include the impact of your foot on the floor, or another device being pushed against your foot to imitate running. So Gough was partially correct... giving an example of loading rather than a description of what it is. Let's hope that whatever test they did comes back with no adverse reaction. If it didn't, then the silver lining of him getting longer to rest by missing the euros, would surely be outweighed by the long term concern that such a serious lengthy layoff is a career limiting injury.

peterw Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 7 hours ago, jackbauer24 said: "Not fit enough to start" This isn't a Grealish point, but I've never quite understood that philosophy with injured players returning. Especially key players. Surely, you DO start them. They then play 60 minutes or however long they can survive. But if you use them as a sub the risk of them breaking down after 5 minutes means you waste two subs. Furthermore, they can impact the game and get the team ahead - not coming on probably chasing the game. If they're not fit enough to start then my view is they're not fit to play. Is there a footballing reason for bringing injured players on at the end of games rather than the start of them? That usually only sits when you have a match fit player that has only had a relatively short time out, or has felt a twinge in training. Let me turn it around to you, would you have started Wesley rather than put him on the bench to build up his match fitness? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone more qualified in such matters feel free to correct me if I've got that wrong. What they usually mean in the physio world is a gradual recovery from injury as opposed to say 4 weeks rest then straight back in. Minor increases to volume of training and things like that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demitri_C Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 This wont be the last of this injury. It looks like a injury grealish will suffer with throughout his career. Thats why its absolutely critcial we learn to be able to play without him and not always be so relaint on him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
