    Just looked at physio room and they have A/C down for just two days.
    I reckon that must be a mistake, more likely to be two months with
    his history.

    Physioroom are basing it on Moyes' press conference in which he stated taht AC was in full training with the squad today, although he is not a shoe-in for Monday as he lacks match fitness.

    I hope he doesn't start: Stoke defence usually have him in their pocket when he's fit...

    AC on the bench as an option can only be a good thing. Fully match fit or not he always brings something to the party.

    Too true Wombat. But I`m not sure a Party 7 and a family bag of Twiglets is what we really need at the minute.

    Lanzini out injured, ligaments?
  • sweepy23sweepy23
    Was reported on SSN
  • sweepy23sweepy23
    No Lanzini and maybe no Arnie is a shocking start to the summer
  • MrsGreyMrsGrey
    And elsewhere ;ok

    http://www.goal.com/en-ae/news/lanzini-to-miss-world-cup-after-knee-ligament-injury/21dvczyjodjz158u35hot4qgs

    .... based on the national teams tweet: 'Manuel Lanzini suffered, in today's morning training, the rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament of his right knee.'

    Have to go all out for Mario now, surely.

    Horrible news for Manu. Wish him all the best for a successful recovery.

    He must be gutted...
    So am I ;angry

    Poor lad. Fingers crossed he doesn't need surgery, if not he could be fit by the start of the season, if its really, really bad, Alan Devonshire bad, he could miss a whole season

    I'm still clutching at the straws of hope that accurate diagnosis isn't usually possible until a few days after the injury has occurred and the swelling/bleeding has stopped.

    So it may not be as bad as all that ;pray

    And if it is, let's hope he's a quick healer ;puzzled

    From physioroom: ACL reconstruction knee surgery has evolved beyond recognition since the first ACL repair in 1963. Development has continued since then and the latest surgical technique uses a strip of the patella tendon from the patient's knee as a graft to replace the ACL. In addition to advances in the surgical procedure, there have been advances in post-operative rehabilitation that have seen a return to sports activity, in most cases, in less than six months.

    Aslef, I think (from what I've read about the injury) professional athletes nearly always need surgery on torn ligaments because the level of stability achieved by non-surgical rehab isn't good enough for playing sport at a high level.

    On the up-side, as per that earlier quote, repair and rehab methods are so much better now.

    At least 2 months of the time he is out is in the off season, as opposed to if he had got the injury in September where he could have missed practically the whole season
  • sweepy23sweepy23
    I heard that the injury didn’t happen today but last week and they’ve confirmed the diagnosis
  • YeoldhammerYeoldhammer
    Out till he Jan window when we are in the relegation spots so he can get out upon recovery.

    sweepy, I was just going off this : 'Manuel Lanzini suffered, in today's [June 8] morning training, the rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament of his right knee.'

    so you may be right.

    straw of hope
  • IronHerbIronHerb
    I was wondering how long it would take to go negative on this news. Look on the bright side, we won’t be selling him.
  • sweepy23sweepy23
    I hope so Mrs G but I think this is post scan etc
  • MrsGreyMrsGrey
    And at least it happened now and not on the last day of the transfer window ;beer
  • ChappersChappers
    As a club we are so so unlucky - once again we will start a season without a full quota of players to pick from. I'm gutted that it's one of our best players even more so.
    I was equally looking forward to seeing him in action in the WC. A real shame for the lad.
  • VorselaarhammerVorselaarhammer
    Typical only 3 players on international duty and of course one has to suffer a major injury....

    Timing is everything ;doh
  • baracks_a_hammerbaracks_a_hammer
    Let’s be honest though - he didn’t have the best of seasons last time round
  • stevesteve
    ;angry so now we loose players in june ;angry
  • Giant_HammerGiant_Hammer
    It's never ending isn't it. ;weep

    It's a terrible thing to happen for Manu but at least from the club's perspective it gives them time to factor it in to their transfer dealings.
