Disappointing, I've liked what I've seen so far. Thankfully those "out for the season" reports seem to be false. Still 4 to 6 weeks is significant, especially at this time of the year and with Carrick out too. These injuries are so frustrating. :mad:
 
Torn knee ligament, yet only 4-6 weeks? Wouldn't it be closer to 4-6 months if his knee ligaments were torn? Way too soon to know the extent of the injury anyways, theyre probably guessing. We'll find out more in the next few days probably.
 
If we were actually doing well I'd be furious but the fact that we're shit and piling up more and more injuries its gone to the point of being comical :lol:
 
I really don't think we're going to catch a break this season. It seems like as soon as one player returns from injury, we have another one, or even two, taking his place!
 
From twitter ..

Confirmed by Dutch television station NOS: Daley Blind has torn his knee ligament. He'll be sidelined for 4 to 6 weeks.

From NOS. At Least a month. Initial diagnosis is a tear in the knee
 
Since i'm a positive person, i need to say that it is at least 4 to 6 weeks but it could be 4 to 6 months, at the moment they only know that his knee is damaged.

Depends on which ligament. Full ACL tear? Yeah, you're looking at 6 months minimum (possibly more). Minor MCL tear? 2 months at the most typically. The word "tear" is fairly vague. It's the complete tears, where the ligament is entirely severed, that require surgery and long recovery times. "Tear" can also mean the ligament is only partially severed (seems to be the case with Daley), which in some cases can heal on its own or with minor surgery. Either way though, the recovery isn't nearly as lengthy.
 
Wasn't Carrick's groin not meant to be that serious? We need him now more than ever..
 
Thats why we need a big squad with dependable players. Injury prone players + has beens such as Fletch and Ando need to go

Unfortunately the lack of europe has meant us trimming the squad. I think Fletch and Ando will be gone. If by some luck we do get europe we will seriously need to build this squad up. Rafael, Jones and Evans will be wetting themselves if they don't get fit soon and stay fit.
