Yeah just read up and it is a mandatory six day lay-off. I thought it was more for some reason. Shaw's case looks worse though. Hopefully it isn't as bad as it appears.
Luke Shaw injury for England | sustained concussion and returned to Manchester (6 day rest period)
- Thread starter crossy1686
- Start date
That was a very bad fall. He hit his head on the ground badly. I hope he's alright.
Feel so bad for him, just when things were on the up. Hopefully he's just knocked out and the rest a precaution.
I hate these pointless international friendlies, really wish some of our players would just pull out of these games.

Update: he's okay
He’s ok thank feck
Tyler just said on Sky that Shaw's come round and is fine... Panic over.
They said he's awake and on his phone ❤
Shaw awake and on his phone.
Huge relief.
Watched it in slo-mo, several times. Forearm smash to side of face. Shaw headed the ball and was watching the ball when the forearm connected.
Intentional? No. Reckless? Spanish.

Thanks mate have been rooting for him this season.
Great. Hopefully he'll be ok for Watford game, if not will be the next one surely. I actually was quite relieved when I knew it was just concussion and nothing related to his knee or leg.
He's fine. Panic over. Doesn't look that bad now I've seen it. His arm takes brunt of it.
They said he's awake and on his phone ❤
Good news! The way he landed looked absolutely horrible, hope he hasn't got a concussion.
Hopefully we bring him back home - he doesn't need to play against Swizterland.
Glad to hear he’s come to and is seemingly ok. Probably be out for a week to 10 days as you have to be careful with head injuries. Shouldn’t really affect his start to the season hopefully.
6 days without competitive football is FA guidance.
If it's not that bad he could train and make Watford.
They said he's awake and on his phone ❤
Fantastic!!
But I never feel too confident someone with a head bang is fine until after a scan. Hopefully this is nothing to worry about.
Don't care about Watford let's hope he's ok to play in a couple of weeks
He'll be fine a few days or so. Good news.
Same - sounds counterintuitive but a head injury is better than a leg injury, or muscle issue. Hopefully he’s just got a fuzzy head and he will be back in a week.
so he's okay but suffered a concussion? That's a min two weeks out isn't it? Or isn't the concussion confirmed?
If it it concussion FA rules state 2 week minimum I think.
I'd say Young will be a certainty for Watford now, which is a game he should be bang up for TBF.
Glad to hear that he is awake and well. I hope that he continues to be brave and work hard. He's had a really hard time but has shown himself to be a fighter. I hope he's back soon.
Great news. He'll miss Watford but the rule is perfectly sensible. Hopefully his bad luck is over now.
If he scores another brace I don't mind...
I meant in general, two weeks is fine IMO. Could have been way worse. Glad that he's ok.
Sorry what do you mean by this?
Wouldn't surprise me one bit if Jose gets in the dressing room to reassure him even go for the scan with him. For all the shit he gets he's a caring bloke about his players' welfare
Hoping for the best. Concussions are fecking nasty, one of the most underrated injuries in terms of stupid and lost they can make you feel afterwards.
Waiting impatiently for a comforting tweet from Luke and the scan. Won't we know the extent until tomorrow or Monday?
Fecking international games! Not one ineternational break without a injury..Should just remove those useless games.
We are fecking cursed, feck this shit
Its not even about international breaks anymore. Other clubs' players play these games and don't have any problems. It's always us for some reason. It was the most predictable thing really that Shaw would get injured. Someone in the match thread even asked what minute will he play up-to before he gets injured.
It is still international teams??
