Europa final is 7 weeks away. FA Cup final is 7.5 weeks away. Wouldn't end his season just yet.
Martinez Injury | Out for the season with metatarsal fracture
- Thread starter Pogue Mahone
- Start date
Considering what it could have been it's not too bad I guess? (obviously not a doctor and have zero expertise on this kind of stuff)
Still gutted that the guy will likely miss the rest of the season. I was thinking about his performance before the injury last night and how he barely ever seems to drop below a 7 or 8 out of ten. Such a remarkably consistent player, which seems very rare these days.

Isn't the metatarsal the Injury Rooney had which kept him out of the beginning of a tournament for England
Yep - I remember Beckham being on the end of a poor tackle. But Rooney's was more when he was running / challenging for the ball and foot gets caught
His season is over.
It's more like 6.5 and 7 weeks but yeah he could be in contention.
It was the Terry challenge no?
I think Paola Ferrara challenge
That's very good news. They should avoid to rush his recovery at all costs though, we saw what happened with Neymar.
Jesus they actually named a fracture after our very own Phil Jones.
Obviously Licha out for the season is far from ideal but considering what many of us were thinking last night, I can't help but feel somewhat relieved overall.
Shit, spent writing his obituary for nothing then
Wasn’t it Ricardo Carvalho?
I have a feeling we will see him in the stands with the fans.
Yes.
No it was Ferrara I’m sure … Carvalho was just next to the incident I spent months cursing Carvalho cz I thought it was him but then I realised it wasn’t
Who has confirmed that he has a fractured metatarsal? He might but I haven't seen anyone reliable report it. Amazing how dumb people can spread rumors on the internet so quickly.
That timeframe is just for healing/walking. It will take a lot longer for him to be able to run and play football.
If we make it to any of the finals it will be because his replacement has done ok, and it will not make sense to risk him being involved, other than for picking up a well deserved medal.
Don't rush it, and he'll be fine for pre season.
It's a final chance for Maguire, which isn't a bad thing really. If he doesn't perform over the last 10 or so games he can't have any complaints.

In future, all injuries will be named after Phil Jones.
Seems to be based on a tweet by someone called @estebanedul. No idea how reliable they are.
I think he has connections to the Argentine national team.
Retiring at 25 with a World Cup ain't too shabby
According to who?
Season over.
Shame his season is over, but at least there is hope he'll be back for pre-season and to kick on next year.
Sensible. Martinez is so so much better though. Harry is slow and lacking in confidence and aggression. You’re right though. If an 80 million quid player can’t provide cover then we may as well pack it up and go home
What a great season he's had. Excluding Rashford he'd be a contender for player of the season. Time for the lads to dig in and make sure his good work doesn't go unrewarded.
I mean obviously it's better than him being out for a year but this is still devastating news and with Varane's flaky fitness we're going to end the season with Maguire and Lindelof every week aren't we
From feeling hopeful of a comfortable top 4 finish and at least another trophy I'm begging the season to end now and hope we at least scrape the former

Lisandro Martinez fracture de cinco Anthony Martial bone a fide muchos panicos el todo caftardos y amateur doctora diagnosis el achilles con morta la careeros over. Erik ten Hag misso el importantes defensor por 6-10 anos el Qatari muchos dineros nuevo playa del improvements Maguire et Lindelof y healthos Varane de poco liability. Scorchio.
Thanks for clearing that up.
Jesus, we're really hitting a tricky patch of bad luck.
Well, partly that and partly the demands of a long, gruelling season.

6 weeks out? I’d have snapped your metatarsal off for that this morning
