Guest firetotheworks Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Even if we´d got a deserved point today, I'd still feel like I do now. Totally devastated. We can only hope that it's not as bad as it can be. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest GAMMELL Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 I'm clutching at fucking straws here but did Samir Nasri come back from a similar fib/tib fracture last season and was out for a little over 3 months?? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtype Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Whenever I hear about him in the news now I'll think that in some alternate future he was player of the season 2010/2011 and has three great seasons with us, then moves to Real Madrid netting us 30 million pound which Chris Hughton uses to build a top 7 side. Of course, no doubt the media will completely sweep this under the rug and De Jong will be allowed to continue to do whatever he (and Mancini) wants: at least until he injures someone from Man U, Chelsea, or Arsenal, of course.

Memphis Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 I'm clutching at fucking straws here but did Samir Nasri come back from a similar fib/tib fracture last season and was out for a little over 3 months?? Just the fibula, I think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallowgate Toon Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Gutted... This is one of those days where i just feel like giving up on football. Honestly we've got some crap players this could happen to but it happens to our best and our main hope for the season. I hope he gets well soon and is the same player when he returns.

KaKa Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Everytime Wenger complains about tackling, so many people have a go at him about it. Whinging Frenchman etc etc etc. Today we have experienced it for ourselves and it really sucks. Imagine how often Wenger and Arsenal have had to deal with this sort of thing. It's terrible. It's why I have always been a huge supporter of Wengers stance. As much as they all deny it, a lot of managers send out players to do this sort of thing. Zamora, Dembele and Ben Arfa already this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cronky Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 He may be out for a while, but it's usually easier to make a complete recovery from a clean fracture. Knee or ankle ligament damage is the more likely career-stopper. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

On top of recovery he'll have to build up strength in the left leg, progress to kicking a ball before being assured that it can sustain contact.

cp40 Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Quote from Blefescu via Face-ache. Martin Atkinson told Hatem Ben Arfa to get up today after De Jong's horror tackle which broke his leg. For that and the two blatant Newcastle pens that he missed he should never ref again. anybody heard owt about this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zamora, Dembele and Ben Arfa already this season. I couldn't agree more...I absolutely hate it when cunts like McMahon defends tackles like against Aaron Ramsey as just bad timing or there was no malice. Fuck me if you go in with a scisor tackle like that, I don't care whether it's reckless or bad timing, you're out to break a leg. It's like throwing a molotov cocktail into a room full of petrol and say oh I didnt mean for the place to explode! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
