Another Mike Ashley gamble pays off :thup:

 

Hope you´re not serious :lol:

 

We are down to 2 fit CB and 0 fit LB. We are playing a RB/RM out of position already, you dont think theres been a massive gamble on our paltry defensive cover?

The length of time he is out will depend on whether or not they allow it to heal naturally or go for surgery.

If they allow it to heal naturally it would be under a month, but as there is a lack of blood flow often surgery is needed (6-8weeks)

 

Pretty much this.  Had a quick read up, could just be a small tear and not require surgery, would still swell up if that's the case.  Fingers crossed it just swelled a little bit and it's precautionary, from the quotes ('Santon's knee looked a little bit unhealthy after training), it sounded like he completed the training session, and then it swelled up after.  Would hazard a guess that a larger tear would stop him from continuing?  Perhaps it wasn't that bad #overlyoptimistic

 

I'm hoping this is the case.

We only have what Pardew said, sounds precautionary. Don't let that get in the way of a good knee-jerk reaction though lads.

 

Yeah, not usual for Pardew to initially play down the injuries and then reveal the truth. :thup:

 

Alright mate you're right, he's going to be our for fucking months. Better?

Not really.

 

If we're "knee-jerking", then we're only knee-jerking at our luck.... not at Pardew or the player, because it would be unlikely that this is their fault. (Well, except for not having a good LB back-up. In truth, we needed 2 LBs when Enrique left.)

Well the part of the meniscus that was torn has already been removed :http://www.inter.it/aas/news/reader?N=33636&L=en

Therefore part of the shock absorbancy in his knee is no longer there, so will be vulnerable to occasionally swell up when his muscles havent been tuned up properly i.e. not having played much football

Aha! Pardews fault for not playing him against QPR then. Pardew out!  :angry:

Just a post as my previous topi got locked up....

 

Yeah, this Davide Santon thread is at the top. Maybe a title change wouldn't go a miss then so people can determine certain things on the player? I mean people can't really be chatting about his recent performances. It's nice for the link to actually take you a discussion on that particular subject as opposed to a blanket of chat...?

 

Just my opinion.
