Davide Santon (now retired)


Recommended Posts

Is he injury prone, or is it just bad luck?

 

probably the latter, with some history of injury (duh like all football players), but won't stop the usual suspect coming out with completely baseless theories that we only signed him because he was cheap due to his injury. Never knew an injury prone player could play 20-30 games a season!

Would be relatively happy with four weeks, thought it would be much worse.. still might be, but early signs look good.

 

As a couple have mentioned, Ferguson or Kadar need to be given a chance against Forest. Four more weeks of Raylor would be horrible. Sure he is out of position and maybe he will start getting his head around it over the next couple of weeks, but he is still clumsy, slow and shite bar his set pieces once in a while.

Surely being so young and already getting cartilage injuries doesn't bode well for a future without injury problems. Seems reading about other professional players of all types of sport (mainly Americans) although the operation is deemed a success, they struggle to come back without problems early on and it takes a very long lay off with high amounts of rehabilitation to make a full recovery from the injury. If Santon is still suffering since 2009 with this injury it may be he needs this full rehabilitation to be able to progress else we may be stuck with an injury prone player.
