Tiotes Witch Doctor Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 Think his career will be practically over before its begun, hes worse then Kieron Dyer for injures and you really have to feel for the lad, clearly frustrated you could see from his tears when he was stretchered off the last time. Can't see his career ever getting off the ground Think he would be great if he could stay fit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HaydnNUFC Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 On his birthday as well. Really sorry for him. Well done to Pardew for playing him when he shouldn't have been in his breakthrough season. Cunt. That has potentially ruined his career. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 Just a few minutes, literally before Disco nod head posted the bad news i was about to make a boring joke that he got injured today when he was turning around to give his auntie a piece of cake. He just can't get a break Poor bastard.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 Absolutely ridiculous how bad this lads luck is when it comes to injuries. Unfortunately, think this one might be the final straw in terms of his upward development though as it'll probably mean he's now out for the season? Definitely need a couple of wingers brought in come January, especially with Atsu jetting off to the AFCON too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shays Given Tim Flowers Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 Get him training and see if he merits 45 minutes against Leeds. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
afar Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 Wow that's terrible for the lad. There's real potential there, you can see it but just can't stay fit Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 Seen it a few times when people have done in their ACL when about to recover from foot injuries. Injury after injury takes its toll and the ACL is the killer. Given his position, attributes and standing within the game the impacts of an ACL means his career is on a knifes edge.

James Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 Get him training and see if he merits 45 minutes against Leeds. Then see in the 45 mins if it is worth keeping him on for 90. Because a football manager knows more than a doctor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tooj Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 Even though I don't think he's as good as he has been hyped to be on here recently it's still not good news. We should be looking to strengthen in January, but to somebody that can do a job longer term and not just for the final few months of the season.

joeyt Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 When's he out of contract? We've just given him a 5 year contract. Him and Vuckic will be tearing it up in our pre-season friendly against York City in July 2019 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magpie Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 Absolutely gutting for him. Those saying he's made out of glad etc are out of order in my opinion. ACLs can happen to anyone at anytime. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 As I said a few posts up I've seen ACL's follow a fair few foot injuries with footballers in the past I suppose if you can't twist or flex a foot then the knees are going to do a fair amount of the twisting and take the strain. Obviously I don't have the data in front of me but questions need to be asked on whether Aarons was truly ready to return to training. Whilst Rafa has put much more faith and responsibility in Dr Paul Catterson his experience in football is very limited and if we could bring in a second more experienced doctor to work alongside him and give a second opinion I think it would be highly preferable.

How do you define 'very limited'? He's been here for nearly 8 years and according to his website Paul has previously worked for the Football Association as team doctor for England Futsal, England U17, England U16 and at the World University Games with the Great Britain University Football Team in 2005. which doesn't suggest 'very limited' experience in football.
