It’s going to be middle of February before he is starting minimum imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s going to be middle of February before he is starting minimum imo. Plenty of players are back playing 9-12 months after an ACL, no? Mings seems an odd example. He took a long time to return. Wasn’t even back in matchday squads a full year after doing it. Whether Botman will be anywhere near his best is another matter. Some players seem to come back ok. Some take a while to get back to it. VVD, for example. Hard to tell when we have no idea what stage he is at with his training or how his recovery has gone. Has all sounded pretty positive so far.

I’d imagine he’ll still get eased in. But I was thinking he was just back with the group doing more controlled drills and stuff like that. Not actually playing. Albeit with reduced contact compared to a real game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geordie Ahmed Posted Friday at 10:11 Share Posted Friday at 10:11 That is brilliant news, thought he'd do well to be playing by Feb but looks like it will be well before that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HawK Posted Friday at 10:14 Share Posted Friday at 10:14 Burn's done a good job in Botman's absence, but we really miss his recovery pace on that side of the defence. Hopefully he comes back just as fast as before. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledGeordie Posted Friday at 10:21 Share Posted Friday at 10:21 The combination of Botman coming back and Tonali sitting will make a massive difference Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBG Posted Friday at 11:06 Share Posted Friday at 11:06 Not to be too judgemental, but I'll be writing him off if he's not fully up to speed in his first game back after being out for ten to eleven months. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defensively he’s been absolutely excellent, but there’s no question having Botman back will improve us significantly when we have the ball. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll have a sigh of relief that our main backup CB/LB will be Burn at some point over Kelly. Hell we could go a back 3 with Hall and Tino as wingbacks if needed too.
