He came back as planned, but guy went from like a u21s game where he looked rusty as hell, to straight into 90min tough prem games. No slowly getting up to speed.

Lush Vlad Posted March 6, 2025 Share Posted March 6, 2025 4 hours ago, Menace said: Howe does talk some shite when it comes to injuries like If you choose to believe our new ITK. Who did call both this and the Hall injuries before news broke. It sounds like he did it in training recently. So he was back and seemingly nearing a return. The ‘not 100% right’ or whatever Howe said after he trained Saturday must have been his knee falling off Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPERTOON Posted March 6, 2025 Share Posted March 6, 2025 Don’t think he was rushed back, I do think he was played more than planned though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No slowly getting up to speed. I thought it seemed wishful thinking that he’d be back so soon and said as much on here. But he played in that U21 game, as well as 2-3 others behind closed doors games. He was back training a long time before that and all. It just wasn’t mentioned all the while. I’m sure our well thought of sports science, performance matey and his team of experts know a bit more than us on here. If he was cleared to play, how long are we supposed to leave it in the hope that he doesn’t get injured again? Also, I may be wrong. But when you injure one limb, knee, ankle etc. Isn’t it fairly common that the other side can overcompensate and you end up doing the other side to some degree? It’s shit news and we need to hope he hasn’t become the next Ledley King with his knees/injuries. But seems like people are just looking for someone to blame and piss and moan, like usual. Hardly feels like last year. When we clearly were gambling on fitness and rushing players back. A bit like Ange at Spurs did a few times this season.

kingxlnc Posted March 6, 2025 Share Posted March 6, 2025 The irony of course is that if Kelly was here we’d have cover for both Botman and Hall even when we sell well we can’t do it right Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotRich Posted March 6, 2025 Share Posted March 6, 2025 Just looking, and assuming he misses the rest of the season he’ll have played 71 times in three seasons. Woodgate played 37 in half the time. Absolutely woeful record. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No slowly getting up to speed. I'm not on expert on ACL injuries and I have no idea what his rehab was, so I'll have to pass on that. Seems like finger pointing for the sake of it though.

gbandit Posted March 6, 2025 Share Posted March 6, 2025 Seriously doubt he was mismanaged this time (the issue may have been the original mismanagement last season). I imagine the issue here is more to do with Botman’s body Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine the issue here is more to do with Botman’s body My issue is how they handled the injuries last season. It was clear he was playing severely injured in at least one of his games last season and he looked to be carrying something for months. Hopefully this surgery sorts out his other knee and he can then have a full pre season for next season. Edited March 6, 2025 by El Prontonise Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
