He should have been taken off immediately though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
black_n_white Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Looked more like ligament damage than a twist from the pictures. I don’t expect him back for at least a month, hope I’m wrong though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledGeordie Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 (edited) (Physio head on) Looks like ankle ligaments to some degree but let’s hope it’s not too serious. The fact he was able to try and run it off for a bit is a positive sign as opposed to being helped off straight away. Fingers crossed let’s just wait until they re-assess.

54 Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Good thing with the ankle is that it generally heals relatively quickly especially if its just a sprain, the issue however is that in the medium term its very easy to cause it to reoccur, hopefully its a managed properly.

Gallowgate Toon Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Gutted for him - thought he looked right up for it as well with that dirty pass. A very timely reminder that we need reinforcements. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
timeEd32 Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 My guess is even with good news we won’t see him again this month. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theregulars Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 I once twisted my ankle playing football and could not put any weight on it. It blew up and was super purple but was playing again 3 weeks later. The idea of running on it for 30 mins was totally out of the question. May be totally irrelevant but hopefully “just” a twist.

Ikon Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 (edited) Pure guess, I’d say a month. Hopefully much less. Edited January 15, 2023 by Ikon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

UncleBingo Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 I ruptured my ankle ligaments in 6 a side and didn't play for about 7 months. I was 20 years older and about 4 clem heavier to be fair. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexf Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Howe did say transfers would be injuries permitting. Well then, Eddie get on the blower to the owners and go get an extra quality midfielder. ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abacus Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 (edited) Weren't we already looking for a midfielder once Shelvey got injured? Maybe I imagined that. Definitely need someone else creative in the middle in the squad and we probably already did even before this, as hard to replace as he is.

Displayname Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Arent these type of injuries either really bad or something you can shake off in a couple of weeks? Really dont think he could play out the rest of the half if it was the bad kind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest reefatoon Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 (edited) I’ve done that before when playing and it bloody smarts. Was out for about 8 weeks as I knackered the ligaments. Saying that, he will be getting slightly better treatment than I did Edited January 15, 2023 by reefatoon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
