He really shouldn't have been allowed to play on, I thought that as soon as I saw his ankle turn like that, it just wasn't worth the risk of potentially turning a minor sprain into a serious injury. He was never going to be able to run it off.

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.


Adrenaline and a desire to keep playing would have carried him for a bit. He knew he was done before the half even ended, which is worrying.

I tore my tp? tendon and I couldn't run on it for nearly a year without pain and weaknesses. Basically couldn't walk on it for 6 weeks. Hope Bruno heals better than me ?

The minute he started limping when the ball was passed to him we should've taken him off, he was brave to play that full half but i hope it didn't mean he aggravated the injury, these take time to recover and i really hope it's not as bad as it looks.

Rasford was limping for 20 min.  Came out and played amazing 2nd half

His foot didn’t get planted so when he rolled it his foot could move with him. That freeze frame doesn’t look good but it’s amazing what you can get away with without too much of an injury. 
 

Hope for the best, prepare for the worst.  Use this as a discussion with the owners  to get a midfielder in.

 

I know you can’t really see but on the team photo after the match the strapping didn’t appear to suggest a huge amount of swelling and that’s say an hour or more afterwards. Wishful thinking perhaps.

Yeah, it looked at the time that he should have gone off much earlier. Eddie said that he tends to rely on the player's judgement, but that can't always be the right call. Unless a player can shake a knock off fairly quickly (and Bruno's mobility was obviously impaired for the rest of the half), then he should go.

Hopefully precautionary, but I remember Trippier like this and then a lengthy spell out 


Trippier had a fracture this looks more ligament based given the mechanism of injury. A severe inversion sprain can sometimes include a small fracture where a small part of bone is also pulled away but not often. The thing with ankle injuries they can look very severe initially but people recover quite quickly, it really depends on the grade of I run to the ligaments. I’ve treated plenty in clinic where people recover quickly (not elite level sport though) but some can linger for a while.

 

At a rough guess he’ll be out minimum two weeks (best case scenario) more likely 4-6.

You’re better off looking at the video, his ankle is at that angle momentarily. It doesn’t get trapped so there’s less stress/ resistance. Broke mine in 2 places when mine got planted and I rotated it, had countless sprains when not planted.

 

I’m hoping 2 weeks max and tweaked ligaments.
