It's a close call against Rashy's goal contribution.I think he’s been our player of the season. Incredible player.

It's not often Martinez faces someone shorter than himself.Tweet

Wish he’d have lamped him. But would be a shame to miss him for three games. He’s fantastic"Maupay eres un tramposo. Espero que el Everton baje."
Certainly looked that way, which means no more football for him until next season. He's made a real impact this season and been among our best players, so it's a real blow.People saying his achilles on Twitter? I might actually cry.
They can have the 4th too, just not the achilles!I pray to god for it to be the fifth metatarsal
If it's a ruptured achilles, then yes, it's awful news.
There was research done for both the NBA and the NFL, and although 72% (NBA) and 64% (NFL) of the athletes resumed their career eventually, there was a marked regression in both physical performance and statistical output. Essentially, Martinez can return, but if it's a ruptured achilles don't expect the same Martinez. Given his height, his aggression is critical to his winning duels, so if there's a decline of any kind someone like Lisandro will be hit very hard.

Because anyone who has done one knows what it looks like, it looked like one. No one around, pulling up like you were shot and no real pain but the look of desperation when it hits you.I'm not sure what makes people think it's Achilles tbh. He was holding the top/side of his foot, not his Achilles. Looks likely to be that he fractured the last metatarsal to me. Still a season ender, but doesn't impact next season at least.

Yeah was just rewatching replays to see exactly what could have happened. No chance it was metatarsal, probably Achilles as you say. Originally I thought he rolled onto the side and held the top of his foot but he looked back at his heel and not the side. Welp. That's waiting for 24/25 for a title challenge then I guess. Shaw the centerback coming full time I guess. Maguire almost certainly will stay now too.Because anyone who has done one knows what it looks like, it looked like one.

Thank deck for that
by the way he touches himself it looks like metatarsal/peroneal tendon. He goes straight to that part of the body, and his foot kind of twists itself a little before the injury
In that time the season will be overTweet
