Hoping for just an MCL sprain.
That's true. Might be the least bad option but we're going to miss him as LB.Very true. Luke Shaw is the closest. Did a very good job last season.
Seems bonkers. A partial ligament tear was such a possibility in that situation….why have him go back out. Criminal reallyThe commentator from my country said the same when you could see that Martinez was waiting to get back on the pitch. The commentator is a former professional footballer himself, and a similar situation cost him his career when he continued to play for a short time.
It was also the inner ligament of the knee, as it appears to be with Martinez.
Unbelievable that ETH and the med.staff would take such a risk.
The medial is a funny one. You can think it feels ok, then try to run and your leg will just feel like it gives way.Seems bonkers. A partial ligament tear was such a possibility in that situation….why have him go back out. Criminal really
Fingers crossed crossed for an MCL Strain, and 1 to 2 weeks to recover. Even a partial tear could see him back in 6. The way that the West Ham player put his elbow on the floor, meant that the full weight didn't fall on him, so lets hope we get some good news tomorrow.
Where is Malacia ?I would prefer Shaw to play at centre back because I shudder at the thought of Lindelof coming back but then we have no left back ffs.
He’s been very unlucky.Gotta wonder if he will ever be reliable
Great question.Where is Malacia ?
Yeah. He’ll be a big miss at LB if that’s what EtH decides to do. Might end up with Dalot playing there.That's true. Might be the least bad option but we're going to miss him as LB.
He was extremely reliable last year and for most of his career, until he broke his foot. Which can happen to any player. Then he broke down again because we clearly brought him back too soon and exacerbated the old injury. That’s just poor from the club.Gotta wonder if he will ever be reliable
Should think about selling him at this point
Please stop saying this, Gazza absolutely wrecked his ACL and tried to carry on.With Martinez, I don't think it's ACL as he tried to carry on.
Yep. That's how I fecked up my knee. Just out a brace on it and kept playing even though I knew something was very wrong. As soon as I stopped it became obvious very quick I made a terrible decision. Adrenaline is a hell of a drug.Please stop saying this, Gazza absolutely wrecked his ACL and tried to carry on.
Stuart Pearce tried to run off a broken leg.Please stop saying this, Gazza absolutely wrecked his ACL and tried to carry on.
This isShould think about selling him at this point
We seem to have no money and with his recent injury record we'd be selling him at a loss so we'd be replacing him with a worse player. Even if we decided this is the plan we'd need to get him fit and playing half a season to show he can do that and attract £50 million offersShould think about selling him at this point
And where is Bissaka?Where is Malacia ?
