Well Savage has played the game and the other bloke watches a lot of football so I guess they've seen that type of injury before?
Martinez Injury | Out for the season with metatarsal fracture
- Thread starter Pogue Mahone
- Start date
Absolutely gutted. I really hope it isn't the Achilles.
All 5 of his subs failed and I knew when Pellistri came on that we’d get an injury. He should have been smarter today and underestimated Sevilla
Yes it was bad luck with injuries and freak OGs but United invited that bad luck by taking their foot off the gas
I’m sure the beautiful bald bastard will avenge it next week
Logging off for the night and some fantastic bastard on here better have posted a tweet saying it’s a muscle strain that’ll keep him out for a month when I come back on tomorrow. Please and thank you.
He didn’t look like he’d had a worse injury than a broken leg pain wise.
Yeah it was a bit of gamesmanship from them imo. I'm sure they're concerned for their team mate but I'm sure they're also roaring to go after their first goal scored.
Quite embarrassing that our medical team let them do that.
Redcafe doctors hard at work assessing (guessing) the injury.
Before you all write off our season and assume the lad may never walk again, lets wait for actual news eh?

It is 100% Achilles tendon injury, hope it is only a tear and not a total rupture.
The replay looked like the outside of his foot sort of got caught under himself with an awkward slip, certainly didn’t look like an Achilles injury
He was wincing and he couldn't walk but he could have been in a lot of pain, he doesn't really strike me as a cryer.
At this point, we might as well make an injury update megathread....
One of the best and most consistent signings we've had for a very long time and this happens. Just hope it's not the worst because he is truly a fantastic player. Gutted for him.
This is the dose of copeium I'm drinking tonight as well. His hand does move around to the back afterwards but he grabs the side immediately.
I think it could be ankle ligament
Mental posts
Don’t think we’ll see him until October at the earliest.
Is it not a Metarsal injury?
Any idea when we'll know? This is really shitty
If people will only start seeing that now then they're thick as pig shit
Certainly worse than VVD injury and we know he is only a shadow of his former self after coming back. It’s like with Stephen Kings pet cemetery, they come back, but they aren’t the same anymore.
Dude, we have a bucket load of CB’s. Bailly back from loan next season will be like a new signing
Random people on Twitter are saying metatarsal which is what I want to hear right now.
I’m not really being dramatic though. I’ve seen countless Achilles injuries, they all look just like that. And in that case you have to essentially plan for him to be a non factor next season as well as this season. Bare minimum
His reaction reminded me a bit about Rooney's when he did his metatarsal against Chelsea. To think a broken metatarsal would be the best possible outcome now
Please please please just have badly jarred something however I fear it's bad. First thought was a metatarsal.
Season is fecked if both he and Varane are out. When is Shaw due back, id rather see him at centre back than the chuckle brothers
It's worrying his reaction, he was in tears, which suggests he knows it's bad. Don't like how he was rushed off the pitch, should have properly immobilised it and used the stretcher

Looks like it's his metatarsal, bad but not that bad, thank feck!
I thought this, he grabbed the side of his foot not the back, and he seemed to twist on his foot not over stretch Achilles. not sure why everyone thinks it’s his Achilles, I really hope they’re wrong.
But that was due to a shocking tackle from behind, not just running on his own with no one near himHis reaction reminded me a bit about Rooney's when he did his metatarsal against Chelsea. To think a broken metatarsal would be the best possible outcome now
Grabbed his foot, not heel. Didn't look like achilles to me.
I didn’t realise it was as bad as some in here seem to think. I was hoping he’d rolled his ankle or something. feck sake.
Yes, I watched it back just now and feel way less concerned. Still anxiously waiting for updates.
Ten Hag says we have to wait to know about the injury

Oh feck, terrible news.
Didn't look good and his reaction was fairly telling. Huge blow to lad and the team. Not just his quality will be missed but his leadership
If he's out for the season top 4 is in doubt we can't rely on Maguire starting
Surely he knows what area the problem is. Don’t understand why he wasn’t asked that.

I think if he doesn't make changes he's blasted for completely burning out his first choice lads. It looks to have blown up in Erik's face tonight but on another day we cruise through the last half hour and nobody has anything bad to say. The foot came off the gas before any subs were made, that's what I'm bloody angry with at the moment.
On topic, brutal when a lad goes down under no challenge. I hope Martinez isn't done for the season.
Let's just wait.... but blimey, what a night. This is a test.
