Ok, ok! Just testing the waters.Yes it would indeed be the worst idea.

How long does that take to mend? One thing is if Argentina have any internationals in summer if will keep him out of them and will let him have a modicum of rest.Looked like a lateral ligament in the ankle to me, happened to me before just sidestepping on the pitch, quite painful when it snaps. Hopefully it's that and not the Achilles anyway.
oh my god. Is it that hard to say you just overreacted a little? It’s a lot better than anything that starts with “i don’t mind, I’m still right”I did? People said it was his Achilles and that he was out for the season, I said season? Try career.
Not really sure why you're laughing either, most people thought it was his Achilles based on what they saw, irrespective of what Robbie Savage thought on the matter.
But of course you knew better all along right? Couldn't have possibly been his Achilles last night could it? Where was this confidence before Ten Hag said he doesn't think it's his Achilles?
I think that was just 40 days and 40 nights mate.They did have Jesus out for 5 months or something tbf.
How did I over react to other people saying he’s done his achilles?oh my god. Is it that hard to say you just overreacted a little? It’s a lot better than anything that starts with “i don’t mind, I’m still right”

Not the worst. It'll heal, he'll come back 100% no concerns. Could've been Achilles, could've been lisfranc injury which has long recovery time with long term impacts, could've been ligaments which is multi month recovery, could've been a torn muscle which tends to have long term future injuries, etc... Just a metatarsal, it sucks for now but we'll live. He'll be fine for pre season.Tweet

Yeah probably out for the rest of this season but not as bad as we fearedFour to six weeks I assume (?) phew at least hel be raring to go for next season
We’ll get Uri Gellar involved Ala Becks - he’ll be back for the return leg.Four to six weeks I assume (?) phew at least hel be raring to go for next season
If it's his fifth metatarsal that'd be very unlucky/lucky.
Unlucky in the sense it's pretty freakish thing to break in the circumstances, with no contact, lucky in the sense it should be fine in 6 weeks.
Still think it's more likely a tendon.
Not bad.Tweet

Whatever you do dont google how Henke Larsson broke his calf out of nowhereMight be a stupid question but how exactly do you fracture a bone without physical impact? He was just running and collapsed- seems weird.
Just gonna quote myself from page oneI wonder if it was his metatarsal? He grabbed his foot, not the back of his leg.
Could have been weakened with contact on it previously and it just wore down and broke when he planted his foot.Might be a stupid question but how exactly do you fracture a bone without physical impact? He was just running and collapsed- seems weird.
I suspect Luke Shaw will be his replacement- Maguire will replace Varane when he’s not fitThank God. Maguire better step up then. He's wanted his chance, now he's got it.
Cut on the edge of his foot, too much twist/pressure/torsion on that outer metatarsal, fractures... I fractured mine when I was 13 or so, but that was when running I turned and landed too harshly on the outer bit of my foot and it fractured. This was more cutting, but probably similar. Took me 6 weeks ish.Might be a stupid question but how exactly do you fracture a bone without physical impact? He was just running and collapsed- seems weird.
Looked like he twisted his ankle to me, so maybe slightly off-balance and too much weight on wrong part of foot. Just a freak occurrence.Might be a stupid question but how exactly do you fracture a bone without physical impact? He was just running and collapsed- seems weird.
One one of the replays you can see that he kind of drives the front of his foot into the ground right before he pulls up.Might be a stupid question but how exactly do you fracture a bone without physical impact? He was just running and collapsed- seems weird.
Stress fracture probably?Might be a stupid question but how exactly do you fracture a bone without physical impact? He was just running and collapsed- seems weird.
Metatarsal breaks can be cause by impact or rotation.Might be a stupid question but how exactly do you fracture a bone without physical impact? He was just running and collapsed- seems weird.
Yes.5th is baby toe right?
You take that everyday of the weekNot bad.
yeah the replays had me convinced it was achilles. Afaik achilles snaps just hurt everywhere in the foot and heel initially. But I could be talking bollocks there as I’ve never snapped mine.Just gonna quote myself from page one
Please allow me at least a few minutes smugness before quoting a subsequent post where I convinced myself it was actually his Achilles after watching a few more replays.
Anyhoo. Season over. Not ideal but huge relief all the same.
Both were kicked but Becks did his Achilles at Milan when no one was near him.Fairly sure either Rooney or Becks fractured their MT in a similar way. One of them was kicked but the other happened without any contact.
A six week lay off isn't going to impact his careerIf it’s a small fracture he’ll at least keep strength in his leg. When your muscle gets torn it impacts peoples careers so this shouldn’t I hope.
