He must have been a hard bugger. I did my ACL when I was 30 and the pain was excruciating. I couldn't put any weight on it at all. teh only good thing about that was the morphine they gave me after the operation.
Smalling and Hernandez injuries

Chelsea complaining about offside decisions 
It was a terrible challenge on Hernandez and although his ankle bent badly he seemed to be more concerned with his shin/calf when talking to the trainers. Hopefully hes ok but in reply to plechazunga saying he walked off, players with torn cruciates and such can walk off looking ok so I wouldnt read much into that....oh right exactly Commadus

Anderson walked off and he had done his acl in. I sincerely hope Hernandez is not seriously hurt and we don't have Arsenal medical team

That's possibly even too fair of your, but that's basically what he's implying.
And getting a bad call, or 5 bad calls against your team is no reason to try to break someone's shin. Pretty petty stuff from Boas, hard to imagine SAF not getting blasted if he said something like that.
Which of course he never would.
That is the only issue for me to be honest
avb's comment about cole is even more ridiculous than cole's tackle.
there's been no update so i guess no news is good news.

The more I think about it I just can't believe he meant to connect the two. Maybe it's just one of those things managers say, trying to draw attention back to the tiny bit of ground the has to stand on, the 'we were screwed by the ref' ground.
You know, the jounos just want to ask questions that will make you look stupid and weak, so when they ask you why the team played so crap, you say, "Well we didn't get any calls and so that put out guys off and it was hard for them to calm down," and you've at least deflected some of the attention from the players.
So when they bring up perhaps their worst moment as a team, Cole's challenge, maybe he's trying to deflect by bringing up the bad calls.
But it comes out like a vague threat.

Hernandez could be back for the game against Stoke so says his representatives
great news if true. glad it is not a long term injury after all.
we also could have welbeck back as well. even if hernandez is available maybe he should start from the bench as a precaution.
Good news for Hernandez - could have been a lot worse, but not so great for Smalling. With Rio and Vida still out, we could have done with Smalling, especially with Stoke on the weekend.
no quote, wait for fergie confirmation, but i like to think both hernandez and smalling will be fit for the stoke game
what about the first goal?

SSN reporting Hernandez will return to training on Wednesday, according to his agent. Great news if that's the case.
