Injuries 2025/26 | Rodri back in “partial” training

What have pigs ever done to you? Pigs are very intelligent and honest creatures. Comparing PGMOL to them is doing them a disservice.

They taste wonderful though. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Bollocks
Oliver is responsible and should be investigated

That **** Oliver just ran past Gvardiol when he was rolling about in agony banging his fists on the floor. The club need to get answers as to why Oliver let play continue. I could see it was serious from the stands, Oliver would have heard the shouts coming from Gvardiol as well. What an absolute **** !!!

According to AI
Fibula Fracture: Types & Treatment
For a fractured fibula in football, bone healing often takes 6-8 weeks, but full return to sport, including rehab, can range from 2-4 months for simple breaks, while more severe injuries (like those with tibia involvement or needing surgery) can sideline players for 3-6 months or longer, depending heavily on severity, surgery, and individual rehab progress

is this what happened to Oscar?

It's Tibia, not Fibula.

No, different bone if Bobb's was Fibula.

 

[levets]

Was at the game yesterday
Anybody got a video/gif of the tackle?

On City website 8 min highlights. (Occurs at 5m 20s).
Innocuous challenge really, just very unlucky

Gordyola isn't having a good night!

 

[Sebi]

Hopefully back for the CL final (if we can get there without him).

You will get some with that :-).

 

[Gordyola]

It's Tibia, not Fibula.

Even worse

For football players, a fractured tibia typically means a recovery of 3 to 6 months, but can extend to 9-12 months or more for full return to demanding play, depending on severity (simple vs. surgical/comminuted), treatment (conservative vs. pins/plates), and individual rehab, with studies showing NFL players averaging over 350 days out, highlighting the long road back to peak performance.

Ref needs sanctioning….allowing them to kick shit out of us all game.

Get well soon Josko !

Yeah, and if it's down near the ankle there could also be ligament damage, it's a bad injury either way.

Hopefully it’s just a simple break and they are operating to speed progress even then it’s going to be towards end of season

 

[levets]

Was it the Palmer "challenge"?

No, Malo Gusto

 

[jimharri]

Dead right

We've all had them.


Some of us more than others!

 

[cleavers]

We won't see him again this season unfortunately.

 

[levets]

Yep, lower leg just above the ankle. Palmer caught him

No it was Malo Gusto… Check the ‘8 min highlights’ on website. Happened at 5m20s.

I have no medical knowledge, but Dr Google brought up a few studies that seemed to indicate there is a much higher rate of return to peak performance with surgery. I mentioned earlier my son’s friend who had surgery last week for a tibial fracture and he was told something similar. Hopefully it’s not an indication of severity and just a quicker path forward and it’s ready for next season.

 

[Snape]

Unfortunately, tibial fractures are known for complications and as surgery is required it's not a minor break.

 

[hilts]

James should have had two certain yellows

Not sure how that relates to the Gvardiol injury
