So hopefully back just in time for the busy festive period!

Colloquially, in football at least, a 'broken leg' tends to mean either a fracture dislocation or a compound fracture. Basically, a horror injury.

A fracture is more likely to mean a smaller or cleaner break, which may even be able to heal without an operation. But that's purely semantics. It's worth waiting for more information.

So, if I understand you correctly, a broken leg can mean a fracture but a fracture is less severe than a break. Hmmm...

Nope but have fractured a bone so I reckon I'm qualified enough to make a post on a forum about it. If we only commented on things we'd studied for years and did as a profession it'd be a quiet place. If you ever have some advice for Pep this season I'll come and ask if you're a football manager, eh?

Nah, I just google "broken bone".

First Mullock, now Sam Lee. Feels like a quick turnaround but strong chance that he’s just had his initial checks.

Nice to have some positive news, though!

If it is a couple of months it isn't the end of the world but considering how good he has looked it might still be the difference for him carving out a default starting position or not. He has looked that good that I wouldn't have ruled him out of being our best performer early doors. Gutted for him

maybe in english, don’t know. where i live a broken bone and a bone fracture are absolutely the same thing. i even checked with a doctor family member now coz i was curious.

Any medical professionals here? Aren't a fracture and break. EXACTLY the same thing

Calling Mr Whelan to the thread!

 

[Mr. Shush]

I'm gutted for him. CityXtra reporting a prolonged absence. Damn.
