Foden back in training / on the plane to Munich

[bluebarry]

Should have followed my bad parenting example. We didn't realise my son's appendix has burst and left it so late that he didn't need surgery, just antibiotics to stop infection!

Must not return until fully well. Rest up Phil.

That is the main thing. Make 100% sure he doesn’t come back too soon. His health is more important than football I’m afraid.




*Retires to a hidden room where you can’t get at me for thinking anything is more important than football!! *

In American Football, Joe Burrow ruptured his appendix last July, and the initial prognosis was for him to be out 1 to 4 weeks Hopefully Phil will be back swiftly

 

[Eccles Blue]

You would think he would withdraw from the England squad before the surgery not after.

We’ll the report I read said emergency which makes me think it came on suddenly and maybe burst. I hope I’m not being pessimistic. :-)

How long was he actually out for ?

 

[Blue Mist]

You lot know far more than me about appendicitis. I was hoping he'd be OK for Saturday!

Hopefully just a micro keyhole surgery than a big cut.

Big difference in healing times between the two.

Get well soon Phil.

With this news I think the league and Champs league are gone again as I counted on peak Phil making the difference and was coming into form. Who knows maybe we get through some bad games with a good result.FA Cup achievable still.

Gutted.

He’ll be back in 2/3 weeks so hardly a season ending injury. Grealish playing well, Alvarez capable of hurting anyone and Mahrez is pretty reliable. We have more than enough to cope without either of em for a couple of weeks.

Think sometimes they treat it but if they think it might burst they get it out, just key hole surgery mine burst before they got it out though, then it’s quite nasty and needs a big cut to get it all out.

I had a perforated appendix when I was in my teens, Doctor said I was lucky to have survived, glad Foden has had surgery before any complications.
