Leroy Sane - Ankle ligament damage confirmed

[Andouble]

Does anyone know what that means? 2-4 weeks as reports said yesterday, or more?

can't tell from that statement. Technically a sprained ankle is ligament damage. Some heal faster than others with ankle sprains, considering the challenge, we should consider ourselves lucky if that is all it is.

That sucks. I wish the guy a speedy recovery, ankle ligament damage is rough. :(

Joe Bennett has his eyes directly on Leroy's leg, knew exactly what he was doing - rumours that he's a rag as well.

6 weeks normally

Bit of a bold statement without knowing what level of damage he’s sustained. Could equally be 3 weeks or 3 months.

 

[Mr HJ]

6 weeks normally

usually 6-8 weeks for normal folks. Super athletes with access to high end treatments will probably mean he'll be back in 3-4 weeks. Can see him making the cup final. I'm still spewing at the tackle.

Riley’s in it up to his neck, believe me. He knows more than he lets on.

could be a week with ankle ligaments.

He'll be back soon. No break no muscle damage. Good news.

Rag or not he’s a dirty bastard for sure.

For tackles so blatantly aimed to hurt a 1 match ban isn’t enough when a young lad now has to miss up to 2 months of football. In fact, it wasn’t even that it was just a yellow!
