Phil Foden - 2017/18 performances

[St.Pauli support]

How long till foden's back??? Seems to be dragging on a bit.

I guess you have to be very very patient.
The lad is 17.
Pep certainly doesn't want to ruin his hopefully great career by rushing him in.
I hope he gets some more minutes till season end, that's all to expect. IMO.

Ligament damage 5 or 6 weeks back,what exactly is dragging on?

I seem to remember it being quoted as 5-6 weeks out, 5-6 weeks ago. Perhaps I'm wrong. Does that answer your question?

So nothing is dragging on,and as you have even answered yourself......you're comment was a little bit silly,wasnt it?

If it's been 5-6 weeks then he should be ready to play now shouldn't he? What with the prognosis being 5-6 weeks out... Last I saw of him he was still wearing his air boot. You really love to be difficult don't you. I find it rather sad.

Where is this 'out for the season' thingy come from? Lots of random twitter posts suggesting it, but surely bullshit?

Pep mentioned him being out for 'two months' in his press conference. Maybe they are taking that as meaning two months from now, rather than since the injury.

will he be back in the next few weeks ?. i think we need him to be on the bench/ in with a shot of the first team. hes too talented to ignore imo

 

[Cobwebcat]

A month ago he was out for a month so.....

Has felt like a long time but purely because we have played so many times since his injury and we all want to see him in the team.

As a 17 year old lad the last thing to do is rush him back and threaten more serious injury. His body is still growing and developing so he will be given time to heal and strengthen before he comes back into the side. Perhaps FA Cup next round could be a target but they might even see that as too soon.
