Rodri Injury Updates | City say ligament injury (pg117)

Definitely that game and possibly New Year's Eve
A totally bizarre last minute where we broke away from a saved penalty and had a clear overlap until Puncheon took De Bruyne out
Yes, 2017! Thought it was more recent.
 
My guess is he turns Rico into prime Kante
We have several options for sure, but just not an obvious specialist solution. Zico's a star in the making, but I struggle to see him effectively filling in the huge Rodri sized hole, for a full gruelling season.

We all feared losing Rodders for an extended period, & wondered how we'd cope in the circumstances. I suppose we're now gonna find out soon enough.

No one can fill in for Rodri he is simply the best in the world at his position but surely his deputy for the Spanish team can do a job there?
 
Just seen a video of Rodri leaving a building in Barca? in a white hooded top walking apparently with very minor discomfort. Bluemoon physios - is this consistent with a torn ACL?

(It's on city xtra on twitter/X)
The issue with these injuries (of which I've had several) isn't really normal day to day walking, the problems arise as soon as you put load onto the knee, or try to twist it.

In my cases my knees could go from locking up, to giving way. I had to climb the stairs by using my good leg first, & dragging the other up. You learn to adapt & cope, but proper physical exertion is a no no.

Thinking of my recovery times, I doubt we'll see a fully recovered & crucially, match fit Rodri until March/April at the very earliest. The knee is a load bearing joint & it takes as long as it takes to be able to withstand the rigours of a sprint burst, twisting & a sudden stop.

His return won't be rushed because he could make the problem even worse if not fully recovered & match ready. I was treated by a Dr Hurst who also treated ManUre players, but tbh, my knees have never really been the same.

Having said that, I'm not a multi-million pound footballer receiving the very best care & attention there is.

Was definitely New Year's Eve. Went to Selhurst that day, out on the night then for some reason I'd committed to going to Cheltenham races on New Year's Day.

I was sick.
