Rodri Injury Updates | City say ligament injury (pg117)

[Rammy Blue]

You will know. Its what did for Colin Bell, Paul Lake, and Erling's dad when Roy Keane did him. And in a big ball of karma Keane did his too. Shearer did his. Gascoine in that FA cup final. Loads of players but these days it is recoverable with top surgery and careful rehab. It did used to be pretty much the end but it can be overcome now and has been with success among lots of players. Its tough rehab. Basically that ligament is small but tough and is the main short piece that runs right through the middle of the knee, about an inch or so long only it cant be fixed once gone. They generally twine hamstring and thread it through the gap and attach it to the start of the calf as a replacement. And all that needs to settle and then strengthen to be one workable strong and flexible piece.

They drill a hole through both bones and then thread the hamstring through it and screw into position in both bones. That’s why it’s a 9 month rehab whilst it naturally attaches into place.

I’m having mine done next week so I’ll report back!

never thought I'd ever say this but I'd rather Liverpool or rags win the league than Arsenal after seeing how they intentionally injured Rodri - utter scum cunts

Haha no chance in hell. Dippers and rags are the worst. Have people forgotten how the Dippers attacked our team bus for no reason? Fuck those cunts.

Same, but the hope is fading. Ornstein did say that the time out is yet to be determined, but we seem to know enough that it will be lengthy.

He's clearly got a significant injury but fingers crossed for the best case scenario

I know people have said you can walk after doing your ACL but you'd really expect if he'd properly ruptured it he wouldn't be walking unaided with a bit of a limp 24 hours later

I was thinking last night if we dont hope red scousers win it! Felt weird but surprised I’m not alone in this thinking.

I wondered what they did for athletes. My husband used a hamstring for one of his full tears and then a donor ACL when he did the other one. I know they can also use patellar tendons.

Had mine repaired in 1997 with my patellar tendon but I think that’s old school.

His girlfriend rather

Most probably, or has Rodri himself, quite funnily for a Spaniard calls her, “The Missis”:)

Macca..
Its the hope that kills you.
Definite season ender mate

Yeah I think deep down I know it's the ACL but that little bit in you thinks it might be less serious.

 

[Scaring Europe to Death]

There aren't many games where I've ever really excelled, but one exception is SPOT THE **** and today's been like a Kruger Safari

One of the world's greatest players potentially out for the season and all I'm seeing and hearing is Arsenal fans (and celebrities) whining about Doku not getting a yellow card.

Oliver might have struggled in a really explosive encounter, but I can recall 4-5 situations (for both teams) where another referee might have done the complete opposite

Fuck their myopic twisted paranoia

Hamstring is the usual now, there’s a part of it that’s lower just at back of knee that’s particularly fibrous so they take it from there.

I don’t consume any unnatural sugars or alcohol and certainly don’t do my grocery shopping at Aldi. What an utterly bizarre reply.

You made an idiotic remark that Rodri could ‘easily’ be replaced by Kovacic which is just complete and utter tripe. You were called out on this tripe and now are replying with nonsense. If you genuinely believe Rodri is easily replaceable you either have a very low IQ or are a rag we might need to look at banning.

You come across as a cider drinking turnip to be honest. You do realize people are allowed different opinions than yourself. But yeah let's accuse anyone who doesn't agree with you a rag.....again not tripe an opinion...called out, no you just made an aggressive and confrontational response, feel free to try and press gang me into being banned. Unlike you my happiness isn't dictated by a footballing forum....have a nice evening.....turnip.
