.... based on the national teams tweet: 'Manuel Lanzini suffered, in today's morning training, the rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament of his right knee.'
Poor lad. Fingers crossed he doesn't need surgery, if not he could be fit by the start of the season, if its really, really bad, Alan Devonshire bad, he could miss a whole season
I'm still clutching at the straws of hope that accurate diagnosis isn't usually possible until a few days after the injury has occurred and the swelling/bleeding has stopped.
So it may not be as bad as all that ;pray
And if it is, let's hope he's a quick healer ;puzzled
From physioroom: ACL reconstruction knee surgery has evolved beyond recognition since the first ACL repair in 1963. Development has continued since then and the latest surgical technique uses a strip of the patella tendon from the patient's knee as a graft to replace the ACL. In addition to advances in the surgical procedure, there have been advances in post-operative rehabilitation that have seen a return to sports activity, in most cases, in less than six months.
Aslef, I think (from what I've read about the injury) professional athletes nearly always need surgery on torn ligaments because the level of stability achieved by non-surgical rehab isn't good enough for playing sport at a high level.
On the up-side, as per that earlier quote, repair and rehab methods are so much better now.
At least 2 months of the time he is out is in the off season, as opposed to if he had got the injury in September where he could have missed practically the whole season
sweepy, I was just going off this : 'Manuel Lanzini suffered, in today's [June 8] morning training, the rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament of his right knee.'
As a club we are so so unlucky - once again we will start a season without a full quota of players to pick from. I'm gutted that it's one of our best players even more so. I was equally looking forward to seeing him in action in the WC. A real shame for the lad.
Definitely a shame. But I have felt we need another Lanzini type player anyway in the summer. Hopefully we buy someone as good, then when Lanzini is back, we’ll have both of them firing!
That is actually upsetting, not just because we lose such a quality player for such a long time.....but its heartbreaking for Manu, sounds like this could derail his career

But seriously. What a disaster. Was looking forward to seeing him link up with Messi.
If it’s this bad he may never play again. Jeez
