Have we changed our medical team?One of you reported the boly injury before the press got hold of it, prior to the europa league game. I believe this poster. Factor in our medical team don't seem as good as before then 2 + 2 = 4.
Treadmill is pretty high impact on knees and shins to be fairHe wasn't due back until October anyway, hard to see how he may have done something else/worse when all he's doing when it comes to his legs is pool and treadmill work.
Think so, remember October being suggested.Didn't Bruno give an update as recently as Friday saying 1 to 2 months away?
Define ‘top’ club.I do wonder if he would have been sold to some top club this summer but for the injury? Out of darkness cometh light - perhaps now we will keep him for the season. Possibly similar situation with Jimenez? City don't look all that great up top now Aguerro has gone. A pre-injury Jimenez would have been fantastic for City - their loss our gain.
Didn’t he break his knee cap?WTF is this injury that's keeping him out for so long and requiring a surgery? Does anyone know?
Patella tendonDidn’t he break his knee cap?
There are rumours swirling, l saw some on here yesterday, I really ****ing hope not....Heard he has had a massive setback with the injury and will potentially miss the whole season now.
Christ...Heard he has had a massive setback with the injury and will potentially miss the whole season now.
Sorry, where has this been mentioned before? Checked the injury thread and didn't see anything.
Nothing definitive as far as l am aware and could just be the same rumour being echoed. It's just that too many previous such rumours turned out to be accurate.Does anyone actually know or is it just, I have heard/hearsay stuff as it could just be BS or even just a little setback etc
Did you hear the rumour from this forum, or separately? As far as I can see, one person made the comment on the realistic transfer thread yesterday, and when asked, failed to provide any backup other than “wait and see”. Fair enough if you’ve heard this independently but if not, it may just be a case of people echoing the same poster.Heard he has had a massive setback with the injury and will potentially miss the whole season now.

****, that is exactly what we hoped that you wouldn't say. Nowt personal mate, l'm not shooting the messenger...Independently, didn't know it was mentioned on here previously until a few mentioned it in this thread
Awful , awful news IF true…. On a par with losing Jimenez last season.Here's hoping this is just a rumor. If it's not, there's some questions that need to be asked about our medical team and how injuries are being handled. Boly, Podence, Jonny and Marcal all came back quickly only to either re-aggravate their existing injury or sustain a new similar injury shortly after returning. If Neto is included in this, it would be devastating. Again here's hoping just a rumor...
How can Fosun spend within the rules? ……and with money we don’t have in abundance?Awful , awful news IF true…. On a par with losing Jimenez last season.
The one ( very small) positive would be that if it is for a season , we know now , rather than after the transfer window has finished.
Fosun would have to spend on proven quality now surely.
This is 100 percent me clutching at straws, but is your source a reliable one who has connections with the club, or is it perhaps someone who may have assimilated the first rumour of his being injured and is passing that on? (Not in a malevolent manner, just in a 'this is what I've heard' manner)Heard he has had a massive setback with the injury and will potentially miss the whole season now.
