said I’d rather tear both ACLs than one Achilles. Tear, not permanently lose it.

Reason some hoopers have succesfully returned from an Achilles to their previous level is in many cases because they simple use the other leg for jumping anyyway. Having seen both Achilles operations and ACL Operations aswell as patients as a physio student, I'd rather tear both my ACLs than...

Achilles injuries are much more serious than ACL. The tendon will never regain the same structure and properties, and always elongates to some degree which the calf muscles then adapts to (they get shorter and thinner). No amount of training and rehab can change this. It also takes much longer...

Not so sure, his progress has been quite slow. It’s been a year, but he looks so far from ready and he’s got no trust in his knee. He is not on the right path atm unfortunately. His Physios seem like complete dorks, I could do a better job, and I’m just a student with very little ACL rehab...

Toni been quite confident in his actions in general, what a strike

Feck wanted both him and Pedri subbed for fermin and casado. Both looked tired and vulnerable

Class act

Officially left and has been replaced by Arnau Blanco, whoever that is

It’s a grade 2 sprain on the lateral colateral ligament. Rather simple injury that should heal within the 8 weeks and is easy to rehab. It’s a contact injury that almost only happens due to a bad tackle. It truly sucks that he will miss preseason, but this injury shouldn’t be tricky to bounce...

Crazy that Kroos didn’t get a yellow for that. Absolutely gutted for Pedri, looked quite unfortunate

Who do you think RDP is?

I have seen this repeated a few times, but why do we think Christensens injury struggles will last forever. I haven't heard anything except that it involves his Achilles tendon. And from how his load/playing time has been managed this last few months, my guess is he has some stage of Achilles...

Unai and Dani surprised me and were quite lively and fun to Watch. Only tuned in for the second half, but we looked like the better team from what I saw.

Wasn’t Sevilla interested in a loan? That could be an interesting option. Like others have said, he needs to play full games regularly and regain confidence, fitness. Sub appearances won’t cut it anymore, and he’s not replacing Raphinha or Yamal.

Has Achilles tendinopathy it seems

Much more so than Raphinha at least, who some people keep suggesting should play as 10/AM or whatever. Just because he struggles when pushed wide to the sidelines, doesn't mean he's got the skills to be an attacking focal point centrally.

Do not miss this guy. Yamal might not be as fast, but his decision making alone and ability to complete simple passes without giving the ball away makes up for it easily

Hopefully no serious injuries next season. Got what it takes to ball at the top level when in form.

I don't think Raphinha has good enough decision making, weight of pass or dribbling skills to be a 10/ AM or whatever. It's true that he has football IQ in the sense that he often makes good runs, gets into good scoring positions and therefore contributes really well with G/A. But I cannot...
