Thibaut Courtois

[El Gato]

Internal stitches on a meniscus tear I would assume. You either patch it up or remove the damaged bit

Fairly sure him getting hurt in Mourinho's 2nd season combined with fat Hazard was why Chelsea ended up so low that year.
They lost 6 of 11 that autumn with Courtois sidelined and 2 for rest of the year

Bad luck, can understand his tears. So he's pretty much out this season?
He's a match winner but Lunin's been pretty solid and with a good overall defence they can still win CL.

Ok, I didn’t know those could be permanent. Thought internal stitches were supposed to dissolve over time as otherwise body would reject them.

yeah, read he is out for 2 months

Stitches from 2015? That a thing?

No they would have dissolved by now

Clearly not if they're ruptured
That or the report is inaccurate and it's just that he has re-torn the stitched bit
Not that important really, bottom line is he has hurt the knee he's had work done on already

He's out for season by sounds of it - they're taking out the damaged part of the meniscus. Not sure if Fati or Kaka had the same done but he's not that pace reliant so might not be affected

Back as if he was never injuried for most of the season, top game.

Injured and out until 2nd half of October. Atletico fans have the last laugh.

I don't know what's dumber here

The fact he actually said this shit

Or the fact he didn't put Pele in this supposed GOAT comparison

Probably the fact he puts Ronaldo on Maradona and Messi's level, AND as you said, excludes Pele lol.
