And that is exactly the mistake most teams make; rush players back. 9 months is the standard, not the other way around.

Not exactly. He'll need game time, like everybody does, to be 100% and he should be given that without rushing anything.

Guess he's not almost dead like some make it sound.

The hamstrings actually deny the frontal movement of the tibia like the ACL does too. It's a huge factor in ACL injuries but Chiesa's injury came from a valgus movement in the knee. So I wouldn't immediately point at the hammies but the link is there.

A normal slowly integrating schedule is 9 months. 7 can easily/certainly be done but it's simply better not to...

The safe route would hand him his first minutes around the end of september-october. But in football they more than often get rushed back ofc.

9 months is the best and safest time frame. Anything under is a rush. You can speed up the muscle recovery but not the tendon-to-ligament transformation. Returning before the 9 months makes the chance of damaging or rerupturing much much higher. BUT football clubs (and therefor their doctors)...

He's been training for weeks now. Stop the blame game. It's just bad luck.

Fucking Smalling, fucking Olimpico.

The ninetees are over.

The damage was done one way or the other.

Sounds logic when he asked for a sub.

He was gassed but probably still should've stayed on instead of Berna ofc.

One of the best performers all season. I didn't want him but I'm turning into a fan. If only he could improve his shooting ability.

Decisive. He's in great form right now.

This guy is so fucking frustrating. He runs and runs and runs and... runs. But that's all he really does.

Right back is not the same as right flank, smarty. And that says it all, for people who open their eyes that is. 1606979174 He is. No one on the team can do what he does. If he gets injured we're fucked. Same goes for the criticised Alex Sandro and we've already seen it.

Kiev; Morata has the assist ;). Funny you, not even using Cuadrado's stats, which are very similar. He had 3 denied assists against Barca alone. Instead of Chiesa's list of minnows (for now). And I like what Chiesa has been doing btw. But Cuads is one of our most important players and Chiesa...

I know and I was laughing at the deal we made...
