And its not that I don't think he is any good, he would be useful...
...but has there EVER been a top player suffer not one but TWO major knee injuries and every come back to any kind of usefulness? Brazilian Ronaldo but he was NEVER the same. Not even close.

What I think is happening here is Beppe is trying to unsettle a Roma player or club enough to rehijack the Schick deal back in our favor.
Without reading any news my brother (Romanista) told me a couple of hours ago: I think he'll end up in Juve. A couple of hours later this news pops up.
we surely have a thing for midfielders with serious injury issues, Pepe and Assamoah were here a long while after they were broken, then we signed Khedira, then Marchisio broke, now we're after this guy... it's like we have to fill a quota for JMedical

And nearly 2800 minutes in Serie A alone. That is the type of injury that can happen to anyone though. So, I'm not too worried about it. If his injuries were skeletal, or muscle and hamstring issues, then I would take a step back and look at it.
You STILL did not answer my question though. Considering who you are talking to right now, I am beyond stunned that you don't know the answer to your own question

Yep. They said he lost 20 pounds of muscle as well.
His first major knee injury was when he was just 18. 2 days before he was to complete his transfer to Fiorentina. The club still decided to go through with the transfer and paid for the operation, even though he wasn't officially presented yet. That is why he was so loyal to them.
