Marko Pjaca (4 Viewers)

[Osman]

Del Piero, Baggio and Owen all lost a step due to the tear and became less dynamic attackers due to it. First two technical and creative geniuses to adapt while last one became a simple poacher compared to game changing speedy penetration striker. All 3 were more dangerous with the extra step in their Arsenal.


Mentally they bounced back alright (tho Owen nonstop injuries poor guy) but can't have back that dynamic element. It makes, sense likes of Ruud and Shearer were fairly uneffected tho, never relied on speed as box strikers.



Hopefully not only operation but training better now, and being 21 means quicker recovery, but Pjaca type to rely heavily on physique so not too optimistic.

Plus Pjaca was always a much smaller talent than those guys, had him at 50/50 to really succeed before the injury even

 

[Paid-off-Ref]

Promising sparks were rare before this injury. Not that big of a deal for us, but an awful experience for him.

 

[JuveJay]

This guy needs to hope that we retain the 4-2-3-1 for next season, because if we sign a high quality wide forward player he's going to have a tough job trying to break into the team off the back of an injury like this.

 

[Juliano13]

Didn't Del Piero have a broken leg, not torn ACL?

 

[JuveJay]

No it was a very famous knee injury. Maybe not famous enough

 

[Ocelot]

Not sure about ACL, but it was his knee for sure

 

[JuveJay]

Twist and turns with footballers almost always tend to be ACL (anterior cruciate) injuries, the motion dictates that because it's the front of the knee and IIRC it doesn't stretch as well as other ligaments. I can't think of a footballer who had a serious knee injury which wasn't that ligament. Must be some.

Impact injuries forcing the front of the knee backwards can happen and they largely affect the PCL (posterior cruciate). Pretty rare in footballers, would require a high challenge with the foot planted. More likely to happen in a car crash or higher impact sports like American football.

MCL (medial collateral) and LCL (lateral collateral) tend to be caused by blows to either side of the knee. Could happen but far less likely.

I think with high impact injuries you're likely to damage more than one ligament at a time.

Yeah that's the important part, doubt he would be much of anything healthy anyways. I worried for him on the account we would sign wingers next season, better then him for sure.

huh? based on what?

Getting used to tactics in Italy, the workload physically is harder and you could see him getting frustrated with himself at times. Still a kid and learning. Remember even Nedved said himself when he came to Lazio it took him time to adjust

Yea we all know italy can be difficult to integrate into...how does that show pjaca as mentally weak?

so knowledgeable
so smart
so handsome

wow

I guess it's a psychological thing. It's not like ACL will take away your speed and skills but the pain suffered will be in your head everytime you try to reach a ball or make a turn. It needs 6 months physically, but much more time mentally.

He will be fine, this isnt 1980 anymore. It will take time but he will be fine.

I think this as well. We'll now sign an extra player who will likely be more ready (and better) and I think Pjaca will get buried in the bench (unless we get hit by other major injuries again).

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

Signing more wingers could be good for him in that he can take his time with his return and regain match sharpness more gradually because the team isn't waiting on him

 

[Carlos Primera]

When has any player ever come back stronger than before after an ACL tear? Especially one that relies on pace and agility?

The SBA Adrian Petersen.

Its a necessity if we want to continue with wing based formation
