6 knee surgeries are a lot. :down:
From what I know the left knee, the one who got broken last year before the WC do not boder Roby too mutch (he opereted it "just" 2 times) while is the right one (4 surgeries are all 4 it) who really never recovered from the first time he injured it when 17 cause that time he broke all the ligaments (both lateral and cruciate) + the meniscus and the "capsula" togeder, so it has to be rebuilted from 0.
It looks like he already has a lot of problems, like 4 example when he stays a lot with the leg folded like 4 example in the car than it's very difficolt and painful to put it straight again.
On his book (and it was written 2 surgeries ago) he said that he already know that he will have some problems in the future and that the pain will never leave him even when he will leave sport but that he has been told that if he will go on doing all the specific exercises and the phisioteraphy he is doing now he will be able to walk and to do everything normaly. If he stop that, yes maybe he will have problems to walk when he will be older, but he is very aware of it so I guess he will not stop.

Roby is in his mountains house, near Vicenza, where he holds his convalescence. On Monday he will go to Bologna where the points will be taken away from the knee and he will start the rehabilitation. In these days he has followed the events of Brescia with big passion, calling often on the phone the managers, De Biasi and the teammates.
