    Won't reclaim his spot from Casado for a good while, but happy to have another somewhat healthy midfielder in the squad

    Tendinopathies are pretty unpredictable and can cause trouble for a long time. It’s chronic in the sense that by now the tissue in his tendon will have changed, and will never be the same as before. My guess is they decided to take some months of so they could try and build new capacity in the...

    Yeah tape is a good shout but shouldn’t add much thickness. Probably just a combination of angle and a bit of tape

    21 - Frenkie de Jong

    Most likely is the angle and confirmation bias, but the right ankle looks slightly swollen compared to the left

    What is his normal form in Europe? Has been letting us down in important games in CL since 2015

    Look, not trying to pretend I'm a doctor or whatever. I'm just a 5th semester PT student who've interned at the orthopaedic department of a Hospital in Copenhagen where I got to see Achilles and ACL surgeries and rehab the patients afterwards. So not a webmd nor a real one, just a student who's...

    Yes true both ligaments and tendons are made up of connective tissue and thats about all you’ve said so far that’s true and only thing they have in common. If this is your only response to the simple differences I’ve pointed out about tendon and ligament injuries, there is no reason to go...

    What does the incidence of an injury matter? Just because its more rare, doesnt mean its less severe. The ACL is a ligament. After a surgery, your muscles have the same prerequisites to reach the same level as before the injury. If you tear your Achilles, the tendon will change permanently. It...

    All ACL surgeries on athletes use either an allo(donor)- or autograft. Alternative is a conservative repair, which there is growing evidence for, with many cases of the ACL healing with a crossbrace protocol or attaching to the PCL which can also give some stability. Not sure what your reffering...

    said I’d rather tear both ACLs than one Achilles. Tear, not permanently lose it.

    Reason some hoopers have succesfully returned from an Achilles to their previous level is in many cases because they simple use the other leg for jumping anyyway. Having seen both Achilles operations and ACL Operations aswell as patients as a physio student, I'd rather tear both my ACLs than...

    Achilles injuries are much more serious than ACL. The tendon will never regain the same structure and properties, and always elongates to some degree which the calf muscles then adapts to (they get shorter and thinner). No amount of training and rehab can change this. It also takes much longer...

    Vinícius Júnior

    Not so sure, his progress has been quite slow. It’s been a year, but he looks so far from ready and he’s got no trust in his knee. He is not on the right path atm unfortunately. His Physios seem like complete dorks, I could do a better job, and I’m just a student with very little ACL rehab...
