    Hmm, I guess this is good news?
    Not sure I'd want his first game to be at Wolves to be honest, if he's going to get an injury anywhere it would be there or Stoke.

    Some people say return against Wolves and others say Blackburn. Good news anyway, I would have been twitching if was in the derby yesterday.

    I've literally forgot about him because it will be next season before we see the best from him, if we ever do.

  4. I hope we don't rush him back. I reckon he should get a few sub/impact appearances first, then start.

    he has been a victim of two wreckless tackles. Don't think he is injury prone but unlucky.

    Hopefully he'll miss the next derby! Wouldn't want him on the end of a Bardsley special leg mangler! I wouldn't one of our players losing Arfa leg (sorry i couldn't resist!)

    With the way players are in teams like Wolves and Stoke, I honestly would rest him against all the teams like that who have a "hardman" (thug) who will just spend the 90 minutes trying to injure him.

    True, however he may have physical weeknesses as a result of those two challenges.

    That's exactly why he is now injury prone though, not being funny but because he is fast and skillful the tackles will come flying in.

    I read somewhere that broken bones heal stronger, that's why why I think he may have a mental weakness playing against bardsley or a cattermole.

    Broken bones dont heal stronger. But a repaired cruciate ligament tends to be stronger than the original ligament, maybe you have mixed the two up
