Taken from the Newsnow site:http://www.newsnow.co.uk/A/526732920?-276 You have to feel for the bloke, what a nightmare!
I have a knee growth problem called Osgood Schlatters Disease. Danny Welbeck had it before as well. It was because i played too much football.
My son had that as well as Sever's Disease - similar problem, only in the feet - although it wasn't from playing football, it was simply the cards he was dealt. Stopped him from playing when he was about 9 - now at 18, he's over it, but never went back to football.
Shame he is just a fly by night in the scheme of things But he does offer something our own lads are short of!
