    Perhaps it sensed my shame

    Debating? WTF. If anyone is stupid enough not to hold the same opinion as me then they aren't worth bothering with.

    Latest reports from France say Lille very likely to accepted our latest offer. Which is €25m incl bonuses.

    Translation: Lille should quickly accept the offer of 20 M € (excluding bonus) of Southampton for black. Southampton offers the Player 5 years! #RMCSPORT

    Hopefully it's meant to say Boufal, or we may have been duped. <laugh>

    I'd like to say I could contain my excitement, but I'd be an awful liar.

    After Eric Black joining earlier this summer, this is the second time I've got my hopes up.

    Never had these problems when I was Susan.

    I just carried out a scouting mission on a Lille forum. Using basic GCSE French and a lot of Google translate, I can see that they wish him well and are a bit upset to lose him.
    Though, they think for the money it's a good deal, as he may not be the same post-injury.

    I can also confirm that they are less deluded than Everton fans. #boufalwatch

    I worry a lot about the 'may not be the same post-injury' - I do hope the medical team are on point with it.

    Loving the 5 year suggestion- fits with our policy of selling our new players a year later, for shed loads.

    Very dodgy if true. I tore mine about 5/6 years ago and to this day it has never properly healed.

    The time he has been out suggests a surgical repair of the meniscus, which takes longer to heal but has the better long-term prognosis. If they have to remove the damaged part, they're likely to be back to fitness quicker, but the knee is far more likely to deteriorate down the road.

    Most patients do well after surgery. The prognosis for return to normal activity is good but depends upon the motivation of the patient to work hard with their physical therapist and to continue that work after formal therapy has been completed.

    Footballers probably get a higher standard of treatment, especially the follow up care. Treatment post-op is sadly where us lesser mortals are let down.
