2019/20 Andre Gomes

[GwladysBlue]

Excellent news. Get well soon, Andre!

 

[BirkenheadBlue]

Anyone have a guess how long he'll be out?

Anywhere between 6-12 months, depending on how much soft tissue damage.

 

[Maltese_Falcon]

Excellent news , Medicine and science have progressed so much in recent years , back then a person with such an injury would have been confined to crutches for the rest if his life .

 

[ToffeeTim]

Anyone have a guess how long he'll be out?

I have no idea. But I'd hazard a guess that preseason will be a good outcome given the circumstances.

 

[BlueShark]

Some good news at last.

Hoping the recovery is indeed a full one.

Great news, get him back in the squad for next week

Don't really buy into the sympathy for Son. If you lunge in from behind nowhere near getting the ball and indeed it's impossible to get the ball then he deserves everything he is feeling today as I bet it is 10x less than what Andre is feeling.

If Gomes had just gone down and wasn't injured fair enough, yellow card, but if a player is injured and this doesn't have to be severely like in this case, then why not a red for such a irresponsible and needless challenge?

Everyone might be a bit more responsible that way, you can still 'take one for the team' by holding or pulling back but the same applies, injure someone and you go off. Just less chance than with a wild lunge at speed.

I' m just sat with a physiotherapist now and he gave me a rather long winded explanation. But he believes by pre-season he will be back, maybe sooner.

 

[Papa Shango]

If all goes well and good could be back by pre season if his injury is like others who have had the same. 9 months

He will be the best player in the Championship.

Everyone makes mistakes, that's why pencils have erasers.

 

[John Barton]

Says op has gone well and expect him to make a full recovery

Finally a bit of good news after yesterday

They said the same about Bracewell, never the same player again

 

[John Barton]

They said the same about Bracewell, never the same player again

And he went to a world reknowned surgeon in America

What's wrong with a sending off and a 3 match ban? Not saying we all hunt Son down and twist his leg foot off in retribution. He made the lunge, whether he meant to seriously injur Gomes or not (which I have no doubt he didn't), end of the day, can't do the time, don't do the crime.

Physical recovery and mental recovery are not the same thing.
