He must be personally gutted about the injury and acknowledges people's support without taking away from the bigger tragedy here. Hope to see him back ASAP. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveherbe Posted 29 October 2018 Share Posted 29 October 2018 (edited) Do we know what the actual injury is? I saw a report saying he'd be out for 6 to 8 weeks, which suggests to me it was a dislocation rather than a hortible break. Anyone able to update, as I dont know what to write on the get well card Edited 29 October 2018 by steveherbe I cant spell! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously bad news for us but let him take all the time he needs and come back stronger than ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StriderHiryu Posted 30 October 2018 Author Share Posted 30 October 2018 https://www.ghanaweb.com/GhanaHomePage/NewsArchive/Daniel-Amartey-undergoes-ankle-surgery-696307 He was taken off a stretcher by the medical team and slated for an examination after the match. His manager, Yusif Alhassan Chibsah, told Kumasi-based Fox FM that the player had gone under the knife and could return to action in about two months. The player himself put out a tweet to confirm the surgery and also pay his respects to the late owner of the club, Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha, who died with four other people in a helicopter crash on Saturday after the match. After the match on Saturday, Leicester City manager Claude Puel expressed his worry at the incident and hoped the injury was not as severe as feared. “My first thought is for my player at the end, Amartey. I hope it is not serious, he played well and gave everything. It’s difficult to see this at the end. ‘My thoughts are more about his injury than about the game. He needs to have it examined and then we will see after. I hope it is not serious.” The match was Amartey’s 9th of the season for the Foxes but the injury means he will not add to that number for some time. Maybe the injury is not a season ender after all? Would be a shame if he missed out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to see he won't be out for the whole season. We might well see Darnell or possibly even the return of Danny Simpson! He'll be chomping at the bit to play after what happened this week. Or we may just stay play a 3-4-3 / 3-5-2 as we did in the openig 30 against Arsenal and play Maguire, Evans and Soyuncu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An proper unit and very comfortable on the ball - he passes my own personal litmus test of a player....is he prepared to accept the ball under pressure? He don't take the easy option either. That said, if I was him, I'd be keen for a move away to a half decent European club. He's got the profile and CV to get himself a decent move. Pop him in the Bundesliga or serie A club and he'd rip it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pop him in the Bundesliga or serie A club and he'd rip it up. Nice to hear someone say that. If he's good on the ball then expect to see him compete for places in the squad. There's no way Rodgers gives that up easily. It seems that everyone expects this season to go without a problem. Like we can pencil in the first 11 for every game right now. No injuries? No fatigue? That's the beauty of a squad that fans don't appreciate. All of these players will compete for all eleven places every match. If any of them drop in quality for games or practice they won't play. Rodgers doesn't give free passes. If Amartey is as you say he is then he'll play plenty this year. And then there's Champions league next year. He's not going anywhere. Time to build and strengthen the squad for the future now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will have to seriously impress, given he has 2 right backs now in his way, 5 centre halves (not to mention Pascanu, Knight, Johnson and Hughes) and then 4-5 central midfielders as well. It's a big ask but he is a steady and reliable player and hope his career doesn't stall, he was finally making an impact with us last season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesta2014 Posted 30 June 2019 Share Posted 30 June 2019 Don’t forget he’s signed a new contract I believe too? Won’t be easiest player to get rid of if we want to with 3/4 years stil remaining? Personally hope hes overcome his injury and is a bench regular as like others have said he can play 3 different positions. Would still like him to have a go at centre half as I think he could be good there. Not that I’d know who to put him infront of! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
