Wouldn't be a regular at Liverpool, Madrid, Barcelona either. Good player yes but not world class in a million years. Ricardo is still up and coming in fairness but would he currently be a regular in those teams? He not even the regular choice for his national side. Kante does stand out though in fairness and could currently do a job anywhere imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicolo Barella Posted 4 May 2020 Share Posted 4 May 2020 To be honest, if Ricardo absolutely had to get injured, he certainly picked the right time. A lot of his recovery takes place over periods with no football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sampson Posted 16 May 2020 Share Posted 16 May 2020 Yeah if he's done his cruciate ligaments he's not going to be back for the remainder of this season. It will be October at the earliest, but Christmas is probably more realistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think it was a bad one - with a decent recovery he could be playing in October and if we qualify, a delayed restart of the CL could be a target for him !

Stadt Posted 16 May 2020 Share Posted 16 May 2020 Could be wrong but I thought at the time it was said that as far as ACL injuries go his was relatively moderate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spudulike Posted 16 May 2020 Share Posted 16 May 2020 To look on the brightside, injury free and in normal circumstances, its possible that we may have lost him in the summer for a big transfer. Justin looked promising when he was given a chance so he'll be keeping the position warm ready for Ricardo's return. Hopefully they'll be no need to rush him back (unlike Wilf).

dynamark Posted 14 June 2020 Share Posted 14 June 2020 I think I'm correct in that he didn't come off injured in the game he got his injury which is weird so surely couldn't have been a really serious damage .Still bad enough though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ACL tears can be complete or incomplete. Ruptures usually refer to a complete tear which is worse. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In which case probably the wrong phrase used by me. Remember reading it wasn't extremely severe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dynamark Posted 19 June 2020 Share Posted 19 June 2020 I always imagine these type of injury to be like taking the plastic ring off a pack of beer and stretching it doesn't break but it seperates horrible 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a similar injury (separated collar bone from shoulder blade) and it felt a lot like that! 5 complete ligaments tears at once isn’t a feeling I’d hope to endure again.

Whether this is true or not, any cruciate knee ligament injury is never predictable re recovery. Too much assumption on here that because Ricky is so athletic he would be back quickly ..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
