This happens all the time and why you often see people get little niggles when they come back from a bigger injury. I think this is most likely and hopefully it'll only be a couple of weeks out.If he's reopened the existing break then, as someone said above, that's more likely to be a freak accident, especially at that level I'd be amazed if there weren't x-rays/scans done throughout the injury to make sure it was recovering as expected and he'll only have been allowed back when it was looking good.Fair point. I suppose its best to wait for all the available details.Hopefully, its not too serious. With him missing, I think it has proven what a key element he is to our way of playing.Which means that I think we need to be looking at a solid, dependable & similar style footballer to be his backup when we next look at the transfer window. Same with Moreno.I think Zaniolo can fill a similar role.No chance, Ramsey is in a different league in terms of athleticism and presence. Also puts Emery under a bit of pressure to put McGinn back on the left side against better teams to give Digne more support. Didn't work against Liverpool, mind. We have no cover for McGinn or Ramsey in that box midfield setup. Both perform their roles perfectly. The difference Ramsey made when he came on v Brighton was ridiculous.

Oh for fucking bollocking sake. If that's another ten weeks, that's a third player who's going to miss a big chunk of the season, and I think Ramsey is almost as important to us in an attacking sense as Mings is defensively. I hope that Monchi is getting ready to go all guns blazing in the January transfer window because whining about January not being the best time isn't going to cut it any more.
That doesn't sound like a recurrance, as in another "break", but more he's aggravated it. I don't see how he would have stayed on to the end of the game against Bright if he's actually broken it again.

Although I do think what Emery said does make it sound like it might not be another break, just a problem with the area.

Always bemuses me when a broken metatarsal gets referred to as a broken foot.
It's not unusual with a broken foot, many people only realise how bad it is when they try to pivot on the foot and get a stab of pain.
But I couldn't tell you the names of most of the bones in my body...
