ACL?
I think that sounds likely from his own social media posts where he came across as knowing it's a serious one.Yet again we've had one of our players put out long term with a poor tackle but the ref hasn't given it as a foul, I'm getting sick of it, there was absolutely no way A-A could win legally win the ball from where he was so I can't understand how the ref and VAR both thought he'd done nothing wrong. This is why, for me, we need to be able to hear the conversation they have for things like this, once they know they have to justify the decision live they might start actually giving a shit how it looks when they play favourites.

Players that get tugged or fouled but try to get the shot away and stay up are more punished as those are rarely called for fouls.It was certainly more of a pen to me than the Kane one the other week but Kane knew exactly how to draw the ref's attention he got slight contact so I'm afraid in the modern game that's how you get penalties most of the time rather than trying to do the right thing.

So it’s very possible to walk afterwardsYep, it really depends on exactly what damage you've done. When I did my knee I tore my ACL, broke my tibia and fibula and badly damaged the meniscus but because I also dislocated the joint I had no idea how bad it was. The physio helped put the joint back in and I got changed and got home fine but with a ridiculous amount of swelling. My plan was to alternate heat and ice packs and then go to A&E the next day but as the swelling started to go down it got too painful and I had to go that evening. They ended up keeping me in for 2 days and then I had 3 ops in 6 months to get everything working properly.All too much info but whilst it hurt I did manage to walk around on that lot to get in and out of cars, etc.

Gutted, thought he was starting to look like the player we had earlier in the season. He’s a really likeable player too. Poor lad.
