Emi Buendia

I dunno, you can definitely see the difference in his legs on some of those pics. Plus, he still has the elastoplast!

I wouldn't think they'd risk him in an actual match at this point of the season, but then again another couple of knocks and we might have to wheel him and Mings out for the Palace game.

Are he/Mings even in our European/PL submitted squads this season?

Seen him training with the squad.....he couldnt could he?

I said a while back it wouldn't surprise me if he's aprt of the matchday squad at some point soon. The KT tape will be his crutch for a while, you see loads of players using it long after any injury has cleared up.

Bailey is currently using it now isn't he?

Sort of, Bailey's strapping has been a bit morethan just KT tape though, I think he's been using a kneecap support as well.

I know it's hard to tell in pictures, but from the ones of the session the other day, his left leg still has significantly less muscle than his right. So I'm expecting he's still a while off being ready to play.

Also, we don't know what he's doing in training. Yes, he's with the group and with a ball, but he may only be doing certain drills and part sessions to ease him in. I'm guessing he won't be doing much where there will be contact yet.

Could it be magic?

Oooh oooh oooh, it's Magic!

How well do players come back after ACL injuries? Does it affect pace or flexibility?

[Dante Lavelli]

Not worth the risk this season.  Slow and steady until the end of the season and hope that he hits preseason at full speed.
