Pau Torres has suffered a broken metatarsal, ruling him out for around two months.

This was posted on the 3rd January, so probably a month before being considered fully fit.

I think we will be seeing him in training then but not back playing. Unless we are really desperate, I would state aim for the April matches.

Broken bones in the foot are not an easy fix - cf Ramsey.

If I remember rightly they rushed Saint Beckham back after seven weeks for the World Cup and he clearly wasn't anywhere near fit enough.  So I think you can add another four weeks from when it was done.

These are the kind of injuries we never seem to have much luck with.  I think being happy to see him back before the end of the season is probably a good starting point for expectations.

Ramsey was a very unusual case, 6 weeks to be back training is fairly normal so we'll probably see him on the training pictures fairly soon, unless there's problems.

Bowen seemed to have a good recovery time lets hope Pau is similar

Bowen had a fractured metatarsal, and was back playing about 5 weeks later.  It all depends on the nature of the injury.  A fracture is easier to recover from that a break.  They never revealed the full extent of the injury, beyond saying "two months", so I suspect his break is slightly worse than Bowen's fracture.
