Amadou Onana

[Concrete Tom]

He walked off the pitch, so fingers crossed he just twisted it? As others say though he is made of glass seemingly, so be out until next season now….

Kamara walked off the pitch...

[SamTheMouse]

Fucking hell. He makes Darren Anderton look like the Six Million Dollar Man.

Having watched it now, I reckon he's out until well into 2027, I know he walked off but it looked like an ACL tear to me and with the reaction since it's clearly not a minor one.

The way Lukaku put up the number 24 shirts when he scored tells us that it's a serious injury.

[letsshakehands]

Ornstein confirmed ACL. Bugger.

[Nev]

It's at least one of these for the last 3 seasons for us isn't it?

[Des Little]

Is it worth merging this thread with the Celebrity Fans one?  Poor bugger has watched more of our games than he's played in

Ornstein confirmed ACL. Bugger.

FFS

[Walmley_Villa]

Full rupture, 6-9 months

[Somniloquism]

And to think if they hadn't staged that last minute comeback against Senegal, he would have been home by now.

[TaxDodger]

Of course this has happened. Very minor positive but at least it’s happened in pre season so in theory we have plenty of time to come up with a contingency plan. If this hadn’t happened he’d presumably have just got injured in the third game of the season instead.

'Ctrl+C' 'Ctrl+V' Get well soon Amadou

[lovejoy]

If his wages are covered (as suggested above) a loan back up option would work.
When looking at players value I do think you need to factor in their injury record. He’s just not a reliable 30 matches a season guy.

[Beard82]

Thats a real bugger. 

[MalcolmP]

If this happened to a 'big six' team, no problem, they just go and buy a replacement. Situations like this is further proof of corruption. EPL, UEFA FIFA, Donald Trump, f*** the lot of them
