Based on reports, Christopher Nkunku has undergone meniscus surgery and is expected to be out for ~4 months. Sounds like a meniscus repair surgery instead of trimming it, which is always preferable. I mentioned the possibility of lateral meniscus in my analysis👇👇#CFC#FPL#EPL
Christopher Nkunku injury:
Not the best angle but seemed like a bit of varus stress
One of the concerns is an LCL injury
Nkunku injured his left LCL last season & missed ~3mths
Other concerns- Lat. meniscus/Bone bruise

@NewtronGooner@Sehajpal2343@TMftbl I saw the knee support and went “Nah, Im not falling for that one”. It’s easy to say it could’ve been an MCL or something but I was not convinced it was something that needed reporting.
@NewtronGooner@SamJDean Hi, I have read Arteta’s quote and although a fracture has been mentioned I don’t know which bone it is or if there are any associated injuries, so I have no information on the timeline as of now. Will have a better understanding when there’s some specifics.
Ryan Gravenberch injury:
Left ankle forced into inversion which could result in a likely lateral ankle sprain.
X-rays to rule out fracture. #LFC#CarabaoCup
@LuSchmoo@FabrizioRomano@gastonedul Yes, saw it yesterday. They are probably referring to the MCL which makes sense but there could be associated meniscus injury as well.
Apologies that I don’t post nowadays, just engaged with my studies and tired of people copying the information without giving credit.
@3cbPerformance Makes sense, but the other day you said Reece James hamstring is a Grade 4 now you’re saying “out of 3” assuming Grade 3 is the highest. So which is it?
@RooshanRazzaq@CFCDaily I can’t answer that without knowing the specifics of James’ injury but I am curious too on why he is reluctant because the return timeline for conservative vs surgical intervention is not that big of a difference.
Hardik #Pandya injury vs Bangladesh
Left ankle
Mechanism -> External rotation of ankle
Concerning for High ankle sprain.
Need to rule out - Fracture
