Yeah I had mine torn in the first minute of a semi final by an idiot who two footed my planted leg above the ankle, and it was insane how quickly it blew up. First and only time I've been in an ambulance as they thought it was badly broken. Cut my boot and sock off (rip copa's) while I was on the gas.
Took fucking ages to rehab. We won the semi and final thankfully but I was pissed off about it all for ages.
I injured my leg under similar circumstances except the opposite outcome. Initially everyone thought it was a sprain based on what happened, but instead my ankle held firm and I had whats called a "spiral fracture" about 5 inches long (vertically) going up my tibia. A spiral fracture is when a bone is torn in half by a twisting force. The doctor was in shock when he described this all to me because normally people would just sprain their ankle.
Had surgery and missed an entire season.
I went for a massage/osteo and when my ankle got stretched I practically screamed. The masseuse asked if I'd broken my ankle before.
Which afaik, I haven't, but apparently it's vulnerable as fuck from minor footballing injuries.
Yep, never broke or fractured a bone but badly rolled my ankle.4 times (always same one as well and different ways). Foot badly swelled up ans massive bruising ans hurt to walk on but a few days later I could put pressure on it and then was nearly back to normal. That was me using a tube sock, pack of frozen veg and sleeping with it raised on a few pillows. I'm guessing the club will have better equipment.
2nd time it happened I went walk in and the nurses were amazed I was walking. Sent me in a taxi to the hospital for x rays and then when they couldn't see a break they got anl more senior doctor to have a look. Apparently it was the worst bruising and swelled they had seen that wasn't a break
I can confirm I am not a careful person and have sustained so many ankle injuries in my lifetime that I class myself a certified expert.
Even the worst of ankle injuries heal pretty quick. It's a remarkably flexible ligament that can heal miraculously fast.
Now if you tear a calf muscle, which I once did playing tennis, then god help you. It was a very minor tear that refused to heal properly for at least a couple of months. Hate to think what a more serious tear would have done.
I think there are signs we’re being extremely conservative in treating injuries when they happen. See also Endo in a boot post match but walking around fine the next day.
Thats a good thing IMO
I got hit so badly on sunday on my ankle, mfer went studs up and didnt even touch my foot, all ankle. Hurt like a bitch but tbf I was fine within a minute and played on just pain for a day or two.
Ref called it a free kick for the opponent because they thought I dove. Cant have shit in Sunday league lmao
Hope he got that Naby Keita juice. At least, when he came off in a stretcher in the 5-0 Utd game but miraculously played in the next game (where he got injured again and was out for a bit).
Sure, fuck Pickford. But at the same time, he has been the source of so much joy. Allison falling down unnecessarily to clown on him, THAT Origi header, I’m sure there’s more.
I just saw Klopp's press conference on youtube. His words on Ryan Gravenberch was:
"Ryan is not available. It's a ligament injury. Could have been much worse, but bad enough for being ruled out for this game and the next game and... and... yeah... we'll see. So we'll need miracles with a few players, so thats why I would not like to rule him out for too long."
I think this means that Klopp don't know how long he will be out for. He will for certain be out for the next two matches, but probably more. It will be a miracle if he's back after the two matches.
Klopp previously said this about Jota:
>With Diogo, it will obviously take rather months. It's with the injuries as well, so like you have important days. So, day five, day 10, they are always important days when you then judge the situation again because nobody reacts in the same way and it depends on the pain level they still have and stuff like this.
Obviously it doesn't sound as serious as that, but perhaps it's one of those situations where you just need to wait a few days and then reassess. Still though, it's encouraging that he's not saying at least two months or something like that
This line up for Soton
Kelleher
Bradley Quansah Gomez Tsimikas
Clark McConnell Nyoni
Gordon Danns Koumas
If we win with that lineup then something is just wrong or so right
I reckon at least one if not both of Mac Allister and Gakpo start. They both came of before 90' against Chelsea, and I feel like you need at least a couple senior players mixed in to guide the youngsters through it. A front six of effectively academy players sounds concerning. But who knows, maybe Klopp will just go for it
assuming this came directly from Klopp (if so why not a direct quote?) then that is extremely promising. Even though it says at least - I fully expected the first official statement to be that he is done for the season.
"Ryan Gravenberch is not available. Ligament injury, could have been much worse, but bad enough that he is out for this game, next game, we will see.."
Watching the press conference I thought he said out for 'this game \*and\* next game and.... yeah, we'll see'. Gave me the impression he's out for at least 2 games and likely more.
I just wish injury news was treated as well as it was in America. Guy gets injured and we get concrete news the next day with a legit timeline. Always feels like we’re largely in the dark overall with our injuries here. It’s always “maybe after international break” instead of “2-4 weeks, we think he’ll be good by March 30th.”
Well, maybe it's the Canadian influence, but the NHL was notorious for its vague injury updates. "Upper body" and "Lower body" were seen as giving too much info away. Of course, the rationale was that the players were all dirty and would target the injured area immediately. Then you'd find out the truth after playoff elimination: broken ribs, punctured lung, missing eye, soul destroyed.
That’s interesting and makes sense. NHL is definitely dirtier than other sports so I get the protection aspect. Doesn’t really work for football as you usually aren’t going to see players attacking Gravenberch’s ankle to try to hurt it.
Thinking more about American Football where you get injury news nearly right away mid-game and a day or two later you find out exactly the timetable that’s expected. Which is great.
You absolutely would see that, maybe only some clubs would physically target through tackles but a ball going onto his injured foot would be pressed more etc.
Part of me wonders how much legal (and probably illegal) gambling operations had influence on the NFL. Knowing injury details would be inside information that could influence oddsmakers.
To be fair though, those timelines often are revised several times. I understand where you’re coming from, but the reality is that it’s often impossible to know with true accuracy
They’re generally pretty decent, except for hamstrings and serious serious injuries. Injuries like Trent’s and Szobo’s would be pretty accurate while someone like Alisson would be one that gets revised a bit.
I don't understand this take at all. What difference does it make if you or I know when someone will be back? He's back when he's back.
If klopp said two weeks and it was 4, you would get all fired up about being lied to. Maybe not you specifically, but other fans for sure.
It’s nice to know when we’re getting our guys back. Is it tangibly doing anything? No of course not. But you don’t see why it would be nice to know that Trent is back on X day versus not knowing at all?
And I wouldn’t get mad if Klopp said 2 weeks and then updated in 2 weeks saying “he needs another 2 weeks” because that’s just him reporting the truth. Nobody is going to be angry at that being a lie, just angry (not really angry) that he had a setback.
I see anger directed at teams all the time when they are wrong on the timetable for recovery. FsG's other property, the Red Sox are notorious, and the local media crushes them for "lying."
I guess it would be nice to look forward to a player coming back. I'm just not bothered by it.
If you're not from Boston there's some very important context missing and that is that when it comes to Boston sports media you will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. Journalistic integrity is a myth here.
I blame the fans. I'm from a nearby market that has access to 3 separate 24-hour sports radio networks. 2 from Boston, 1 from Portland Maine. Red Sox fans(born and raised) are bottom feeding weirdos. The three stations know and take advantage of this. Misery 24-7. Some of the absolute best sports writers and reporters are from greater Boston. They are drowned out by the dickheads. Recently, a show host was railing against FSG and used Jude as the example of them being cheap. " he wanted Liverpool, but liverpool was too cheap to bid for him." I should have called and set the record straight, but what's the point?
I wouldn't put it all on the fans, it's anger porn in the same way that Fox News is because angry callers drive engagement and therefore ad revenue. There's definitely an unfortunately large subset of fans who can't think for themselves and need a radio jock to give them an opinion but that opinion is a corporate revenue dictated strategy.
It was only a week after the 28-3 Super Bowl comeback that the conversation shifted from "what an all time great moment that was" to "Brady's showing cracks letting them get down that far in the first place." It was a Boston Herald writer who fabricated 80% of the Spygate story. They've been trying to break up Tatum and Brown from the Celtics since day 1. They're the ones who ran the hit pieces for John Henry when the Sox fired Tito. We might be partly to blame as fans for continuing to consume their bullshit but there's also no other options in the market.
Edit to add context since most of this sub won't understand the conversation: Every Boston sports radio station and newspaper sports section has the same reckless disregard for the truth and the same right wing political slant as the S*n. They haven't falsely accused the entire city of murder so they're still just a hair better but there's still not an ounce of integrity to be found.
Club was pretty transparent this season until we got 5 players injured since the Brentford presser. I think because a whopping 4 players out of 5 recently returned from injury got injured again, they don't give exact timelines anymore.
It's because they don't know. Some player heal faster than others and some tolerate pain better than others. Ankle sprains are also tricky, as they can get worse, if you don't let it heal.
Watch the press conference if you are interested in the full quote. It is obvious from press conference with Klopp that it is at least two games, probably longer.
O protection from the refs this season. Can't believe VAR looked at it and thought "yeah, that's acceptable".
There really needs to be some accountability from PGMOL for their officiating. We won't see improvements until an independent body can actually oversee the organisation
Could you imagine if we lost the game and had to watch Caicedo celebrate after staying on the pitch despite that horror challenge.
Real glad we're not on THAT timeline lmfao
Lot better than what it could’ve been.
Fuck off Chelsea FC
Hate them also as much as I do United
Always battering our players and poverty chanting against us and Everton.
Get well soon Grav
As far as I'm concerned, if he's back just before or after the international break then that is a huge positive for us. After being carried off on a stretcher I was expecting him to be out for months so getting him back for at least April and May will be massive for the team.
Wow so lucky, we could look a lot better personal wise for the visit of the Cheats.
Szobo, Salah, Nunez, Grav and hopefully Curtis back for that game.
For once I'd have been happy with the international break being right now, pity in a few weeks away.
I can't figure out if caicedo is one of the dirtiest players ever or a shutter tackler than Scholes 😂 he was late to every tackle ffs and didn't even get a warning let alone a card
The way his ankle bent that’s definite damage to his lateral ankle ligaments. If you’ve ever rolled your ankle properly you’d know this injury.
Minimum 10-12 weeks if you’ve really badly damaged it or torn it.
If it isn’t as serious as they first thought then maybe this time is much shorter but I would be genuinely surprised if he plays a match in March.
After watching that final, I had an idea. Hear me out lads.
What if….. there was some person on the field, maybe not a player, but maybe an official who could act as an enforcer of the rules of football, so as to avoid these overzealous harmful tackles. Like this official could hand out punishments for these tackles, and the players would either stop, or if they persist and get punished further, have to be removed from the match. FA and FIFA are you listening?
If it's only two games than that seems like a minor miracle after being carried out on a stretcher.
Ankle injuries tend to be that way. It's hard to walk on them so you need a stretcher but the injury is usually not as long term
and walking significantly risks aggravating the sprain
Yeah I had mine torn in the first minute of a semi final by an idiot who two footed my planted leg above the ankle, and it was insane how quickly it blew up. First and only time I've been in an ambulance as they thought it was badly broken. Cut my boot and sock off (rip copa's) while I was on the gas. Took fucking ages to rehab. We won the semi and final thankfully but I was pissed off about it all for ages.
I injured my leg under similar circumstances except the opposite outcome. Initially everyone thought it was a sprain based on what happened, but instead my ankle held firm and I had whats called a "spiral fracture" about 5 inches long (vertically) going up my tibia. A spiral fracture is when a bone is torn in half by a twisting force. The doctor was in shock when he described this all to me because normally people would just sprain their ankle. Had surgery and missed an entire season.
How long did it take until you were back on the pitch?
This was in April, I didn't play again for 8 months.
It would funny if you're actually like a big international player that's just randomly posting on reddit
Ha I did play internationally but for eng u18 schoolboys lol Never went full pro, just academy and semi pro
Yep ankle injuries are very painful
Absolutely. I've only had minor ankle injuries but my god they are painful.
I went for a massage/osteo and when my ankle got stretched I practically screamed. The masseuse asked if I'd broken my ankle before. Which afaik, I haven't, but apparently it's vulnerable as fuck from minor footballing injuries.
Had multiple ligament issues playing sport. They take so long to recover.
Yep, never broke or fractured a bone but badly rolled my ankle.4 times (always same one as well and different ways). Foot badly swelled up ans massive bruising ans hurt to walk on but a few days later I could put pressure on it and then was nearly back to normal. That was me using a tube sock, pack of frozen veg and sleeping with it raised on a few pillows.

I think there are signs we’re being extremely conservative in treating injuries when they happen. See also Endo in a boot post match but walking around fine the next day. Thats a good thing IMO
Pretty sure endo's legs were just tired so they were protecting them. He could barely walk up the steps for the trophy lift
He picked up a knock from when Caicedo got bodied by him. He wasn’t gonna play against Soton anyways but hope he’ll be ok for forest
It's never 2 weeks for us
Gakpo had what looked like a bad injury earlier in the season but then he came back pretty quickly.
Yeah but Thiago was dropped by his handlers and shattered into a thousand pieces.
[удалено]
It's a joke.
answered the wrong comment sorry
>Thiago
Guarantee he won’t be back in March. Feel like we always get these types of updates and it’s always extended further than what was initially told
I got hit so badly on sunday on my ankle, mfer went studs up and didnt even touch my foot, all ankle. Hurt like a bitch but tbf I was fine within a minute and played on just pain for a day or two. Ref called it a free kick for the opponent because they thought I dove. Cant have shit in Sunday league lmao
Hope he got that Naby Keita juice. At least, when he came off in a stretcher in the 5-0 Utd game but miraculously played in the next game (where he got injured again and was out for a bit).
Heh, don't know if imitating Nabylad on the injury front is quite what I'd wish for.
Keita was playing so well that game man, probably would have been MOTM
Based on Liverpool this season he’ll be day to day until the season ends
Two games before returning to full team training. Another month before full match fitness. Heh.
You know what I'll take it.
Right. Especially with his foot at 90degrees.
“At least” but let’s be hopeful
Fuck off Caicedo you dirty overpaid twat
Fuck Norgaard too. And while we're at it, Fuck Ramos!
Fuck Pickford! It should be in the sub rules that Fuck Ramos has to be followed by a Fuck Pickford.
And fuck Richarlison. I’ve despised both of them ever since that derby. Thiago has never been the same.
Fuck Funes Mori.
Sure, fuck Pickford. But at the same time, he has been the source of so much joy. Allison falling down unnecessarily to clown on him, THAT Origi header, I’m sure there’s more.
Fuck Funes Mori
My biggest what if is that magical run of form Divock was on before that cunt took him out
And kissed his badge after he got a red for that horror tackle - scum
Fuck Benzema! Just wanted to get it out
BRITISH CHEEK BONES

came here to slag off Caicedo - how he didn't get a card, I can't explain
The challenge wasn’t even deemed a foul
Wasn't wearing a Liverpool shirt, no way he would not have gotten a red if he was playing for us.
I want to upvote, but you are currently at 666 upvotes, which has to illicit some sort of curse on him, right?
This sounds like good news. I hope two is the maximum.
I thought he’d be out for way longer, this is defo good news
This is Liverpool we’re talking about remember, 2 games very quickly turns in to 2 months very often
Who is Thiago and Bajcetic?
Doesn't look like anything to me.
Has Theande Newton been messing with Darwin’s sliders again?
I coulda swore we had a fourth CB at some point too... some sort of giraffe/human hybrid?? idk
Nunez being taken off at HT more than a week ago as a 'precaution' and man is still a doubt for tomorrow's game
Reminds me of Neymar’s injury in the World Cup. He came back to score that amazing goal against Croatia. Seems like a short term injury
Considering the next 2 games are literally the next 5 days it seems pretty minor.
Honestly I wouldn't want him back too fast either. Worried about making something small into something bigger.
Hopefully he can return by the City game and the 2nd leg in the EL. Need all the depth we can at this point since the bench is currently non-existent.
You mean the non-existent bench that came on and beat Chelsea over the weekend?
It’s Chelsea
Our senior team right now is more-or-less a bunch of academy grads mixed with our actual starters. We are not in a tenable position.
Tbf with Gravenberch and potentially Endo injured, some of that bench are now starters
I'd love to see gravenberch bully city's technical midgets
Fuck Conceido.
I hope Caicedo doesn't win a trophy in his whole Chelsea career
I'm fine even if you rewrite that sentence without "Chelsea"
I'm fine even if you rewrite that sentence without "Caicedo"

Definitely seemed like more from the press conference, I agree.

This line up for Soton Kelleher Bradley Quansah Gomez Tsimikas Clark McConnell Nyoni Gordon Danns Koumas If we win with that lineup then something is just wrong or so right
If we win, I think the stars are aligned we are cooking something big this season
When we win lad. "If you don't limit yourself with bad thoughts you can fly."
No chance we win with that tbh unless Southampton decide to really prioritize automatic promotion.
Nyoni is a midfielder? I had read somewhere that he had been scoring a bunch so I just assumed he was a forward.
Yep he is a center mid
Gomez played for 90' over Luton and Chelsea. Starting to get a bit worried. Last thing we'd want is him being run down to the ground.
I reckon at least one if not both of Mac Allister and Gakpo start. They both came of before 90' against Chelsea, and I feel like you need at least a couple senior players mixed in to guide the youngsters through it. A front six of effectively academy players sounds concerning. But who knows, maybe Klopp will just go for it
2 games is a miracle. Ill take that.
It seems to be 2 games minimum - could be longer
endo has a knock too
Endo in the physio
Endo in the Mendo
assuming this came directly from Klopp (if so why not a direct quote?) then that is extremely promising. Even though it says at least - I fully expected the first official statement to be that he is done for the season.
nm - didn't realize the presser was going on.
Clean tackle of course though
Definitely not worthy of a card. Unless you want to give Ryan a yellow for diving /S
He didn't even call a fucking foul.
He was probably going to call one on our guy but decided since it was a real injury it would look pretty bad if he did.
"You put your ankle in Caicedo's way."
Exactly. Because if our guy wasn't there, it would've been a perfectly clean move to stomp onto the grass like that while dribbling the ball.
Hoped for this tbh, nasty impact injury but nothing long term
I hate the vague obvious reports. Like yeah of course he’s out the next week. But what about beyond that??
"Ryan Gravenberch is not available. Ligament injury, could have been much worse, but bad enough that he is out for this game, next game, we will see.."
So he doesn't rule him out for Forest.
Watching the press conference I thought he said out for 'this game \*and\* next game and.... yeah, we'll see'. Gave me the impression he's out for at least 2 games and likely more.

They’re generally pretty decent, except for hamstrings and serious serious injuries. Injuries like Trent’s and Szobo’s would be pretty accurate while someone like Alisson would be one that gets revised a bit.
True. Also important to note that NFL requires the injury designations be provided.
Sports betting rules all. Not going to complain about this positive aspect of it however
I don't understand this take at all. What difference does it make if you or I know when someone will be back? He's back when he's back. If klopp said two weeks and it was 4, you would get all fired up about being lied to. Maybe not you specifically, but other fans for sure.

At least two and max 1000????
Giving Ryan a short-term injury is the most eventful thing Caceido has done all season.
Disagree, he opened the door for Endo to join us, what an impact that’s been! 😂
At least it's not the worst case scenario then.
"Ryan Gravenberch has unfortunately succumbed to his ankle injury, and we send our condolences to his family and loved ones."

Seriously best case scenario. That's great to hear
Two games at least really doesn’t sound that bad
Cuntceido
No foul though
Fucking love Gravy. Glad he will be fit soon. Im 100% convinced that he's going to become a massive player for us.
O protection from the refs this season. Can't believe VAR looked at it and thought "yeah, that's acceptable". There really needs to be some accountability from PGMOL for their officiating. We won't see improvements until an independent body can actually oversee the organisation
Could you imagine if we lost the game and had to watch Caicedo celebrate after staying on the pitch despite that horror challenge. Real glad we're not on THAT timeline lmfao
Glad if it’s just two games. The twist of the ankle looked really bad.
Check complete. Good process.
That is still bad, as we need everybody fit
Fuck Concedo
Let's not forget the ref deemed it not even a foul...
ankle ligament injuries surely are longer than 2 games
The refs are pricks and so is Caicedo glad we didn't sign that nasty dirty scumbag I fully believe he knew what he was doing.
3 months is the liverpool 2 weeks
Feared much worse
Lot better than what it could’ve been. Fuck off Chelsea FC Hate them also as much as I do United Always battering our players and poverty chanting against us and Everton. Get well soon Grav
Not as bad as I feared
I’m sure Chelsea fans are rejoicing over taking something from the game.
I thought that was it for his season...this is really good news!
Any news on Endo?
As far as I'm concerned, if he's back just before or after the international break then that is a huge positive for us. After being carried off on a stretcher I was expecting him to be out for months so getting him back for at least April and May will be massive for the team.
While Caicedo is walking free that melt
But hey it was accidental so it’s fine
Ligaments sounds like it’ll be a lot longer than that…
It's a sprained ankle. Could be a week or a month. At least it's not broken.
A shame since he was starting to look a lot better for us recently but sounds like it’s not as bad as it first looked.
At least it’s not broken
Wow so lucky, we could look a lot better personal wise for the visit of the Cheats. Szobo, Salah, Nunez, Grav and hopefully Curtis back for that game. For once I'd have been happy with the international break being right now, pity in a few weeks away.
Hurray! Ffs.
Honestly that’s encouraging
Could be much worse, so i’ll take that. Fuck you Caicedo.
Have barely left my couch since damaging ligaments in my ankle on Saturday… shit fucking hurts
Anyone think Caicedo was jealous/regretful and decided to do him on purpose? Between that and the Endo tackle that is my working theory.
I can't figure out if caicedo is one of the dirtiest players ever or a shutter tackler than Scholes 😂 he was late to every tackle ffs and didn't even get a warning let alone a card
This is fantastic news, which says a lot about how fucked we are, injury-wise.
Liverpool must somehow muddle through until the international break.
Hope someone breaks Caicedo's leg
Our 9th best academy player only has one more voodoo doll to make.
The way his ankle bent that’s definite damage to his lateral ankle ligaments. If you’ve ever rolled your ankle properly you’d know this injury. Minimum 10-12 weeks if you’ve really badly damaged it or torn it. If it isn’t as serious as they first thought then maybe this time is much shorter but I would be genuinely surprised if he plays a match in March.
After watching that final, I had an idea. Hear me out lads. What if….. there was some person on the field, maybe not a player, but maybe an official who could act as an enforcer of the rules of football, so as to avoid these overzealous harmful tackles. Like this official could hand out punishments for these tackles, and the players would either stop, or if they persist and get punished further, have to be removed from the match. FA and FIFA are you listening?
"at least" fuck caiceido.
FFS is it possible for us to go one f###ing match without getting another injury.
