Navarro - Ruptured Cruciate Ligament of the Knee

[sam86]

How lengthy are we talking with these sort of things? Will he play again this season? Back after Christmas?

P.S. Gutted for Navarro Recover soon!

At least 6 months.

 

[Sergei Gotsmanov]

Could be less than 6 months if all goes well.

From physio room website:

"In addition to advances in the surgical procedure, there have been advances in post-operative rehabilitation that have seen a return to sports activity, in most cases, in less than six months."

get well soon lad

we will miss him!

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Usually most of a season with a cruciate ligament, frankly would have been better if he's broken his leg.

Bugger.

 

[8ace]

Bad news - feared the worst when I saw it.

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Look after yourself recuperate hard and maybe you'll get a runout when we've secured a play off place

Would it be unsuitable to do an NSC get well soon card like the one for Jimmy Mac?

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Yeah was just thinking that- we should get one done.

 

[Gerbil]

agree. Ligament problems can be very nasty indeed.

 

[JBizzle]

Sh*t. Get well soon chap. You'll be missed in the defensive midfield role.

Would need a very very big card

How long is his current contract

IF he was out for this season at least he'd have a nice first game of next season to look forward to in some shiny stadium or other

 

[KneeOn]

Yes

Why?

Very true.A clean break would have been better.Nav will be out for a year now.

 

[ROKERITE]

Other than a particularly bad break it certainly would. Fortunately, there have been massive advances in the treatment of cruciate ligament injuries, over the last decade or so. It's the injury that still brings a shudder to Sunderland supporters of my age, because of Boxing Day, 1962.
